Steakhouses ?-----> " Greenspan Runs Out on the Check at Sizzler "... ;-)
Market watchers call the " dine-and-ditch " a bearish sign
March 29 — The stock market, already roiled by reports of flagging consumer confidence and disappointing corporate earnings, received another blow today when it was revealed that Federal Reserve Board Chairman Alan Greenspan had run out of a Sizzler restaurant in Manhattan Beach, Calif., last Saturday without paying his tab.
GREENSPAN, who had dined early in the evening to take advantage of the Sizzler’s Early Bird Meal Deal, ate a large dinner consisting of potato skins and Hibachi Chicken followed by several visits to the restaurant’s tempting Sundae Bar, according to Shondra McMullen, the waitress who served him.
“When I was adding up his check, he started telling me about rising energy prices and a deflationary spiral in Japan and all, and I guess I kind of nodded off,” McMullen says. “And when I woke up, he was gone.”
