It&#8217;s easy! It is totally easy in this country.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I graciously accept Sir!  You set the time and place.  I think we should do it from my house, what with my not currently having an operating vehicle.  What is more, is I shall walk.  Yea though I have 3 herniated discs and degenerative disc disease, I am betting I can have a waffle made within walking distance before your chauferred ass can be driven somewhere that you can get a gun.<\/p>\n<p>I could go to Elsie&#8217;s Magic Skillet which is about a 1\/2 mile away.  But, when I walk in Elsie always gets me the cholesterol clogging dish with the sausage and bacon bits, and I&#8217;d rather not confuse her.  <\/p>\n<p>IHOP makes a Belgian Waffle.  According to their website it is a light and crispy delight, and I have no reason to challenge them on this assertion.<\/p>\n<p>I could, of course, walk further to Bob Evans, but their skillets also kick ass, and I&#8217;ve never had their waffles.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe I will walk a bit further though and go to Crackerbarrel and get an Audiobook while there.  I listened to your book Chris, once in a guard tower, heard all about how you love America and that is why you joined the Peace Corps.  Glad I threw it away.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, what say you we meet at 9am at my place on Saturday?  Your limo will probably fit in the driveway, don&#8217;t hit the motorcycle.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chris Matthews has tossed down the Gauntlet, and TSO, with legs a tingling, is happy to &hellip; <a title=\"OK Chris, I hereby accept your challenge&#8230;\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=11561\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">OK Chris, I hereby accept your challenge&#8230;<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":148,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11561","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-politics"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11561","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/148"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=11561"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11561\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=11561"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=11561"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=11561"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
