Free pancakes at IHOP on Tuesday, February 28th

Beginning just a few minutes ago here on the east coast, IHOP is offering three free pancakes to everyone who comes in today (no take-out, though). You are not obliged to buy anything, though you should tip well lest your eternal abode be the lake of boiling hot boysenberry syrup. Also they'll ask you if you would like to donate the regular price of the pancakes (or any other amount) to a local charity.

You can verify this at http://www.ihop.com/ if you'd like to be sure this is worth forwarding to others.

What historical leader am I?

foozini made me do it, so there. ( How apt. Ashoka is also my favorite charity. )

Watch what happens when people conspire to act legally -- in this case, to obey the 55mph speed limit on a major interstate highway in tandem, thus forcing everyone behind them to do the same.
