a.) Bernie’s is blowing up and I couldn’t be happier for them. They serve excellent food with a smile and deserve all the good things coming their way.
b.) I just got back from Boston and had some of the crappiest donuts of my life at a Dunkin. They are far, FAR, inferior to Shipley’s. I don’t see how they can even hope to compete.
Forget the donuts–they have the worst coffee imaginable, and yet people seem to flock to it. Why, why, why?
What does Aramark think of BBB?
We used to have Dunkin Donuts here. I remember the one on Shepherd to be a fairly dreary place with not a lot of customers. I think Krispy Kreme did in the Houston locations.
Hyperloop??? a people pipeline? Geez, Texas should be leading the nation in this technology!!! Might be the answer to the long sought highspeed rail to San Antonio & Dallas – heck just plop one in with the Keystone XL – the Keystone XL+. Tack a few onto the sides of the freeways and they could serve double duty as guardrails.
Hyperloop instead of high speed rail between Houston and Dallas please. If LA to SF would cost ~$7 billion, we should be able to build links between Houston, DFW, Austin, AND San Antonio for the $10 billion that private high speed rail group is looking to spend.
Can we replace the HOT lanes with hyperloop tubes? Who wouldn’t pay $5 bucks to travel from The Woodlands to Downtown in 5 minutes? It’d be cheaper than gas! That’d be a game changer.

How about a hyperloop tube to Galveston? Think of how efficient evacuation would be with an on coming hurricane.
I only stopped at Bernie’s once. The burger was not very good. So many other better ones around…
@ Bernard – It sounds like an unfortunate self image issue that you don’t much care for Bernie’s burgers. No offense, but I agree. About the burgers, that is.
