Tapioca? C'mon? That "is" gay.

Agree? Of course you do. Today's lunch was full of wise cracks. First of all, Sandy sat in at the table and said a silent prayer before he ate. I have nothing against this nor do I think him odd for this.. well yes I guess I do, just a bit odd perhaps. Simply because I 've never noticed him do it before.

My food was interesting but good. Sort of a chicken soup without a bowl. Just on my plate.
My top three shows that I would like to see would be, in this order...

1. Peter Gabriel
2. Paul Simon
3. Phil Collins

Weird that they all start with the letter P.

We Can't Go On Together, With Suspiciously Crappy Lunches

Worst lunch ever.  Sort of.  Worst lunch I've ever had at the Culinary Institute.  Chicken Vol Au Vents were advertised.  Chickens flying in the wind sounded kind of cool, but ended up being quite lame.

If I could see any band or artist, past or present, I'd see Elvis Aaron Presley.  Live at the International Hotel in Vegas.  He was really one of the first major artists to headline Vegas shows.  The story goes that he signed his first contract on a tablecloth... stained with bacon grease.

If you're looking for something different and exciting tonight, my buddy Dave Mayne is playing his first gig at Baba's.  And as you can see from the calendar, the DMayne Event is the must see show for February 7, 2006.

And for our readers on the West Coast, check out this hot new band, featuring the steady bass of my long time amigo, Steve O'Shea.

Tapioca - the gayest dessert of all time.

We had to take two cars to lunch today... well, had we organized would could have taken only one -- but I guess we're poor planners.  I picked up Sandy and met Donnie, Harma and Jacob at the Culinary. 

Sandy was kind and handed me a tray, a pink one... but due to my idiosyncrasies I only eat off of brown trays.  With Sheppards Pie on the menu I was quite pleased and managed to sweet talk the young lady into a larger portion!

When we finally arrived at the table Donnie, Harma and  Jacob were already busy eating so I followed suit.  Strangley (well, out of the ordinary) Sandy, with the fork half lifted to his mouth puts it back down and says a prayer.  We all took a double take.

I hate to ramble on about Sandy, but we had another great laugh at his expense as he professed his love for Tapioca pudding.  I'm not sure who said it, either Donnie or Jacob, but they were quick to point out that Tapioca was the gayest dessert going.

As for the band I'd like to see... I'm gonna go with the swinging Bee Gees.  The disco era, with its name as close to mine,  has always held a special place in my heart!

Back to work!

Another Culinary Lunch

Jacob may be somewhat upset with today's choices at the Culinary I must say it wasn't that bad at all. Rice and chicken is something I don't judge very quickly.

For as far as today's topic, I'm unlike these guys totally not into music. I just have different interests which at times still seems impossible for them to understand. Unfortunately, names of songs or artists don't stay with me for a very long period of time. It's one of those things that goes in one ear and maybe even faster out the other one. So I really don't have any major preference when it comes to this topic. I guess instead of going to a concerts or any kind of music show there are probably many other types of events that I would prefer to go to. Maybe that can be a topic some other day?

By the way? How come Donnie gets to list three choices? Whenever we talked about physical features and topics of that sort I always just got to pick just one thing while there were many more things that I could've added to the list. Things are just unfair! I'll remember this.

Men choosing what is "feminine" is risky business...

It is very interesting to bear witness to Dico deciding what is "feminine" (I think this is politically correct) and, therefore, not his taste.  I passed him a tray that was peachy in colour, and he replied that brown was the only color tray for him.  I gladly used the peach coloured tray to carry my food out to the table.

Then after proudly exclaiming that I got a great deal on tapioca at Sobeys, he states that tapioca is a feminine dessert.  I gladly just finished a dish of it and its remnants still sit on my tongue while I write out this blog.

But this is the kicker...Dico, without hesitation, tells us that he if there was one band that he would go back to listen to live it would have to be The BeeGees - mine is Led Zeppelin.  I would just like to say that I would rather be walking proudly around with my peach "tapioca carrying" tray listening to Led Zeppelin then curled up in the closet with a brown tray listening to The BeeGees!!!
