Lunch on a Budget X^
The Bucket has much to offer
"Lunch on a Budget' is a
regular feature appearing,
tn the Daily CoUegian. The
opinions expressed in the
article are the writer's own.
By Penny Solley
Staff Writer
For being smack dab in the middle
o' campus and having reasonable
prices, the Bucket should be drawing
in more students than it does.
The place is great with its "really
good, very bad for you" food. It also
has a great atmosphere, with its high
fuchsia ceiling and Janice Joplin belt¬
ing out Take Another Uttle Piece of
My Heart" In the background.
The place begs for hot conversa-
Uons abou t controversial political and
religious issues. Just imagine having
a cup of expresso or a nice cold draft
and really getUng into something
heavy. The Bucket would be a great
place to do that, but on this campus,
the posslblity of this happening is
debatable.
Nevertheless, the Bucket has much
to offer those of us on a tight budget.
The burritos. which cover the plate.
are served with sour cream, salsa and
plenty of cheddar cheese.
The chicken fajita burrito Is the most
costly, at $2.15. But the other two, a
cheese and bean burrito ($1.45). and
the ground beef ($1.85) are extremely
cheap for what you get. which is a loL
Do not pass up the curly q fries,
which will never earn an award for its
name, buttheymay, however, for their
taste. Do not get discouraged by the
price ($L75), Just bring a friend to go
dutch with: you'll need one. They are
spicy and are served in a large basket.
Ifyou are into fries, this could be your
lunch.
The hot sandwiches, pastrami, roast
beef and turkey, sound delicious and
look good at $1.60. but two wait:per-
sons cauUoned against them.
They're about the size of a
McDonald's hamburger and aren'tvery
filling. Go for the skins." was one's
advice.
The potato skins are smothered in
cheddar cheese, bacon bits and have a
great dollop of sour cream and chives
in the middle. For $1.85, the platter
has three potatoes, plenty of food to
feed a family of four.
Does this place have any faults? Of
course it does. Although the servers
are friendly, they are slow. Perhaps
there are just not enough of them, but
waiting 15 minutes to get food Is ri¬
diculous. Are they digging up potatoes
In the Ag department or what?
Good buys are plenty at the Bucket.
Suggestions for quanUty and afforda-
biliiy are: potato skins, nachos (with
Jalapeno's-hotl) and the bean or beef
bmrito.
Bottled beer Is an average $1.75 and
another interesting note is the wine
margarita. It could be worth the $1.25
to try it.
The Bucket deserves support. It is
the only place on campus that is clean,
has friendly servers, and has great
food.

through "her" satire style of perform¬
ing.
This is Just like the Academy
Awards; that is why the podium is on
this side of the stage and I feel like
Elizabeth Taylor and now I look like
her," said Benson.
Benson, alongwlth The Fresno City
Bulldrag performers and guests, said
they were J usfTone of the girls" with
their lipstick, rouge and curls, but
under all the make-up. costumes and
Jokes, they expressed a real need of
support for the AIDS and ARC vic¬
tims.
The Bulldrags used a slightly- para¬
phrased Indian proverb in their pro¬
gram to express their sentiments-
"Do not pass Judgement on a man
until you've walked...in his pumps!"
Regarding the Quilt project Ben¬
son said, "We want everyone to come
and view The AIDS Memorial Quilt
this Saturday and Sunday at "the
Selland Arena and don't worry, la¬
dies, it Is free Yes, I said^free, so
please come and bring your friends."
The Fresno Art Museum will be
sponsoring the AIDS Memorial Quilt
in exhibition for all to come and see.
This enormous quilt has been dis¬
played throughout the world as well
as In many cities of theUnlted States.
The Quilt consists of thousands of
Individual 3-by-6' panels. Each panel
memorializes one person who has
died of AIDS. Today, the Quilt en-
oomfSasses more 11.000 panels, with
more being added all the Ume. The
Quilt was the recent subject of the
HBO special "Common Threads* and
has been nominated fora Nobel Peace
Prize.
The organizaUon has raised nearly
$ 15,000 for the Central Valley AIDS
Team and Client Services Program.

ices incldding emergency housing,
food and necesslUes of life for people
with AIDS and ARC.
