I have met a number of my imaginary friends for drinks or dinner. Except for Sidd passing out at the table once, none of them have been crap.

Or so I like to think. In a way. I need to make them non-miserable.
AoN, I love meeting planning. But I am weird.--I like picking different rest. for catering, different food, one time NY Deli, one time Indian, the next, Thai, if it is an American type place, then the salmon, tuna, antipasto, etc. Good times are had by all.

funny. most real wine lovers look at the sub-$20 range that you and Penske infest as the prole market.

But not nice enough to keep her hands busy and prevent her from posting on here. So, for my purposes, may as well be cockless.

And lead and plan strategically and be proactive and total quality manage and other buzzwords.
you should make your people eat lunch early then report to you on their choices.

We'll nominate you. What was the most outragous thing you did as Ty@50? share. we are all about sharing.

So by the time she had done the research and tried to change the business name, they went out of business.

And to your other response, as if Day_Jay Vu isn't already mispronounced.
I knew a guy who invested money in a chain of crispy fried rabbit restaurants called Wild Horse. [Insert Penske boxed wine joke here.] This was before I knew him, but it always seemed to me that one of the obvious problems with the scheme was the choice of name.

A 5'6" friend of mine used a urinal next to Manute Bol. He was very frightened.

Most of the wine I buy is $10-$20/bottle. I do agree that Penske infests the prole market, though, whatever that means.

I think I can get around to that in about fifteen years or so.

And I should have seen this coming, but I was still surprised when I encountered this year's trend in NFL merchandising for women.

I give you the glitter jersey:



(You can also get it in white, and apparently, for Jake Plummer only, in salmon.)
