Is In-N-Out really as good as many Californians make it out to be?

Hell yeah! It is our own personal treasure that no one else can have. There is a lot of love in it. It's original and a must if you ever go to Cali. Ask for the "Hidden Menu" or have it done "Animal Style."

If you were a type of shoe, what kind of shoe would you be and why?

If you were a TV sitcom, which one would you be?

What is your favorite class so far? Have you learned anything interesting in any of your classes that you'd like to share?
