- Other surprises from Bill O'Reilly's trip to Sylvia's:
* Chairs and tables were sturdy and four-legged.
* Napkins already on the table, leaving no need for them to be special-ordered.
* Menu actually printed on paper, suggesting widespread literacy of clientele, rather than selections being sung to him by kindly old black man playing the banjo as he'd expected.
* Meal served by waitstaff in a customary appetizer-entree-dessert order, and not out of a trough.
* Meatloaf made of ground beef, not ground welfare checks.
* No need to pay with food stamps--credit cards and U.S currency accepted.
* Money was collected through traditional handing over of a bill, rather than mugging.
* Widespread use of knives, forks, spoons.
