it's skyline time

i spent last week in my hometown, lovely montgomery, oh. one of the highlights of every visit is dining at the greatest restaurant on earth, skyline chili. i'm seriously addicted--i display many of the physiological symptons, including craving, shaking, and ritualistically eating my meal. it starts as soon as the delta pilot says "please lift all trays and raise seatbacks as we are beginning our initial descent into dayton, ohio" and must be satiated within 12 hours of arriving in montgomery.

ask anyone in from southwest ohio and they'll have an opinion. if they prefer skyline's
garbage competitor you know you are talking to a first-class asshole.

skyline not only provided me with many, many meals of godly food, but my first job as well. at the age of 15 i spent the summer chopping onions, cleaning dishes, mopping the floor and making chili as a kitchen boy. i got one free meal per shift. i was in heaven. what's great is that the three managers who i worked for (corky, dan, and dave) all still work there.
