Spent 6 days in Bama....mostly getting my new 'star-card'-license-ID. Six observations.
1. Rode Delta.....curious....their attendants are all mostly 50-plus years old, and 25-to-40 pounds extra.
2. Ate at the Waffle-House (Athens, Ala) twice. Got the bill at the end.....each time....waitress wrote on the back 'Jesus-loves-you'. You don't get that in Germany. Yeah, I tipped extra.
3. Ate fantastic catfish, bar-b-q each day.
4. Upon return via Frankfurt Airport....customs lady saw me heading toward the 'all-others' entry point with my German visa card....stopped me, and said 'son, you use the EU point instead....you are one of us'. I felt special....but to be honest.....I'd rather it not get around that I'm 50-percent EU.
5. Stopped at a Buc-ees. Spent about an hour walking around. Yeah, it'll kill regular gas stations, but I'm not really seeing interior shopping as a plus-up there. They do have five-star bathrooms....I admit.
6. Just seems like a awful lot of medication TV advertisements. Some point....local plastic surgery shop (Huntsville)....telling you if you get seen by Doc-so-and-so.....he can lessen your butt appearance/size. Seems like folks are prioritizing butt size.
