  I was homeless once.  If it wasn't for me asking for help from someone else I would not have saved up enough money to rent a hotel room for the night ($28.47) so I could shower and shave for an interview that I had at a local diner the next day.

  Subsequently, I got the job (making $6.50 per hour) thanks to asking for help from strangers.

  Subsequently, I met my wife at that place.

  Subsequently, I managed to purchase this place 6 years after starting there.

  Subsequently, 5 years later I purchased 3 more stores.

  Now I own the largest chain on the eastern seaboard, including 145 franchise stores and 3 training facilities.  Net worth over 980 million and growing.  If you have ever ate out on the east coast you may have ate at one of my places (Applebee's).

  Thanks to the few people who gave me a fresh start.

  That is awesome. Do not forget it when someone else needs help.

  LOL. Nice try, craig. The place has nothing to do with apples. Good food, good drinks, long wait at dinner hour on the weekends (but every one has a nice bar to wait in.)  Have yet to see a slow Applebee's.  :-)

  I've been begging every night for years.   How long can a headache last anyway ???

  You're going about it all wrong.

  1)  About 5 minutes before bed, hand your wife a bottle of Advil.

  2)  Wife:  "What's this for?"

  3)  You:  "For your headache."

  4)  Wife:  "But, I don't have a headache."

  5)  (should be pretty much self-explanatory.......lol)

  Also useful......for those nights when you're 3 hours and 6 beers late:

  1)  Kick in front door,

  2)  Yell, "Honey!  I'm home!  And I'm horny!!"

  She's guaranteed not to wake up. 

  (very handy for avoiding those late-night "discussions", when all you really need is Gatorade, Advil, and sleep......lol)

  PS:  I can't take credit for either this one...or the headache remedy.  This one is from a comedy routine, and the headache remedy is lifted from an old UK tv ad. (since I'm almost sure that some pedantic twit will point this out sooner or later....lol)

  Well since you are so up and up with Applebees.  Tell the morons to go back with the old burbon street steak seasoning that they had.  They changed it recently and it sucks donkeys.  TERRIBLE change in the seasoning.  It is nothing but eating a huge clove of carlic now.  Only reason I went there was for that steak.  Now will never go to another Applebees again.
