Don't make any more or you'll ruin the symmetry.

Very cool!

Down below 210 pounds for the first time since ???; I now have to deal with two weeks of formal events, scheduled lunches, and our agency's fitness facility being closed ...

Wow...the last person in the world that I'd have thought to join Facebook (after saying he'd never join during all four years of college) has just requested me as a friend.

I'm actually surprised by this.

Resistence is futile.

Yep,

even though I'm a bit facebook obsessed (at times), I didn't get around to joining the FT group until today.

Just hearing the words "Waffle House" is making me crave a double waffle with an OJ.

I forgot you missed breakfast. I had never been to a Waffle House before and I don't ordinarily eat breakfast at all. I see the little round picture of hash browns on the menu, so I order a triple covered and chunked. While driving around (and seeing some guys playing some cricket), I doubted I would actually be able to eat lunch.

It was so great in college - the local WH's waitress knew me and two of my friend's orders, so every time she saw my friend's red Explorer pull into the parking lot, she called in our orders.

Of course, our fourth friend could never make up his mind. So one day, she took a menu, wrote on it "Tom, make up your mind!", signed it, and gave it to him, which he promptly placed up next to his bed. Of course, it didn't change is indecision at ordering.

Fortunately, my fellow Deacs woke up to the bourbon discussion and Woodford was promptly mentioned by a majority of subsequent posters.

Just took them a few minutes to gather their consciousness after being knocked out by the thought of Beam being superior to WR.
