This is the Rodney King/CWAJGA special Thursday edition.

I reserve the right to do a Gini on this thread.

No name calling, no hassling, no BS -no kidding.

Freaking nerves have been frayed and I think we all need a moment to decompress....

I'll pull the pin on this sucker should things get out of hand and I will name the publicly name the culprit- no stupid gag orders or Nancy Grace BS this week......

It's a full tilt special Thursday's -COMING RIGHT AT YA!!!

Since we are done lobbing bombs at each other, it's time to absorb some personal damage....


the DOTD is an


A-Bomb

Equal parts: Kahlua, Baileys, Vodka & Tia Maria

Stir over ice & strain into pony or chilled cocktail glass


Check you 'cattitudes' at the door......I'm not in the mood this week;)

Give me an A-Bomb, too. It's been a long week even though it is only Tuesday.

Well, I'll be heading west on Friday. Going to California for a couple of days to take care of family business. One of those whirlwind trips that leave me totally exhausted (out on Friday-back on Sunday).

Hope you guys keep the weather nice until I can get there and enjoy some of it.

Have we decided on munchies yet? Don't know what I want to eat - it's one more decision I don't want to make today. Last week everyone came up with great ideas, so I was holding out to see what was the FOD (food of the day).

Maybe sushi? Some tuna maki would be yummy.

I'll take some california rolls with double avocado and no roe. Extra wasabi, please! :)

P.S. RICHARD - A california roll has crabmeat, cucumber, red pepper, avocado, sushi rice and then the seaweed wrapper. YUM.

I'm going to wait until Thursday or at least tomorrow, for my request. I stayed out of the fray, for once, so I'm not quite as anxious as some of you!

Helen and I, and a friend of hers, are getting ready to leave for a concert. We're going to the BiLo center, our local arena, to see Mercy Me and Michael W. Smith. For those of you who don't know, Mercy Me, is a Christian Rock band. Their most "famous" song, in my opinion, is "I Can Only Imagine", and it is played on contemporary stations here all the time, not just the Christian radio. Michael W. Smith is an ever popular Christian artist and songwriter as well. I think it will be great and the girls are excited too. It was intended to be part of my birthday present, and the tickets were purchased before we realized that Scott would be out of the country when it occured!! :o

Have a great Tuesday evening, folks. I'll see you on Thursday for my happy hour! ;)

We have a Todai here in Portland. On your birthday your dinner is free:D I don't know if I'd call the food high quality, but it is ok quality, especially when you can get two for the price of one with the birthday special.

I just love all the little bite-sized desserts.

I love Japanese food; it's so clean and healthy and looks beautiful.

I'll start with a couple of California rolls (do you have those in California??? :)) a big dollop of wasabe, and some tempura vegetables yum yum!

And a Japanese beer if you have one, sir!

I like today's Odd Spot - hide your cabbages!
Police in Yalta, Ukraine, have arrested a man caught with a gun and a cabbage he intended to use as a silencer. "Our officers just shrugged their shoulders, smiling, as they've never seen cabbage used as a silencer before," a police spokeswoman said.

as absurd as that sounds...;)
It's like Baked Alaska!!


lol,

I take the cabbage story two ways......
as a silencer you get coleslaw.....

as a cabbage you get gas.....no silence.


CA rolls, tempura veggies and wasabe....
Ice cold Sapporo beer!


Done!!

Catland,

lol, that makes me think about getting some wheel barrows and shuttling people to the parking lot....valet sevice???

may i please have a tall coke, with ice and lime please. it's already been a long week.....alex the wonder dog was at the ohio state vet hospital for the last 3 days with pneumonia. honestly he was one sick puppy, and it broke my heart to leave him there for 2 nights. the cats missed him big time too.

Logan
10-21-2003, 11:08 PM
Oh, Joyce, I had no idea that Alex had been sick!!!!! I hope he is much better now!! You deserve doubles of everything, and a special treat for Alex! Does he like sushi??? :)

10-22-2003, 12:19 AM
Well, you know, I have been here all day because I pounded on Richard's door in another thread.

