A guy wanders into the Hideaway. "Hello beautiful," he says to the
waitress, "I need a righteous breakfast." He banters with her for awhile and then asks the black guy on a stool what he's going to do the rest
of the day. "I'm going to watch television." Then he admits it's not much intellectual stimulation and the guy says, "well I know
what you mean because I get into my little world here and everything else just disappears." He talks on and on. "When the weather is bad I like to
grow but when it's nice I begin to recede again." There is a feeling of a common mythology being created for a moment and then it
dissipates. "My uncle owned this place years ago."
