Despite your gender, religion, or social status in Midland-Odessa, we all have one thing in common.  At some point, each of us has driven around frantically searching for somewhere to eat.

Typically, when you ask someone where they want to go for a bite to eat, the standard reply is usually "I don't know."

Isn't that just the worst?
