These are a few of my least...

On Saturday we went to this so-called Austrian-themed place for a late breakfast, which I deemed late enough to be lunch. I’ve decided to write a blog posting about it.

They had some fancy items on the menu, like crepes and stuff with hollandaise sauce on it. I guess that’S enough to qualify for the Austrian designation. I had eggs and a nice slab of ham.

They had a big mural painted on the outside of the place that frightened me. It was a picture of two deformed Austrian children who were possessed by demons and condemned to wear perverted pygmy costumes for their entire lives. As we entered I became concerned that these creatures might actually be inside, perhaps bussing tables or filling coffee mugs and water glasses. I didn’t want to cross either of their paths, but I manned up and pretended everything was fine.

I know you don’t believe me so I took a picture (see Figure 1, below).



Figure 1. Mutant Alpine mountain children. Wisely, they are kept away from the dining room and are confined to the kitchen where they clean the grease traps and yodel--or maybe just shriek--off key.
