good morning! i’m sitting here in my hotel room, half-way between last night’s show and tonight’s show – completely unsatisfied by the continental breakfast (no big surprise). according to Webster, the word continental means:

1 forming or belonging to a continent.
2 coming from or characteristic of mainland Europe.
3 pertaining to the 13 original colonies of the US.

i can personally vouch for the fact that my continental breakfast meets none of these three requirements for being continental. furthermore, it barely meets the requirements for a basic breakfast. i chose the mini-bowl of raisin bran over the stale mini-muffins. lovely.
