The Golden Corral and Pizza Ranch are the only western buffets left.
We used to have Ponderosa, Bonanza, Ryans, Old Country, etc. And a
Western Sizzlin. I really liked their "Trucker's Cut" sirloin. We do
have serveral Asian buffets - Chinese, Indian, etc. My favourite of
those is Flavour of India. When I go there I am often the only light-
skinned, blue eyed diner in the place. Bv)= And they introduced me
to mango I scream. Yuuuuuum.

I'll be/am hooked up all the time at home. and if I go out/to work I take
the portable guy. It really makes a difference. Now I can walk across
the house to the kitchen for a glass of ice water and back without getting
winded. just have to be careful not to trip over my tail".
