Wow, what a prospect! Two erudite men vying to buy me American street-food.

Hang on, this is a dream right?
Well, I once read somewhere that 'A true gentleman will always give another the honor of paying the bill'. Of course, this was from a book on etiquette I picked up at %90 off from the discount table, so there might be a bias.

The beef order proceeds. It is at the butcher and my partners have submitted the work order. I'm already trying to decide if I start with a steak, or make burgers or steak sandwiches. Pan fry in cast iron skillet or put on the grill....... Bear in mind that this is half of what they consider a normal order. At 1/8th of a cow, I only expect a few short ribs, and maybe 3 of each type of steak.

This approximates how I feel, although for "Wells Fargo wagon" substitute "meat wagon"....and then spend 30 minutes erasing the negative connotations of the phrase.
