I remember that wreck, John.  This will be my third missed.  Darn it!  I kind of did the tour company thing.  I told him when I made the reservation that my company was bringing in 20 people all ordering food and drinks, the least he could do is to comp something.  He told me months ago he would comp one bloomin onion.  Yesterday I think the reality hit him.  He offered five of them.

Amber and I got comped some alcoholic beverages, because we didn't know they were going to bring people that don't drink alcohol that type of beverage.  Well, they gave them to us for the same price as the virgin drinks.

This particular place is difficult to get anything out of.  I guess  with the economy being the way it is and the fact he wants to talk you guys into more meals during the weekend, he figured he would give something out.  I wonder if there is another place owned by the same people in LB for Sat dinner?

John, there is next year!  I am sure I can get at least the same thing.

Saturday Dinner gift exhcnage reminder

OKay I know its difficult to find old parts to swap but try to find something you can exchange at the dinner. Whether it be used, useless, useful, new, or a Mankini, box it up and trade it in.

Does that mean I need to remove it in order to box it up?

Regarding the cruise on Sat to Rancho Palos Verdes.  I might at the last minute opt, like Mike and I have done before, to simply go 91 west to 710 south until it ends and then find our way over to west 25th st which becomes Palos verdes drive.  Probably as long as a drive as the cruise but less congestion.

Damn, good thing you posted this reminder.  I didn't remember even reading about a parts/gift exchange for the Saturday dinner!

Are there any other details I need to be reminded of?
