I'm sure most of you who read Dave's blog about his broken femur have developed a sudden craving for red meat. Well, maybe you haven't, but I have. Honestly, have you seen a better looking burger? It's the Grumpy's Burgermeister. For sure it will be the death of me but dammit, burgers taste good. Pork chops taste good. Bacon tastes good.
