Lilith: In my imagination, when I moved to SA, I'd discover Shiner was lots cheaper down here than in Dallas and I'd just be drinking it all day. So much for imagination.
Daigle: Dude, there are Magnolia Pancake Houses in SA now, but the wait is so long in the morning, I haven't had the patience to get in yet. We're talking hour plus waits.

Whoah. I just had to look that up. Different company altogether. I had to make sure because I still keep in touch with my Austin friends I worked with and I was *sure* they would have told me if another location was opening up somewhere.
Also: Shows how out of touch I am. I didn't realize you moved down to central/south Texas from the hellscape of DFW.

Are you serious? They have the same name but are not related to the Austin institution of eternal fame? FOR SHAME! You know they have to be trading off of the name!
It's Magnolia Cafe that's in Austin. Also looks like that place in SA is only breakfast and lunch, not the glorious 24/8 of Magnolia Cafe. :)

Oh, DFW is not a hellscape. You're thinking of Houston...
Hey, I live in that hellscape. It may be a 100-mile wide suburb, and it may have the world's largest beltway (bigger than Shanghai's!) once they finish off Grand Parkway/99 Freeway, and you may not be able to go anywhere in less than 15 minutes, and we may have drive-through everything, and...
OK, say what you will about Houston, but I'd still take Houston traffic over Dallas. Except 610 and 59. Nuke that nightmare from orbit, PLEASE.
(And make mine Shiner Black. Never been that big of a fan of the regular stuff.)

I'm not in hiding, but I think you're mistaken, Mairkurion. :)
