As The Waffle Burns: 10th Anniversary Edition

Ten years ago who would have thought a book about Waffle House would enjoy so much success? I guess there is something about hanging out under the random flicker of the big yellow sign that never loses its allure to late night drinkers and early morning recovering alcoholics. Hell, you may even come in one midnight as the former, and leave the next morning as the latter! Sarcasm has the high seat when it comes to life's highlights. I use to say that God took a back seat to sarcasm ages ago, but how can that even be said without a little bit of sarcastic twang dripping from the end of the sentence? Way down here, under the big yellow sign, we have seen all types of coming's and going's. Everyone moving, quickly back and forth from their where to's and their gotta get done's. Being in the middle of such riddle, I suppose, is what sets us apart. 'Location, location, location' the saying goes, and where better to be but right smack in the middle of where ever it is you've been and where it is you're going? Irony is a word used in the English language to describe something that explains its opposite, but at Waffle House there's no room for irony, here! Only good old fashioned, pure, straight down to the bone sarcasm is accepted here, and don't ya'll forget it! All too often, the drama that frequents our daily life, under the big yellow sign, is referred to as a spin-off of the world-renowned soap opera 'As the World Turns'. So, in our little yellow book, now updated under the big yellow sign, you will find updated stereotypical definitions of our regular customers from around the nation, a few tragic tales, reminiscent and inspired by long-term customers, philosophy from the Waffle House guru, and of course, a section chock full of jokes. If you are in need of enlightenment, a good meal, or simply a laugh, pour yourself into a booth at your nearest Waffle House, crack open these texts to a random story, and enjoy a world famous waffle under the big yellow sign 'As The Waffle Burns'.