Now he has me making sushi! Man, can he ever bark out the orders.....GINI - CALIFORNIA ROLLS, AHI TUNA, WASABE ON THE SIDE....PRONTO! I have never worked this hard in my life. Don't you people ever eat at home?

Uh, this fish is fresh right now, but I suuuurrrreee wouldn't order anything with fish on Thursday.

Alright, I will have an iced tea - yes, with lemon and one sugar, please

(yeah, right)

A-Bomb sounds really good but it's too early right now for me, how about one of my Bloody's - I'll even make it (see what I get for living on the East Coast? Always have to re-open the next day) ;) Later on, however, a bomber and SUSHI! My favorite is Teka-Maki and of course extra wasabe. Hmmm, maybe I'll try some wasabe in my Bloody instead of horseradish! I'll let you guys know how it works :D

10-22-2003, 07:58 AM
105 - wow, I only wanted nice not hot. Must be all that concrete keeping the temps up. Where my sister lives, there is very little grass.

I'm gonna have to unpack summer clothes to take with me. Don't need them in Iowa so I put them away.

lbaker
10-22-2003, 08:36 AM
Not everyone likes raw fish (can you imagine :eek: ) so what if I whip up some Yakitori - chicken on a skewer - I have a nice marinade of Japanese sweet rice wine and sesame oil to put on it. Maybe some spring rolls as well. We can just nibble away instead of one big heavy meal :) I was thinking of Crispy shredded duck & noodle salad but didn't want to upset Nibbles, a nice little duck from another thread ;)

It is just about lunch time here on the East Coast, so I definitely want an order of sushi for myself (salmon California rolls) and a couple of small ones for "the gang" ... yes they have tried sushi and they LOVE the raw fish ;)

But it has been one of those weeks, after talking with the lawyers yesterday (sorry Cataholic) I definitely need at least one A-bomb, maybe two.

I'm not much for raw fish, but the Yakitori and spring rolls sound wonderful.

As for music - no KARAOKE - please!

Don't worry Richard, we'll sneak behind the bar and fix our own drinks since you are busy. But please leave the barternder's manual - I can't remember all of the drink combinations:eek:

Joke time:
You are one of *two* people on a malfunctioning airplane with only one parachute. How would you react?

Bureaucrat: you order them to conduct a feasibility study on parachute use in multi-engine aircraft under code red conditions.

Lawyer: you charge one parachute for helping them sue the airline.

Internal Revenue Service: you confiscate the parachute along with their luggage, wallet, and gold fillings.

Economics: you plot a demand curve by asking them, at regular intervals, how much they would pay for a parachute.

Psychoanalysis: you ask them what the shape of a parachute reminds them of.

Republican: as you jump out with the parachute, you tell them to work hard and not expect handouts.

Democrat: you ask them for a dollar to buy scissors so you can cut the parachute into two equal pieces.

Libertarian: after reminding them of their constitutional right to have a parachute, you take it and jump out.

Sports Fan: you start betting on how long it will take to crash.

Association of Tobacco Growers: you explain very patiently that despite a number of remarkable coincidences, studies have shown no link whatsoever between airplane crashes and death.

I'll take one of those A-bombs Richard! Sounds wonderful...except...I've got a final this evening and somehow I think I should save the A-bomb for after the final. ;) :D

Oh, and in reference to another thread....I find sushi offensive. No really, I do! I think it's gross - eating raw fish, who ever heard of such a thing! 'Course I don't like fish even if it's cooked so my opinion might be a little biased. ;) :D And even better yet, since I don't want any, that leaves that much more for you guys! :D

Speaking of lunch....

Oh, and I got these in an email and I've been saving them so here goes....hope no one is offended....

