Most of my vacations end up with some odd stop because of something I read or watched. On the way home from FL we detoured to have dinner at the Dawsonville Pool Room. It was exactly how 80s kid NASCAR fan me pictured it. Sadly they were out of current fatguy me size shirts.

I’m starting to regret not heading to Bowman Gray this weekend but there’s no way I could take a weekend off this close to my vacation.

Share if you’re Gen X and you grew up: - Licking lead paint off the walls - Drinking leaded gasoline straight from the pump - Chewing on a big bar of lead whenever you were bored And you turned out fine!!!!

If you’re infuriated by this very good story, may I suggest preordering my forthcoming narrative nonfiction book about how private equity hurts workers and communities?
