that is ridiculous...i don't think i've ever met anyone like that!

hehehe

genius! i don't like capers either

^^^^officially batshit crazy

i don't mind eating alone at all either. sometimes it's best for people not to see how much sushi i eat speaking of...found a new sushi place last week when my usual was closed. Lapointe in the market (ate downstairs but sushi bar is upstairs). ridiculous amount of fish.

i like everything in this thread too! i can't think of something i don't like (that i should like).

that was such a fun night velvet's "one more set" chant actually kinda worked too

hehehe

so, it is neighbours with whom?

it's fun trying to figure it out for yourself while watching a few times. i definitely guessed a few wrong! here's the key though for after you've done that http://touristpictures.com/foodfight/cheat.htm

how about just buying skates...your feet ain't gonna grow anymore and there's probably lots of sales on now!

funny...looks like the tres magueyes is the same maker as the don julio. i was looking for a pic and found: Tres Magueyes, located in the beautiful town of Atotonilco, produces fine Blanco and Reposado mixto tequilas that have long been respected in Mexico. The 100% blue agave brand, Don Julio, is a favorite, especially among North American tourists in Cancun. Scheduled for release in fall of 1997, Tres Magueyes will present Don Julio Real, which comes in a dramatic decanter bottle overlaid with a silver agave. The decanter sits in a polished steel replica of an alambic still and sells for 2,000 pesos, almost $270 US. A distribution deal with Rémy Martin is planned that should allow both labels to be distributed in the United States. The Tres Magueyes style exhibits smooth, rich tequilas based on the undeniable agave aromas and flavors, interwoven with additional notes that add complexity. Well made, the tequilas are never aggressive. Tasting Notes Tres Magueyes Blanco: Strong and mellow on the attack, this colorless tequila has macho intensity and suave complexity. Lovely earthy, ginseng aromas with smoke and pepper. Little sweetness with medium body. Delicate flavors with hints of agave, earth, and smoke. The finish is hot, with long-lasting reminders of chamomile and earthy agave. Tres Magueyes Reposado: Yellow with a full, mellow attack. Macho intensity and suave complexity. Cream soda aromas mix with earthy agave and overripe apple. Slightly sweet and full in the mouth. Vanilla, caramel, agave, and apple flavors. Tingly finish, with a hint of bitterness and a long duration of flavors. Don Julio Reposado: Pale yellow in color with a strong, mellow attack. Macho and muy suave complexity. Delicate wet cement agave, caramel, and floral aromas, with hints of pepper and lemon. Low sweetness and medium body. Agave, apple, and caramel flavors, plus traces of pepper and dried flowers. The finish is hot and long-lasting. The aftertaste changes from a complex combination of agave, smoke, and caramel to almost pure cream soda.

so, a 4 month break is now considered a "hiatus"? this is funny.

another kind of tequila which is quite tasty, that my dad used to bring me back from his golf trips to mazatlan, is called "Tres Magueyes". so if you ever see this one, try it!

i'm just east of bronson. this is my landlady's number (819) 457- 4157 because there is a for rent sign across the way and she owns that house too. there was a for rent sign on my house, but it's not there anymore, and i'm not sure if maybe the storm blew it off or whether she's rented it (but no one is living there now). but if you wanna give her a call, then you could find out whether the apt(s) suit their needs or not first. a bit further east on the street (same block) there is a huge house with a 1 BR for rent sign as well, if you are gonna swing by. no price was marked though. good luck!

let's see...that's a lotta questions. i tip at least 15% in a restaurant. on the total (i don't exclude tax or booze or whatever...i can't be bothered to do all that for a few bucks. well i guess i could if it was a pricey meal, but also i never remember that pre-tax rule!) if the service is terrible i will leave maybe 10% if they're lucky. if it's a true takeout place i don't usually tip (never at fast food), but if it's an actual restaurant and i'm getting takeout from it i leave a couple bucks. i only leave an amazing tip if the person has given us a free meal, free drinks or something like that.

well ya didn't mention that they need laundry in the building and hardwood floors.

i don't know much, but i love the stuff he does with j peter schwalm. seeing them remains one of my top 5 shows ever!

oooooooh