1. Two peanuts walk into a bar. One was a salted.

2. A jumper cable walks into a bar. The barman says "I'll serve you, but don't start anything."

Ringo Starr - "I Get By With A Little Help From Depends"

Marvin Gaye - "I Heard It Through The Grape Nuts"

Procol Harem - "A Whiter Shade Of Hair"

Johnny Nash - "I Can't See Clearly Now"

Leo Sayer - "You Make Me Feel Like Napping"

I bet you've experienced snorp-to-conciousness. A word which is best described by the visual - you are falling asleep in front of the TV, just starting to snore, when your subconciously hear yourself starting to snore and...well....snorp-to-conciousness. :D In other words you wake yourself up with one last snort which was really supposed to be a snore before it was so rudely interrupted. :D

Laurie. :D :D Those are great! :D :D

Richard, yes, we had an aquarium, but I actually think it has to do with the fact that my dad was an avid fisherman. I still to this day cannot put a worm on a hook, or touch a slimy fish to take it off the hook. And I've seen way too many of them cleaned....won't even go into details about that.....eeeewwww.

:D

Can I just have a teensy taste of the A-Bomb to help my brain soak up all this school stuff I'm trying to cram into it? :eek:

Oh, and MOFF, I'm offended because <whine> that sounds way too good and I want some too.

Randi
10-22-2003, 03:36 PM
Good grief!! :eek: John says I'm snoring too - only after a bottle of wine though!

Now I come think of it, I need a B52 with my coffee - no need for Charlie at this hour - and Fister would LOVE a large selection of sushi - if possible. :D If that's not available, some raw liver will do. ;)

Ice - congratulations and happy belated birthday!

Is it getting cold back there yet? Would a hot cocoa be appropriate?:)


Slick, if you promise not to snort into your drink, I'll serve you up an A-bomb - extra radioactive.

T&P - you're cut off.:p

Hey, wait!!! I'm done with my test and ready for a full blown A-Bomb!!! Come back........

Oh well, I've got some wine I got at the Amana Colonies two weeks ago so I guess that'll have to suffice until the barkeep gets back tomorrow.

You know, I realized why I like this place. There are no attitudes. Everyone is welcome and everyone has a good time.

Cass, enjoy your Jack - never touch the stuff myself, too many bad tales to tell when Jack was involved.....

I gotta go, Tubby's going downstairs to eat, maybe I can finally get a video of him yowling....

See you all tomorrow...oh, and I don't think I did too bad on the test...can't wait for the A-bomb tomorrow....

No sushi today... wasn't it written in Poor Richard's Almanac (no relation, maybe both poor and certainly both witty and clever but still...) written that company & fish tend to stink after 3 days. I'll whip up some more Japanese appetizers for starters and we can take it from there. Gini's recipe for Cornish Pasties sounded good but perhaps now is neither the time nor place :rolleyes: I first heard of Cornish Pasties in "The Cat Who..." series. Love those books! By the way Sara "Bottle in front of me instead of a frontal lobotomy"... was that not Tom Waites? My buddy?

Let's see, if the bar is still open I will take
cold Strawberri Margarita, and anything else
you want me to try that is not to hard.

Richard usually doesn't check in for an hour or so, but I made an extra key to open the bar.

L4me - we'll see if lbaker has any squid in her potpouri of seafood for your calamari.

T&P - here's your A-Bomb - enjoy.

KYS - one Strawberry Margarita - extra sweet.

Randi - OJ - freshly squeezed - what are you doing getting all healthy on us?

V&J - Sake.

DONE

:D

L4me, you pull that slippery little sucker [pun intended] out of the tank for me and I'll cook it up for you. Lots of garlic & butter or just a bit of olive oil? Orrrrr, I have some tempura dip stuff - that could be tasty. How about a calamari surprise? Catland, my extra key opens the kitchen and Gini has one too. How many extra keys did that man have made anyway?

lol! when i sold my truck I had about 7 keys hidden all over the planet.......I sold the truck about 5 months ago.......and am still finding keys...

good morning everyone,


let me get more work done.......I expect a surge in the crowd today:eek:

thanks to all that 'keep the place running' while i work!

Also, the scientific and medical views posted on this thread are not that of mamangement!

