Double Jeopardy: I Take Beef for Three Hundred Please

Do you remember those Wendy's commercials with the old lady yelling?  

Fast forward about forty years. 

Obviously, I love this story but the why may be less obvious to you so I'll share. It's because of the specificity of the reporting: "The incident occurred Tuesday in the potato chip aisle of a Walmart in South Euclid, about 15 miles east of Cleveland." Flawless.

All I'm wondering is how do you want that blunt object, well done or medium-rare?
