I don't know what the secret to this place is; that is, the secret to having an enjoyable dining experience. Is the secret to come early in the day so the food is fresh? Is it to bring ear-plugs to drown out the sound of running children?

If you thought that beautiful desert sunsets were the only red miracle in our evening skies, you are sorely mistaken. This Saturday early evening, Arizona will be witness to a full lunar eclipse shortly after sunset. While the earth's shadow begins to cross in front of the moon, the majority of the refracted light off the earth's atmosphere that hits the moon will be red, giving it a lovely red glow. At least, that's how I'm told it works.

A New York City yuppie moved to the country and bought a piece of land. He went to the local feed and livestock store and talked to the proprietor about how he was going to take up chicken farming. He then asked to buy 100 chicks.

"That's a lot of chicks," commented the proprietor.

"I mean business," the city slicker replied.

A week later the yuppie was back again. "I need another 100 chicks," he said.

"Boy, you are serious about this chicken farming," the man told him.

"Yeah," the yuppie replied. "If I can iron out a few problems."

"Problems?" asked the proprietor.

"Yeah," replied the yuppie, "I think I planted that last batch too close together."
