  1. I have two methods for tipping. If it's a cheap restaraunt, or I'm there for lunch, I leave $3-5. That's usually much higher than 15% If it's a pricier meal then I add the taxes together for my tip total. I have left a restaraunt without leaving a tip, but not in a long while. A server has to REALLY screw the pooch for me to be so cruel. I can't stand places that include gratuities in their pricing unless I'm at a resort where I don't want to constantly have to give out money with every drink or service, then it's nice to have it included.
  2. Oh man, can anyone tell I just learned how to Photoshop? This is fun!
  3. And Bran Flakes. Those babies last forever and aren't they good for you? I like Bran Flakes.

    We're only on season two so thanks for the spoilers everyone. I can't wait for the episode where Echo dies. Sheesh.
  5. I have a Scottish/Irish/Welsh background but none of the traditional food ever made it into my belly. We were raised on a farm in the country so we ate A LOT of chicken, corn and potatos. In fact, I visited my grandmothers last year and they both served me the exact same meal, I couldn't believe it. Chicken, corn, potatoes and iceberg lettuce. The food I recall from my childhood was Kraft dinner, tomato soup (made with water not milk), peanut butter sandwiches, Mr. Noodles, fish sticks, puffed wheat that came in huge sacks, basically anything that was cheap enough to feed a family of 6. One of my favorite things that Mom would make was in a big roast pan (the size big enough for turkeys) she would put white rice, some water, a couple cans of mushroom soup and peices of chicken. I actually loved that dish cause it was the fanciest thing she made!
  6. Do any Ottawa Skanks knit?
  7. Could be a strategy to stay out of Iraq. I know I'd rather be safe behind bars than risking my life in a war. Seriously though, that's staggering.
  8. I'd hit it so hard. I haven't met a food I wouldn't at least try, but that actually looks like it would be tasty as fack!
  9. Lovin' you guys. Thanks for the advise. I am definitely looking into organizing 3-4 community clean-up or community greening events in 2008. I want to do one for Earth Day for certain. It's something my company has given me to work on. I couldn't be happier to be a part of making it happen.
  10. I used to call it the Keller Williams and Dave Matthews channel. Every damned time I turn it on it's one of those two.
  11. The place on Somerset is called Co Cham. They moved in November just a few doors down (to the east). I always get the assorted sub on baguette with chilies. I fackin lived on these things when I was single and poor. You're right Hux they include: - pork - some sort of pate (that tastes awesome to me) - cilantro - carrot slivers (pickled with a radish of some sort) - hot chilies.
  12. Hey-O Does anyone know of a small park that needs a serious overhaul or a piece of land downtown that could be converted into a park or garden? Deosn't matter who owns the land at this point, your suggestions are welcome. Thanks.
  13. I came across this website and think it's a pretty cool concept. Here's another one for more general merchadise.
  14. Try a nice Italian sausage. open it up and fry it with some onion and garlic and whatever else you personally like. When it cools slightly, add some breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, fresh parsley, salt, pepper and an egg. Stuff that tomatoe and roast it in the oven till it's nice and brown on top. I use the same method for stuffed peppers but mmm, I might do that in a tomato myself this week!
  15. I swear I am loosing faith in human beings. I'm so sorry to hear this.
  16. Tickets have been sent. Enjoy the show everyone!
  17. I think she's a butter face. There's just something about her eyes that look dead and souless. There's nothing hot about that.
  18. Now we have a day PLUS an hour. Maybe in 2009 we'll have two whole days to be kind to our Earth. One can only dream.
  19. But this item qualifies for a $10 rebate from ebay. SO worth it.
  20. On March 29th millions of people around the world will turn out their lights between 8 and 9 p.m. to mark Earth Hour. Created to take a stand against the greatest threat our planet has ever faced, Earth Hour uses the simple action of turning off the lights for one hour to deliver a powerful message about the need for action on global warming. This simple act has captured the hearts and minds of people all over the world. The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) in Sydney, Australia pioneered Earth Hour in 2007, with more than 2 million residents taking part, including 2,000 businesses. The initiative resulted in a 10 per cent reduction in demand on the electrical grid, and a reduction of 24.86 tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions - the equivalent of taking almost 50,000 cars off the road for an hour. In 2008, cities around the world are joining the effort, including Chicago, Toronto Ottawa and Copenhagen. The website.
  21. I am a HUGE Serena fan. I'd not only love to sing and perform at her level, but I'd also like to do her.
