Alright ... who here is a hot food freak? Hot wings anyone?

I did them twice. Each time, I was sweating bullets and shaking from the pain. It was horrible.

Why TWICE?! I understand you wanted a plaque (plack?), but did they put 2 plaques up for ya?

Waivers. That's funny ... I don't think that in the grand scheme of things a waiver would necessarily hold up in court. I'm not a lawyer but from my observations a waiver isn't the end all or be all in the limitation of liability. Liability is to be determined fully in court ... not by you signing some piece of paper.

Signing some piece of paper? It sure does hold up.

I'm not sure that it does. Just because you sign a piece of paper doesn't excuse the other party from moral and ethical obligations to provide a safe environment etc ... and stuff like that. What happens if a restaurant went overboard and added capsaicin extract to some hot wings that are clearly not meant for individual consumption and some patron almost died on the restaurant floor. Would some piece of paper prevent that restaurant from being sued? Or from losing such a case?

Again, i'm not a lawyer but this is what i've gleaned from lawyer buddies in layperson conversation. Of course, not every situation is the same and laws may differ from state to state ... I should ask some of my friends about this sometime.
