Jayne: Yeah, that was some pretty risky sittin' you did there. Wash: That's right, of course, 'cause they wouldn't arrest me if we got boarded, I'm just the pilot. I can always say I was flying the ship by accident.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

We are doing well - we're excited, Sass is excited - and figuring it out. Jeff just came back from a hike with the dog in Rock Creek Park, so she's flopped out on the lawn. I need to nurse the baby, and think about another nap.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

like a restaurant that specializes in Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwiches.

Dude, we have Butter.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

We also have a restaurant that serves nothing but macaroni & cheese:

In London my BiL took us to a restaurant that only served hummus, but I don't remember the name well enough to Google.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Just as Cincinnati has cookies year-round, Durham has restaurants with multiple dishes.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

Hummus Brothers? My other half is in love with that place. (I am anticpating a fight over whether all the catering for whatever kind of party ends up being our wedding can come from there.)

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

In Culver City, there is a grilled cheese restaurant called Meltdown that I really need visit.

I had no idea. Now I need to visit too.

We also have a restaurant that serves nothing but macaroni & cheese:

Oh dear. Now I need to go to New York. I love mac & cheese.

Speaking of, my son has a friend over & they had TJs mac & cheese for lunch. They split 1 container and asked for more! That's like 500 calories each for lunch. I have no idea what my son is doing with all that food he eats. I mean, he's growing, sure, but he isn't growing that fast.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

In Huntington Beach many moons ago there use to be a place that served everything over baked Potato. That is you started with your baked potato and the poured Mac N Cheese over it. Over meatloaf over it. Or just about about any standard cafeteria dish. I guess they just took the idea of covering baked potatoes with stuff and extrapolated to an insane degree.

I also remember a place that specialized specialized in Mexican food and Sushi. NOt fusion, just offered combinations with both. Not a success. (The potato place was still in business when I left SoCal, but I have trouble believing it lasted. Baked Potato bar is one thing - just pouring any old thing over baked potato, my guess is the market for that is limited.)

Anyone else have any weird eatery concept fail stories?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

In Huntington Beach many moons ago there use to be a place that served everything over baked Potato.

Decades ago, I used to eat at a place like that called One Potato Two in a mall in Green Bay. They were (are?) a chain, but I don't know how widespread.
