Just for the record, this group (alt.restaurants) is obsolete, and all
postings should be directed to rec.food.restaurants.  We try and we

If you are reading this in rec.food.restaurants, then your site has

The Fullerton Haf Brau

Located on State College Parkway, just south of Chapman, 
this is a fine restuarant for good family style eating.
BUT THE BIG PLUS is that they brew their own beers!

I stopped in for lunch and found the place quiet at 1:00,
apparently the real business is dinner. The cabbage rolls were
excellent, just like you expect your grandmother to make them.
A lightly seasoned meat and rice, wrapped in well cook cabbage
and covered with with a mild saurkraut. Add to this cook and crisp 
mixed vegetables and seasoned rice and you have a meal worth 
a beer, for 6.95.

Now the beer is worth it alone. 6 brews you can try as samplers.
The Pilsner and Larger were nothing to write about, but the 
Wiesen "wheat" beer, with a lemon twist, sends Corona back 
south of the border. I soaked up the "Earl's Ale", a full bodied,
smooth and gentle brew, lightly sweet and bitter, just perfect 
for a dark beer lover. Finally, the Boch beer was rich and creamy. 
A beer for when you want to drink your meal, this could be considered
a good chaser for Guiness.

My courteous and lovable waitress, Ann, kept the mood light and even
facilitated with my connecting a laptop to the payphone. Like few
other sites, their phones have a pair of grounded plugs beneath them.
(Though this message is being sent from L.A.)

Enjoy the meal!

I would look up NarniaMUSH and found it missing (presumed dead) and I thought

Hi everyone out there in MUD land!
   I was hoping that I could find an experienced MUD player out there who
wouldn't mind spending a little time getting a newbie going on a mud. I was
thinking about LPMUD, but tinymud would also be good, but really I would like
to get started on any mud to get the main ideas. I have two client programs,
TINT, and REXXTALK. I am almost certain rexxtalk should run, I am on an IBM3090
using VM/C I'm not as sure about tint, but it is supposed to run on VMS. I am
not a C programmer, so I am having trouble figuring out the problems, and I
would also like some help getting started. I hope there is someone out there
who will be generous enough to take some time & get my character off the ground
. Thanks in advance for any assistance. Please respond to me personally, since
I don't want to clutter up this newsgroup.

Boomerang Man sells all these and are in his catalog. I have several

Well I'm going to do just what Kemp said to do today on Evans and Novak.
I'm going to vote for George for the reasons Kemp laid out and many more.

Is Kemp wrong or disingenuous?  If he is wrong about such an important
decision as who should be the next president perhaps he really isn't all
that smart.  BTW did he support the "only true conservative, Buchanan,
in the primaries?  No he did not.  Do you think he's going to write in
his own name on election day?  I think not.  Is he voting his
conscience?  I think so.  And I'll vote mine when I pull the lever (or
poke out the hole) for Bush.

Deal with reality.  George is the nominee.

I agree.  Also, those over 18.  MTV has a large project called "Rock
the Vote" to register people at rock concerts.  We should get involved
with that.  We should also pass out Libertarian pamphlets at rock
concerts.  These are $5-$10 per 100 and can be orered  by calling

Not in Oregon.  Here, the Republicrats are "major parties" and everybody 
else "minor parties". There are a different set of
rules and even different manuals for each kind of candidate.

[Noise warning: some of the following may be wrong, but the gist
 is more than accurate enough for USENET exposure.]

In New Hampshire, the major parties (Republican, Democrat,
Libertarian) get state run primaries and much relaxed (non-existant?)
petitioning requirements, at least for the primary campaign.

The winner of the primary automatically goes on the November ballot.

Independent candidates have to petition for inclusion on the November
ballot.  Presumably major party candidates who did not win their
primary would have to petition for inclusion too, but the point is
that ballot access is a whole lot easier if you have major party
status.  Maintaining that status requires winning at least 3% of the
gubernatorial contest.  (Other contests may count, but it is the
gubernatorial contest that won major party status for us.)

                         ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Is this true?  The republican party has not officially nominated a candidate
yet.  Many deadlines for getting on the ballot have already passed.  Is
George Bush on the ballot even though he's not offically nominated?  Or
do the Republican's get a spot on the ballot without saying who is going to
be in that spot?  Would the Libertarians be able to do this or do they have
to have a specific person.

No. It is not true that the rules are the same.

Well, some of the rules are the same, but they are not all enforced the
same.

Examples:

Last July in Texas, Perot submitted their petitions and the Secy. of State
was supposed to take a 25% sample for verification.  They did not check
any.

In 1988, the Republicans screwed up and didn't file some paperwork on time
in Indiana (as I recall), but they put Bush on the ballot anyway.

We failed to get enough sigs by the deadline and they refused to put Ron
Paul on the ballot.

Besides all that, when the Reps and Dems were first formed as parties,
there were virtually NO petitioning requirements at all.  ANYONE could be
on the ballot.  Now that the Republicrats (Demopublicans) are securely on
the ballot, they raised the requirements for new parties.

you are partially correct, and partially wrong here, but either way this
statement is very deceptive.

in most states the rules are the same for all parties. a few have a
double standard where the rules explicitly don't apply to the Dems or
Reps.

but even in the states where the same set of rules is applied to all
parties there is always some magic criteria that allows a party to get
on the ballot free with no petitioning. guess which parties made
damn sure they already met this condition and nobody else did before the
rules were established.

in about 15 states the Libertarian Party is now included in the set of
parties that have automatic ballot access (as long as we maintain a
certain number of registered voters, or get a certain percentage of the
vote in a statewide race) but it wasn't easy getting this far.
