HARVARD’S GOT A PLAN – by Steve Nadis
In the midst of its worst economic crisis in decade, Harvard University has announced a series of cost-cutting measures aimed at bringing its budget in line. Foremost on the list is the elimination of pancakes at breakfast. Not having gone to Harvard myself, I’m probably not smart enough to have realized that pancakes are so expensive and that doing away with them can be a signficant cost-saving strategy. As the United States is in crisis too, we might want to consider something like this nationwide, although I fear my daughters will protest and possibly take up arms. I’ve actually heard rumors to the effect that IHOP is struggling of late, and that franchise might consider whether the elimination of pancakes will help their “financials” too.

You can see that Harvard has their priorities straight. They’ll never be good enough for your daughter…
It’s true the girl(s) does(do) like pancakes. But we have a few years to wean her(them) of that habit, so maybe… S
I’m looking forward to having oatmeal pancakes for breakfast this weekend. Oatmeal, cinnamon and real maple syrup… yum!
I hope you don’t mind feeding a few (hundred) Harvard students, frwdkr… –S
