Street interviews with homeless in Portland they tell you straight up "there's so many homeless because the city makes it so easy to get high and be comfortable staying homeless"

It is mediocre. If you want a good diner experience, georges. If its the weekend and you want foodie breakfast, split or lindbergs. Morning day is the best around. Another good diner on the southside is scramblers. Gaileys is a springfield staple. The order across the street has the best coffee in town and its roasted special for them by coffee ethic. The food used to be divine but they changed their menu a while back. This town breakfasts right. Dont waste your time and a chain that is just okay.

So you will continue to profiteer on tragedy? Patrick, I have been a customer of yours for 20 plus years. This whole incident knowing both sides and seeing you dance around doing what you said you would do for months after you inserted yourself unasked and unwelcome to tragedy and made it worse has destroyed any credibility you have with myself and many other Business and Social leaders in Springfield Missouri.

I remember when I was going to college and was car less after the military and would pass by Thai Express on Bennett and Glenstone when biking to school or work, your Father always made sure I was fed and safe, he even helped me get rides when it was raining that fall. He never asked for a dime beyond the standard 5-6 bucks for a plate of noodles and chicken.

Amazing how far the apple has fallen from the tree, sad.

I didn’t read your post but what would he have to do in my eyes to be forgiven?

Admit publicly he did use the child’s death for publicity and profit, admit he tried to hire a defamation lawyer to stop the story from being ran and no one would pick up the case, admit his ego got in the way of paying the family due to being called out for making their daughters death about his new resturaunt, admit he pushed his father out years ago with a made up story about abuse and resign from the company.

That would be about it for me and I feel a majority of springfieldians. This is after 20 years of going there 2-3 times a week.

Oh I have bolt cutters and was prepared to cut it myself, but they wouldn’t let me. And they won’t cut it… which leaves me no option but to use a locksmith. They even had someone they recommended. A little sketch if you ask me. So naturally I won’t use them.

I don't think so. We definitely have shit credit. Now, my wife alone makes three times our rent, and that means something as well, but we've been here a year with garbage credit. They even let us bump another couple off the wait list because they were being pokey and hard to contact when we were ready to write a check and move boxes. So if you want to pull the trigger on one of their properties, get your finances lined up and try to go as fast as possible =P