Only Eddie hears me snore....and he does not complain!
:eek:

This is just to let you know that we are completely OUT of sushi, and it is only Thursday early AM here.

Now I could whip up a batch of Cornish Pasties, but I don't want to be thrown out of the bar and out of PT, so I won't.

This is going to be a really good Thursday - lots of new customers.
Wait until they find out how much fun we have.

Could someone help me out in the kitchen later? I really made a mess with all of that rice and fish.

L4me - I attend a regular Ladie's Night Out. We have a local restaurant that we frequent and when we arrive they always say GOOD EVENING LAAAAADDDDIIIIEEES. (our reputation precedes us).

Re: snoring.....see, I was going to comment that no one hears me snore, as I sleep alone, but, then, thought, "is that offensive"? So, I decided not to post it.:D

Some of those jokes were sad, but, hugely funny. I am going to borrow one of Soledad's snorts...


*snort*

Now, give me something to ease the hangover from the red wine last night!

popcornbird
10-23-2003, 11:43 AM
Sushi? You folks like sushi? :p I've never tried it........nor will I ever........I can't stand the thought of eating raw fish! :eek:

But what's an A-bomb? I don't like A-bombs you know. They're evil, destructive, murderous. Hate them more than the world.

Now aside from that, I'm completely alcohol free, will never touch anything with alcohol, nothing...........so may I ask. Do you folks sell some nice fruit smoothies? If so, I'd like a nice and cold banana blueberry. :p

10-23-2003, 11:49 AM
Cataholic, that red wine will do it to me every time... shoulda tried one of da bombs, they're grrrrrrrrreAT. Have some of my appetizers but stay away from the calimari, not so good with a queezy tummy. Hey Pop, I'm sure we have an un-tainted blender around here and I used to make a wicked (in a non-alcohol, tasty way) smoothy for my kids and me awhile back. Allow me. 2Kitties, someone had some fresh squoozed orange juice around here earlier and Gini alllllways has a bottle of champagne stashed, care for a Mimosa?

You can count on me to help you out in the kitchen! ;) Did you ever drink that wine I left in your refrigerator? :D It would really go well with fish...

I'm late once again to Thursdays! Sheesh! Serve me up one of those A-bombs Richard! In fact, make it two and wish me good luck! I had a phone interview yesterday and I feel like it went pretty good. Hopefully I will get a call-back at the beginning of next week for a face-to-face. This job was a really good fit for me and I would love the opportunity to get back into the computer industry full time! Working part-time/temp and being on unemployment is just driving me crazy these days!

I brought some artichoke/spinach/crab cheese dip for everyone! It's one of my specialties! Let's have an artichoke dip tasting! L4me brought some too! :) Richard, see if there is some crunchy sourdough bread back there!

MMMM...artichoke dip, one of my favorites! Give me a nice big scoop of that please. And I'm still working on the coke I brought with me this morning, so I'll stick with that for the time being - too much wine last night celebrating the end of my test. :o :rolleyes:

However, the insurance auditor is on his way here, so I'll definitely need something stronger this afternoon! :eek:

When I typed that, I thought "somebody is going to say something, Logan". How right I was!!! LOL!!! :D

It reminds me of my conversation with Scott on the day of our first date. We had just left Sunday School and he pulled me aside to talk about our evening plans. I told him "I'm easy" (meaning, obviously, that whatever he planned would be fine with me), but later he said " You're easy, but not cheap". :o

Wolflady, that artichoke/spinach/crab cheese dip sounds delicious - would that fit for a starter?

Randi - one Mimosa

L4me - one Black Butte for your Sig. Other:)

T&P - Richard is the drink expert. I'll let him think of something for your afternoon "hair of the dog"

Logan - H2O and lemon - that was easy.

mo-mo - catnip tea coming right up.

Wolflady - thanks for the dip - here's your A-Bomb.

Can I have a glass of cold champagne please? This dip sounds wonderful - but NO sushi thanks all the same - urggghhh! And bread left?

