Steak Fingerless....
Andrews Texas is just up the road from Midland, about 30 miles which is our next door neighbor in West Texas terms. Andrews County is one of the richest oil producing areas in the United States, so many of us find ourselves up there on business quite frequently. And when there for the day any oil field guy worth his salt eats at Buddy's Drive-In. It is well known, nay famous, for it's steak fingers, those luscious strips of deep fried meat that people like me can't eat. Oil folks from all over the state are familiar with Buddy's.
But mysterious things have been happening at Buddy's lately. One of the co-owners of the Drive-In recently went missing, simply disappeared, for a week or so, many fearing the worst. Then miracuously she was found in San Francisco claiming no knowledge of how and why she was there. I have not seen any follow-up story on the circumstances of this strange case.
And now today on the morning news the question is posed, "Has Buddy's served it's last steakfinger"? The Schiavo case, Iraq, Korea, Social Security....all important news items, but what inquiring minds in West Texas want to know is....."what's up at Buddy's"? Perhaps local newshawk and fellow blogger Jeff at Archaeo Texture can tell us. Some things are just to important not to know.
