Wheel of Lunch

[cjsmith]

Can't decide where to eat? (and you're in the USA, I presume)? Grab the Wheel of Lunch and give it a spin!

I will not publicly admit that I have a shellscript to do the same thing. If I did have such a script, its database would be populated only with restaurants I happened to like, all near my current place of work, and I would be about half way through implementing "attributes" such as "quick" or "inexpensive" -- but only if I had such a script. Of course I don't. Only a computer geek type of person would have such a thing.

It is quite possible that I came by this particular decision procedure through the poem, and quite probable that I first came by the poem thanks to hitchhiker's lovely poetry list.

Now that I've incorporated the decision procedure into my daily life, it's about time I memorized the poem.