10-23-2003, 02:34 PM
Thanks Logan, it definately sounds a lot better than Black Velvet which is Stout and Champagne.

I recently tried a place in Copenhagen for brunch - It's called O's (American of course :D) but I missed the Mimosa. However, the pancakes they make, Uhhmm!!

Now that thursdays are getting so busy, we could all have brunch on Sundays! :D :eek:

Brunch would have to be really organized Randi, more kitchen work than bartending I'd say. I supposed the EuroTalkers could start it (assuming Richard gives one of you the key to open) U.S. East Coast Talkers could take 2nd shift and - HEY, wait a minute :eek: we hardly have time to clean the joint up by Monday morning as it is. SURELY we deserve a day of rest. (OK Catland, I left myself wide open for you...........)

Besides I will stick up for you and I am pretty sure Richard would as well.

Because of the fires here the light is very strange. Instead of morning sunlight - it is just a wierd hazy gold glow. People being evacuated from their homes - it is very sad.

lbaker
10-24-2003, 10:42 AM
Gini, I didn't realize the fires were that close to you :( I'm so sorry. I'll dress up early for Halloween and be an Indian so I can start a rain dance. When I was little and we played cowboys & Indians I always wanted to be an Indian and no, it had nothing to do with football teams :rolleyes: Seriously, this is a terrible situation and my thoughts are with all my California friends & family.

gini
10-24-2003, 10:56 AM
Laurie, the fires are not that close to my home - but because the sky is dark to the north and a wierd golden in the south, gives you an idea of how severe the fires are. The Santa Ana winds are only whipping them up even more.

When I was little, I too played cowboys and indians with my friends. But, I always wanted to be the animal - a deer. I haven't thought about that in years.

lbaker
10-24-2003, 11:15 AM
I used to work with a lovely, young Italian lady & asked her what type of game they used to play in Italy that might have been the same idea as Cowboys & Indians and she said they used to play "Hunters & Hares" :D I guess kids all over the world make up similar games, regardless of where they live :)

momoffuzzyfaces

I've got a Cherokee and a Sioux down the line on my family tree. I don't know if knowing the rain dance is inherited but would be willing to give it a go to see if it would help you folks in California out. In my younger days I could shake a leg but haven't tried in years.

May I have a ginger ale with a cherry dropped in it, Please???????? oh, the cats said their catnip tea yesterday, was the best ever and send head bumpies to the bar keep. :D

Sorry Catland, Gini & I were just being nostalgic and next thing you know we're down on the floor playing jacks. For penance I'll take on the bathrooms *yuck*

Gini, I'm sorry to hear about the fires. :( I hope everyone will stay safe! It looks rather serious.

A Red Flag Fire Warning has been issued for Los Angeles County and surrounding areas. High temperatures, low humidity and gusty canyon winds raise the fire danger.
These extreme conditions will be in effect through the weekend.

This is a scene from the "Grand Prix" Fire, currntly burning in the Lytle Creek area North of Fontana. The wind is gusting to about 40 MPH and is blowing south off of the mountains into residential areas.

Are the fires anywhere near Whittier? That is where my family lives,so just curious.

Luckies4me......no, the fires are not near Whittier. If you go into Yahoo maps and type in Whittier - and then click east to the 210 and 15 freeways, where they intersect........that is where the fires are now.

I am in the heart of Los Angeles - and now there is no sunlight, only grey.

They are advising us to stay indoors and keep animals in as well.

I just heard that they are seeing a lot of wildlife now, bobcats, etc. and they are singed. And as they come down into the foothills from the mountain areas that are burning, it could become even more dangerous for firefighters and others.

We have the Santa Ana winds each year at this time and that is why it is so unusually hot. They expect these winds to continue through Sunday. This is not good.

Catland, sorry about the squid on the floor. That stuff is so gross, I kept dropping it.

And the Cornish pasties on the ceiling - well Richard kept bugging me to work faster, faster - we had such a crowd this week! I got disgusted and just threw up my hands! I had no idea they would stick to the ceiling.

