Today I tried it again, to see what their tenders were like.
I upgraded to the "hot" buffalo sauce, and paired them with the fries and another root beer. An important thing that would have been nice to know on the last visit is that they do have blue cheese dressing, you just have to ask. The tenders were significantly less greasy than the wings, probably due to the fact that there's basically no fat inside them to render. This also complicates the saucing, as they don't generate a nice drippy coating. I also wasn't totally sure about the hot sauce, as it was kind of lacking in flavor. Hot for hot's sake isn't really the goal.
So, I'm kind of unsure at this point. It's not the best, but it's pretty much the only place that does wings here. They do make decent fries, so that helps.

- I saw this report about science and engineering employment by state. Interesting by itself, although their definition of "intensity" seems a bit odd. I did a quick mental sort of the states, noted a certain correlation, and set out to hunt down that list of how much each state gets from the federal government as a ratio of the taxes paid. Basically, which states support the others. I found that here at the Tax Foundation.
Then I plotted it up:
Conclusions that can be drawn from this:
- Everything is still a powerlaw.
- States with more science and engineering employment tend to contribute more to the government than they get back.
- An alternate expression of (2) is that if you want to be a state that gets lots of free money, you don't need to bother having lots of science.
- The District of Columbia was excluded from the calculation because basically everything is funded at the federal level, and so it doesn't represent the standard case.
