Whatever the case, I'd love to attend this Harkin gig sometime. Even if you aren't a Democrat, I'm sure it would be a fun day.

And damn good, served with gravy. Myself, I generally prefer my steak grilled, charred on the outside, cold red on the inside, cool pink between. Mancini's medium rare does it every time.

Well, do they really fry steaks there, or is that just its name? I agree with Senator Franken as far as steak goes - I like it too. Don't know who Tom Harkin is, though. Oh. Ok.
