   [1]A Typical Joe says:

     According to Fox 5 Atlanta Evening News on August 17, 2005, 2% of
     all eggs produced in the United States are served at a [2]Waffle
     House.

   He links to a Wikipedia [3]article on Waffle House, not to the
   original local news story. But is that remotely possible? 2004 egg
   production in the US was 89.1 billion eggs, as [4]everyone knows.
   That's nearly 18 billion eggs -- for Waffle House? They don't even
   have a restaurant in New York or New Jersey (not that I could eat
   there anyway)! But who's eating all those eggs?! (What kinda genes
   would you have to have?!) Isn't this a little out of line?

   I didn't eat any food for 25 hours yesterday, if you're wondering...
