We grabbed a bite at Dee's,
234 E. College Ave., a cute little
nook that's a great meeting place
for people on campus or down
town.
There was outside seating, but
we were forced to eat inside due
to this town's ridiculous weather.
The inside is spick-and-span,
and Tom, the owner, waited on
us himself. Our dining experi
ence went a little something like

Brad: "Hey, want to know the
best thing about hot dogs? They
don't bark when you try to eat
them"
Katy: "I have no idea why I
agreed to eat a hot dog. It's get
ting warmer and I have to wear
a bikini eventually"
Luckily enough, Dee's has
alternatives for weird people
that, for some reason, don't like
hot dogs.
Katy: "They're just toenails
and elbows."
Brad: "Get a Not Dog, it's the
vegetarian hot dog, but if you're
going to whine, get a sourdough
panini or a romaine salad or the
soup du jour. Or the Dee-licious
Nachos. It all looks good."
Katy: "Well what are you get

Brad: "I'm getting the Chicago
and the Texas hot dogs, 'cause
they have the most stuff on
them. But I'm avoiding the Infa
mous Heart Stopper because I'm
trying to live to 30."
Dee's offers a large seating
area with tables and a bar.
