HE DIDN'T SAY RARE!!!

     The other day at the Burg Grocery, someone was testing a new outdoor grill for the store. In turn some of us were treated with a "test" hamburger. They were well-done or should we say creamnated. One of the employees mentioned he liked his more medium rare. Of course, that reminded me of a story.

     Many years ago,1960's, while dining one evening at a restaurant called, Rocky's White Shutter Inn, something very unusual was overheard.

     A "gentleman" at an adjoining table was having words with the waiter and it was getting louder and louder. At some point, the guy was clearly heard saying the following: "Take the steak out of the refrigerator, sit it on the counter for a few minutes and then bring it to me."

     Obviously, he didn't want it "rare" but, "raw." I don't remember much else that happened in that restaurant that night, but, I know it grossed out most everybody there. Takes all kinds!!
