Maybe orthostatic hypotension from standing so long waiting for a table.

 

Or hypoglycemia due to same.

 

Or vasovagal syncope from stress after eating too much.

 

But I doubt many folks have worried about Uncle Herschel's condition since 1969.

The question, then is: has he just eaten too many pancakes, or is he using his last ounce of strength to get inside and have some pancakes??

 

I would have agreed with you about how many people are concerned with how Uncle Herschel is doing, but lordy lordy, there's sure a lot of MAGA noise about him! So much that CB felt pressured to un-change its logo, which I'm sure will wind up costing tens of millions of dollars.

 

I'm so glad that our national cesspool of YouBoob "influencers" is concentrating on the stuff that matters!

But did they actually get to making the change to the new one, or did the un-changing just save the stores a whole lot of money since they didn't have to?

I of course don't know how far along the process was, but the individual restaurants would have had to change their outside signs, their menus, their placemats, their company letterhead, etc. etc. etc ...and I'm sure that some of that was already done and paid for. My guess is that it was already pretty far along, since the company announced it. They would expect the change to be if not already visible, visible quite soon.

 

But yes, once they'd decided to bow to MAGA, the sooner they announced the reversal, the better. 

 

Such a ridiculous series of developments is one reason you never want to be a franchisee. I would never invest in or operate a business with some higher authority telling me what to do.
