True.

There's a place down the road, a sports bar & grill. Winners sports bar.

I first sat down in there with one of my cow-orkers and ordered a bleu
cheese burger, medium rare.

The waiter was a bit of a sissy and said, "Ooohhh,I love that burger medium
rare! Hardly anyone orders them like that."

Quite possibly the best burger I've ever had.

He was a great waiter and he got a great tip. Hotdamn! I love a good, med
rare burger.

If the beef is beyond reproach, it can be served rare. If they're serving
shit, it best be cooked to death.
