Success has many fathers, but failure is an orphan.And speaking of Steve, he seems to enjoy the mention in Bruni's article and feel his prodding moved Stupak in the right direction.

By the way, it's one thing that Plotz can't spell fundido, but an entirely different thing when someone who has set high expectations for his highly anticipated opening to misspell Chicharrones:

[edited] Actually, he says the opposite - that "it can’t be possible that at the time that I posted my article, Stupak wasn’t already thinking about opening a Mexican restaurant that revolved around a progressive approach" - so why he's so pleased with himself, I have no idea.

Because he doesn't really believe that Stupak wasn't inpsired by his idea.

Stupak and Irnscrabble. The hate that dares not speak its name.The Second Blogger
Maybe I'm wrong, I don't really remember where I read it.
It was in a blog post by Stupack appended to the Empellon Taqueria site. And it's vanished!
We now have to seek out the grassy knoll.

I'm imagining irnscr and Plotz sharing a table at EC, both in drag, trying to avoid Stupak's devilish gaze.
I see Irnscrabble as the Jack Lemmon type.

Right. And all these places have closed or will soon because Steve Cuozzo didn't give them good reviews.And speaking of Steve, he seems to enjoy the mention in Bruni's article and feel his prodding moved Stupak in the right direction.
