Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeere's the thread!

Not sure what the Random thread is all about? Well, here's the answer to all your questions.

It's basically a restaurant. That serves breaststicks. And lots of cute fruit and veggies. And is patronized by a HO. And Tucker Carlson. Vin Diesel, too. Lots of race car drivers eat here, as well. We're very well respected by the Amish... one girl in particular is here almost all the time.

The food is great if you're low on iron. It's not on the menu, but you can ask about the special secret garlic cure home recipe. One of the hostesses often makes weather predictions, but she's not always around. I think she has another job with the government. Or a government. Something like that. One of the other hostesses says "Bitch, please," a lot, but she's joking... don't take it personally.

Forget anything you've heard about the girl who died here from arsenic poisoning. That was a long time ago, and she's still alive, anyway... just busy so she doesn't come in as much. Besides, a little arsenic adds a lot of flavor to just about any dish.

Pretty flowers by the entrance, hey? Lilis, they are. Beautiful. And the music is totally hopping... we have our very own DJ. Looks a little like Brad Pitt.

I guess that's pretty much all you need to know. I'm usually in the corner booth over there drinking a nice glass of wine. You're welcome to join me, anytime. We're open 24/7.


Congratulations to everyone who made Part 4 such a kickass thread!!!

And thank you to the ever generous, intelligent, lovely, and kind Nichole, who let me start the thread even though she won the last one. 🙂

has anyone eaten at Maggiano's? I want to try it

 

[R.P. McMurphy]

My dream is to live in Alaska one day on an island by myself and catch salmon and eat it right there. That would be awesome.

If med school doesn't work out i'm going up there to fish crab. Im serious too

 

[deleted106503]

remind me to send "Mmmbop" your way, sweetie <bats eyes innocently>

That is by far the worst onomatopoeia ever.

Some kid back in middle school (guy) said he thought the middle "girl" was hot. LMAO, you should've seen his expression when we explained it was a guy, hahahahahah.

We have one here but I haven't been there.

"Last Days on Earth" --- creepy

I looked this up after you mentioned it and it is indeed creepy. Thinking about death creeps me out. I just got done reading The Death of Ivan Ilych and that in and of itself creeped me out because it reminded me how short life is and how much we really need to enjoy every small moment because we don't know when life will be taken away from us.

 

[deleted106503]

There's something about Alaska that just does it for me, not sure why. Seems kind of strange becaues I've lived in FL all my life, but I can definitely see myself enjoying it there.

 

[RAD11]

Never heard of Maggiano's

That's why I need to get a 45 on the MCAT already and get into med school 😎

You are not alone on that one. It sounds like an italian place.

I thought that was one of the most dangerous jobs. I saw a documentary on it on the Discovery channel. One guy actually went overboard. Scary!!

 

[deleted106503]

Same here, not sure what type of food it is. Is it as big as Bennigan's? I love that place. Slainte!

My in-laws just came back from there and showed us pics....didn't look interesting to me....I guess gotta visit to see.

 

[deleted106503]

Death creeps you out? Why do you say that? I can understand how dying can, especiall if it's slow and painful, but death itself should be nothing you can feel because you're already dead (although I'm not 100% since I've never died 🙂 ).

What do you live about Alaska...is it the serenity of the place?

Good night Tanner!!

(BTW, does Tanner have an official short nick? I like SPF, personally.)

They have cable tv. 😀

$$$ seeker.

 

[RAD11]

I wanna be in Hawaii right now.

 

[R.P. McMurphy]

I just like crab. And snow. And that job looks like fun

 

[DrBowtie]

Did you figure out the Green Room tournament?

 

[RAD11]

They have cable tv. 😀

👎 😎

They don't ever stop airing that episode on Discovery in my area. It's on over an hour a day. They should just get robots (read: AI) to do the jobs. Some guy broke his ankle on the deck on a piece of wooden plank that broke...nice one.

 

[R.P. McMurphy]

haven't you heard that i-banking is the way to go?

I want to be on the Northwestern, I love that boat

 

[RAD11]

Do you play poker everyday?

 

[deleted106503]

My friend went there for his honeymoon, 2 weeks. Said it got kind of boring...

 

[R.P. McMurphy]

Did you figure out the Green Room tournament?

dude, that $7......gone in a cash game. set of 8s beat my se of 6s

it still says i need i ticket for it?

 

[DrBowtie]

Do you play poker everyday?

No, not everyday. Just whenever I have free time.

Try to "purchase" a ticket from your account page.

Oh they're boring!!!!!

Hiking in Kauai was fun!

Actually now that you mention it...I saw it when I went home to visit my parents. I have no cable/satellite, but they do. Anyhow, the next time I went to visit them a few months later, it was on again. I didn't watch the whole thing though.

 

[Nikki2002]

well hawaii will get boring if you stay on one island for 2 weeks--is that what they did? anywho this thread has gotten VERY random--it seems like there are 10 convos going on

 

[deleted106503]

I'm telling you, South Africa is the way to go! Night and day safaris! Freakin' awesome. We saw elephants having sex at night and we pissed them off because the truck's engine bothered them, ahahhaha!

Here here to people with no cable!!!!


Rabbit ears all the way!!

sorry- it's Italian. I thought I heard something about it being kind of a family-style thing, where the entire table shares one or two entrees? dunno. heard it's really good, kinda pricey.

 

[deleted106503]

Yea, same island. They rented a car and drove all over it to find something to do.

 

[oxeye]

You've never seen 2001: A Space Odyssey?

Worst movie EVER.

 

[Nikki2002]

kodak moment

No wonder why you guys were having so much fun

 

[R.P. McMurphy]

i'm going to try to finally figure it out tonight

i'm doing well in omaha right now

 

[Crazy Canuck]

Worst movie EVER.

Texas Chainsaw Massacre (the new one) is up there too

 

[deleted106503]

kodak moment

All of my pics of the night shots came out bad. And this was with a good Canon camera. Only a few cheetah and cubs at night I got a pic of (barely).

 

[Nikki2002]

i dunno.....baby elephants are awfully cute

 

[deleted106503]

Worst movie EVER.

I wouldn't say so...I can't think of the worst I've seen right now, but Jurassic Park 3 is worse.

 

[RAD11]

Texas Chainsaw Massacre (the new one) is up there too

was that movie really gory?

 

[Nikki2002]

hey i like those jurassic park movies! *gasp* did u see any baby elephants?

 

[deleted106503]

i dunno.....baby elephants are awfully cute

I saw a show on TV a while back of a baby elephant playing soccer. It was kicking the ball around and almost tripped on it, ahhaha! It got scared and ran away.

 

[RAD11]

How long did you stay in S. Africa?
