10 or Below Local Food Review - The On The Rocks Burger

A while back I compiled a list of my top ten under, ten dollars favorite things to eat in and around Florence, Alabama.  They were in no particular order, as I love them all almost identically.  But I thought I would start with my good friend's Bar - On The Rocks.

Their burger to me, is hands down the best around.  I love it.  Its a huge slab of burger, cooked just the way you ask for it.  I like mine med - med rare.  And that's the way it comes out.  Everyone orders theirs' differently, but I like mine with grilled onions, pepper jack cheese and bacon.
If you haven't eaten their burger, or haven't tried it this way, I urge you to do so.
I can't help but rush through mine, as ever second that I'm not tasting that burger, its a damn travesty.
If you combine with their fries or the home made potato chips with an ice cold draft beer, you're gonna be in a very happy place.  And starting at $7.00, what's stopping you from going and getting one right now?

John Oubre Henderson

I haven't blogged in quite some time.  More than a couple of years, I believe.  I wrote this for facebook and decided to post it here as well. Its taken me forever to speak publicly about my brother John Oubre Henderson. I never want to do anything for sympathy or to exploit him or his memory. I’ve rewritten this, edited it, almost deleted, but I’m just feeling like it is time to finally put something out into the world. It’s been two years. Two years since I got a phone call and rushed to the hospital, only to find out I was too late. I keep thinking with time, this will get easier. For a while, I was able to pretend that he was still working in Colorado, or hanging out with the children of Antigua. The reality hits more and more, each day...he’s not coming back. So, I try to remember conversations, or how he would respond to something I would say to him. I’ll always be able to remember how he looks, as my house has his image all over. There are days when I’m O...

Growing Up Hurt and Humiliated. Part 1

Its occurred to me that in this particular point in my life, I don't have anything to really complain about. I've got a girl, dog, cat, house, and some whiskey in the freezer. I've grown tired of complaining about shiz I can't change; crappy musicians, politics, bad grammar. As I used to be able to go on these rather entertaining rants about what I was pissed off about at that moment, which you can read right at www.myspace.com/mike_henderson (which I haven't posted to in over a year, and the only reason its kept active, is that's because of where I met my girlfriend six years ago). So here's the thing, I've had the itch to write about things, but can never really get it going. I've done a few game reviews for a site, and that was fun, but then they stopped publishing said reviews. I thought "what could I write about that would be entertaining?" And it suddenly dawned on me...why not tell the stories that have been making my friends...

Why I Left Facebook.

I stopped logging into Facebook just about a month ago, and last week, had to finally deactivate. Facebook became a chore. It was no longer fun to log in and see what my friends and family were posting.  It had become a hotbed for idiotic political posts. At first I had tried filters just to change what people posted, then hiding posts.  Then, just trying to let people know that what they were posting just wasn't true.  It became an exercise in futility.  I was getting angry with people that I spoke very little to in real life. I really want to like people that I don't associate with all the time, and their Facebook updates was making it impossible.  Facebook had been turned into FOX News but turned up to eleven.  (Sorry Kell). Kind of like how myspace had become some kind of glittery ghetto of Mtv. Then, the story I read about Facebook making Billions (with a "B") and not having to pay any State or Federal taxes, and even getting refunds up to 50...