Now for what's under the tables - hey, it wasn't me!! I was in the kitchen all day!

I am really pooped, but I will pitch in and help clean up too.

[Am I allowed to say pooped?]

DONE!

I'll clean up the bathrooms and wash the dishes if you all will take care of the 'customer area'??

Laurie and Gini,
if you would like we can move the tables on the terrace and you guys can play outside!?!?!?!

Moff,
ginger ale w/cherry..

NO SPLITS!!!! okay?

bumpies back atcha!!!

Done.

Randi,

every few years this happens.....and the fires are usually started by arsonists. :mad:
The speed, sounds and heat from a fire like that are some of the scariest things you can ever experience. Think of standing next to a train track while the train, on fire, passes within a few feet of where you are standing..:eek:

thanks for the concern!

The fires are out by whittier, but not a prob there...

Come on Laurie, let's take a break and go out on the terrace and play jacks. I am a bit rusty here, can you remind me how to play?

I am thirsty too.........but I am not demanding this morning, only want a good cup of coffee and some milk.

10-24-2003, 12:18 PM
You can practice with one-zies then two-zies while I make us a PB&J sandwich (on white bread of course) and bring us each a glass of ice cold milk :p Gracious me, THIS conversation should be safe enough :rolleyes: Maybe Catland or Soledad can take a break and play the winner :D Richard?

gini
10-24-2003, 12:21 PM
OOOOO....a PB&J and ice cold milk?

How about some neopolitan ice cream for dessert?

Oh Oh, I just got jam on the jacks.

Don't cut those crusts or I'll toss you out of the kitchen...:p

Have you seen those frozen crustless PB&J's????

ewwwww,

fresh or nothing..


Finally an easy drink to mix!!!

Milk.....

Done!!!


Ice cream when we finish???

gini
10-24-2003, 12:39 PM
Geeze, if you are too lazy to make a PB&J sandwich, you shouldn't be allowed out of bed in the morning.

Cut off the crusts? Heck no, all of the jam gets squeezed to the edge and that's the good part.

catland
10-24-2003, 12:39 PM
I'd love to play the winner in jacks- just as soon as I get this stuff off of the seats.

No more bubble-gum in the bar. This stuff is disgusting to scrape off.:eek:

So I'm doing some shopping online today, and guess what I find!!!:pasties (http://www.neimanmarcus.com/store/catalog/prod.jhtml?itemId=prod7440960&cmCat=search&_requestid=13376)

Actually, I think this is a pretty cool product and I'm thinking of getting one. It says you can wear it up to 100 times. I hate underwear lines.

Do you serve chocolate martinis here?

catland

Great news:
I'm taking my computer home and hooking it up with internet tomorrow!!!! Yeah!!!!!! Now I'll be able to party with you even on my day off. :D Do I need a life or what.

I see the place is all cleaned up. If I promise to be good could I get a cold one before lunch??

OK you all, it's now 8:20 about, in the evening on a Friday night.. I'm here watching my son and D-in-law playing Jacks on my living room floor. I in a way told them about todays Happy Hour and doG did I let myself in for it :eek: they are trying to out-do each other in JACKS. (I just happened to have a set of Jacks and TWO rubber bouncy balls in a drawer) Geez, wait until we get into pick-up-sticks or my favorite - HOP SCOTCH :eek: Now they are playing by Calvin Rules..it's going to be a loooong night

sorry to get off the immediate subject but this is just too funny listening to son & DIL having a serious discussion over Jacks I need to get a life I guess

gini
10-24-2003, 07:25 PM
Jam n Jacks at Laurie's house!!!

I draw the line at kick the can though............(Laurie, you could suggest this if you want to get them out of the house for a while.:D :D )

Glad to hear that you have a household that gets right into the spirit of things and doesn't make fun of you and Pet Talk.

The only ones that really understand are my neighbors (Rusty's Mom and Dad).

Everyone else thinks I am crazy or just humor me.

Have a great weekend!
