Drive-Thru Blogging
November 16, 2007
Ever since I heard Jack in the Box was opening in Denver I have been frantically checking directory assistance for a phone number or date they would actually open their doors. Yesterday I did my daily check of their locations on their website and found the Colfax restaurant is now listed under Colorado – Hooray!
I also stumbled upon a section of their site that updates an A-Z list of drive-thru services you probably didn’t know existed.

In Salem, Oregon we used to have an attorney downtown that did drive-thru divorces. I don’t think they would make this list though, since they got shut down after appearing on Dateline!
A drive-thru prayer booth? Now there’s an idea.

In my city, there’s a drive-by divorce van. That’s kind of similar. But a drive-through X-Raying? That tops everything.

Isn’t that funny? I’ll be on the look out for drive-thru services that I wasn’t taking full advantage of in the future.
And I love the van!
