Ya, I think it's almost always fried. In Philly, they might just tell you to get back to Maryland if you asked for it. They can be a little weird about food. Brotherly-lovey, yes, but a little weird. Steak sandwich bought on a sidewalk is a better bet there.
And a mimosa is another name for the silk tree, and also an alcoholic drink made with champagne and orange juice and served with brunch, which is the usage here. Like a screwdriver, tequila sunrise, gin fizz, or bloody mary, it falls into the "hair of the dog that bit you" school of hangover cures.

Sorry to disappoint you Dave.
But a black hole the size of Manhattan anywhere near our little corner of the galaxy would be devastating.
If a black hole that size were on Earth ...anywhere...
Let alone Antarctica ...
The very moment it appeared...
You and everyone one else, and everyrhing else...and the entirety of the Earth and its contents would instantaneously be squashed and compressed until there was virtually no space between the atoms...and all of it and us included ...reduced to about the size of a pea...of compressed matter...most likely smaller..
Soooo...
No .
No black hole in the Antarctic .
Bad enough it is melting at a rate not expected or anticipated .

God Dave...
You are great!
I doubt that it would work though...
It would eat everything around it including the containment and mount you had it on...
the riding lawnmower with umbrella and drink tray you are riding in...
oops ...the "tank" you are in...I meant to say..
and then it would start burrowing very rapidly (since the weight of it would be overwhelming) ...eating all the way...to the core of the planet...and then start munching on the planet from the inside out....
Sorry man...we got no "Unobtainium" to make a containment device for something like a black hole....
Afraid all we have right now is stuff that would end up feeding it.
There was a bad film about a research center with a business ceo who thought it was a good idea to create a black hole here on earth in "safely" confined conditions...
Epic disaster film....(and really a bad modern B film to boot)
