I think we need a new narrative about the Confederate flag.  I love Waffle House! :-)

"In this stunning and well-researched book, Kevin Levin catches the new waves of the study of memory, black soldiers, and the darker underside of the Civil War as well as anyone has... Levin is both superb scholar and public historian, showing us a piece of the real war that does now get into the books, as well as into site interpretation."

David Blight, Author of Race and Reunion

It’s good to have excitement in your life, and even better if you can work the CBF into it. Actually, Waffle Houses serve a valuable public service. FEMA uses WHs as an immediate indicator of storm damage. If the WHs in a particular area are open, damage is less than catastrophic; if they’re closed, then they know to start rolling in the trailers.

All I can say is, Waffle House is awesome! And I hope Jebediah got a free breakfast for the free advertising and enthusiasm. I shutter to think what he might do once they get an IHOP or Applebees

Still trying to figure out if this is a character ala Larry the Cable Guy after 3 watchings…
