Denny's #1635 Monroe, Michigan 29-Nov-97, 4:30pm EST 1224 N. Dixie Hwy, off I-75 (313) 243-1833

• Attendees: P7A77, Adder, Amie
• Wait-person(s): who the hell knows
• What we ate: uncertain, tho' it's likely Adder had the Southern Slam, since he always has the Southern Slam.
• Okay. Bear with me. I had all my notes from a bunch of Denny's entries all compiled together, and I was preparing to update the pages. And they accidentally got thrown away. Okay, so it's my fault for never remembering to take a pad of paper with me so I end up writing the notes on a napkin or something. And it's my fault for waiting half a year before deciding to update these damn pages. So I'm just gonna make up stuff for the next few entries. If you don't like it, too bad. Not like many of the over one-hundred entries I've written so far are too much different from one another anyway.
• What I remember from this trip is that Amie and I were back in my home town of Toledo for Thanksgiving, and Adder drove up from Oxford to spend it with us. Since I knew Detroit had a whole bunch of suburbs, I figured there'd be a Denny's or two in the area. Amie had never been to Canada, so we justified our trip as being a drive to Windsor. Too bad it was such a rainy cold weekend. The first Denny's appeared rather soon, just over the Ohio/Michigan border. Adder informed me that Monroe was the home of La-Z-Boy, and lo and behold, a billboard corroborated his claim. We were also listening to Evolution Control Committee (courtesy of Adder), so it was a fun ride. The mighty hamburger.
• While I don't remember much from the Denny's experience itself, I do remember where we sat. It was in the row of booths that are to your right as you enter the place.. near the T-intersection of walkway. ...in case you're ever there and want to say "oh, look, that's where they sat!" I'm horrible at writing filler.
• WAY: ???
• Free Stuff: ???

Denny's #1383 Belleville, Michigan 29-Nov-97, 7:30pm EST 2033 Rawsonville Rd, I-94 near Metro Airport (313) 482-3880

• Attendees: P7A77, Adder, Amie
• Wait-person(s): click on the photo and see if you can figure it out by her name tag
• What we ate: some cheesesticks maybe? a milkshake or two, we think...
• So after Monroe we didn't see much. We weren't expecting to at first, since were were just aiming towards Canada, but as we left and headed towards Ann Arbor, there was nothing. Like a damn fool, I forgot to take along one of my many Denny's guides, or even a map, so we were just stuck drivin' on the highway and hoping we'd pass something. By the time we had driven through Ann Arbor, we had given up hope, so, having remembered hearing there were two in the Ann Arbor area (I had only been to one of them previously), I stopped and looked up the address in a phone book, and asked a gas station attendant for directions. It, of course, was on a different highway, and almost half-way back to Detroit. Damn it all.
• Since that's about all I can remember (aside from that evil woman hrassing me and tainting my beverages), I asked Amie to write up something for this entry, too. Well, maybe "asked" is the wrong word. Demanded.
• [from Amie]: Well, after driving all through Ann Arbor looking for possible Denny's, we came to realize that the Denny's we had passed on some freeway near there was the only one we were going to find (and I guess the only one in existence, who the hell cares). The experience there was unremarkable. I decided to torment P7A77 and dumped salt in his water and was generally goofy and silly, and poor Adder wasn't quite sure how to react. I think I had a milkshake, though I could have had cheesesticks, though actually, I think P7A77 had the cheesesticks, I stole one, but enjoyed my Oreo milkshake, what Adder had is anyone's guess.
• WAY: ???
• Free Stuff: crappy take-out and kids menu stuff, judging by the photo
