The Denny's Prayer
 Our Coffee, Who art in Denny's,
  Bottomless be Thy Cup.
 Thy Caffeine come, these shakes be done,
  In Denny's, as it is on Campus.
 Give us this eve our nightly fix,
  And forgive us our tab, as we forgive those
  Who run up tabs against us.
 And lead us not into dining halls,
  But deliver us from decaf,
 In the name of the Coffee, and the Camels,
  And the Holy Muzak,
    AMEN.

collecting things and end up surprised at the weight of the things they're
carying.  A dream they thought might fit someday, something bright and sweet
like a woman, picked up for her shine and somehow never left or at least
never forgotten.  Or an Ambition!  there's a fine item in any man's bag.  A
great, glowing ambition.  They never fade, never wear even when you've
outgrown them.  Always there to look at and remember and play
might-have-been."   -Merlin, Firelord
