Such a kind shark.

OBFood: Our plan was to have barbecue at Big Smith's on the highway
south of Sulphur Springs last night. It's a venerable establishment
with much to recommend it beyond the shingle dump next door. The
onion rings, in particular, are astounding, and yet it's the brisket
and the hot links that keep me coming back.

But it was not to be. The joint was closed, as we discovered pulling
into the parking lot. Big Smith's days off include Tuesdays,
apparently.

Dinner was at an Italian place in Sulphur Springs proper. One of the
specials was "Flounder Franchise" which I took to be a misspelling of
some Italian word I didn't know. The waitress assured us it was
indeed "franchise," however. This led us to speculate about "sea bass
rebate" and "veal lease agreement," neither of which are currently
offered in Sulphur Springs.

Nor is "litigation primavera."
