Flat as a Pancake


The only thing better than pancakes, are "All You Can Eat Pancakes!" The secret to perfect pancakes on this equipment is that box with the crank on it. One turn drops 4 blobs of just the right amount of batter onto the grill. It slides along on an oiled track for fast action.

The next trick is to know when to turn 'em, then when they're done. It's best to leave this to the professionals....
...from Henneberry Pancakes. I caught them in action at the Waukesha Janboree.

Voila! The finished product.

Flatter than a pancake are the President's approval ratings. The latest ABC/Washington Post poll released showed "W" for the first time below 33 percent approval.

"Just 32 percent of Americans now approve of the way Bush is handling his job, while 66 percent disapprove," the poll says. "Bush's work on the economy has likewise reached a new low. And he shows no gain on Iraq; despite reduced violence there, 64 percent say the war was not worth fighting."

The poll further shows that 77 percent of Americans believe the country is on the wrong track."

How much longer? Just check out the Bush countdown clock in the column to the left.
