Sambo's, along with many other restaurants, would give kids a free meal and a little cake on their birthday. Karen was a quiet kid who tried to avoid attention -- like servers singing "Happy Birthday". Her mom thought we should go for a cheap meal, I didn't want to support Sambo's (although it could have been a black-owned franchise). I told Karen at Sambo's they make you stand up on the counter and sing "Happy Birthday" to yourself. Needless to say she didn't want to go.
The Sambo's chain tried to say they didn't understand why people thought they had a racial theme. I guess it was the tiger chasing the black kid until he turned into a puddle. In St. Louis Sambo's became Seasons Restaurants but they didn't last either.
Mathematically proven the Best Blogin Springfield and worrisome to Billy?

I've got opinions about dang near everything. Not only that, I'm retired so I've got the time to tell you them. I keep my mouth shut and my ears open and read a lot. Sometimes I add 2 + 2 and get 5, sometimes I add 2 + 2 and get 4. I strive to abide by the "Fina Philosophy" that "Old Lonesome George" espoused: Work hard, sell a good product, don't try to kid anybody.

No excuse for using that kind of language. It's people like him that give fuel to the folks who want to claim anyone not voting for Obama is racist.
