  1. Secret ingredients are majestic, until they cease to be secrets anymore. I learn from television, eating Cheetos and the like while I'm at it... **************************************************************** Man: This drink is delicious. And my phlegm feels looser. What do you call it? Homer: It's called a Flaming-- Moe: Moe! That's right a Flaming Moe. My name is Moe and I invented it, that's why it's called a Flaming Moe. AND THEN: Homer: The secret ingredient is -- Moe: Homer, no! Homer: Cough syrup! Nothing but plain, ordinary, over-the-counter children's cough syrup! Flaming Moe's
  2. That focaccia rocks!!
  3. This passage reminds me of "The Love Song of J. Alfred Proofrock" or something; Seeing things in the right light... Between this description and the Ten Penh already-been-eaten story, I really have no need for edamame anymore. Is it supposed to make you want to eat?
  4. 'member this: http://forums.egullet.org/index.php?showtopic=22084 I mean article by Candy Sagon...
  5. We're on the same wavelength... Here it is: https://secure.washingtoncitypaper.com/cgi-...x=119&next.y=15
  6. Woo Hoo! They listened to me! Thanks, Mr. Nuttycombe. This week: "Plus Ça Change..." All of Todd Kliman's other columns Only articles from the last 4 weeks are free. Damn, I wanted to read "The Empire Stikes Again" again, but it's $2.95. What's next, WCP archived in Lexis-Nexis?! God is too good sometimes. PS: "Dessert Storm"
  7. I love the way 15th Street covers 15th Street
  8. I know. It's like, where the hell is Palena?
  9. WTF!? What is up with this? If you google Gerard's Place, you get 560 hits. This link came from the 10th of 560 hits and appears on the first page of results. I agree, it is troubling that a restaurant as widely known and respected as this one would have this (hot dog and wings) site quoted as being their own. Gerard's need to get medieval on someone's ass for this...or maybe join the rest of the world and get a website. It was a search that took 0.17 seconds. Come on, tell me you didn't laugh at the big rubbery hot dog. You know you did.
  10. http://www.ramw.org/docs/NomineeAnnouncementdraft.doc PS: Seems rather reader's pick-esque
  11. Wow! This place is popular. It's catching up with Nectar's 7168 views... and the Nectar thread was started much earlier. I have no attention span and a neglected day job, so I have never read this stuff...
  12. I agree with much of what you say, kendra... and as for food, it's beg for more cheese or sit for two hours and watch a scripted FOOD NETWORK demo and only get a morsel. The tickets are too expensive to have civilian drunks wandering around on empty stomachs. I would never buy the tickets myself. This year I declined to accept them (lied and said I was busy).
  13. I have been complimentary a couple of times because I have pour* friends, but I just remember being hot and bored, and the place started to reek after a while. I'm not saying for sure that there wasn't anything good, I'm saying that my attention span is short and that monkeys belong at the zoo. It just sucks carrying around your coat and that glass and feeling like mutton. It's supposed to be like 60 degrees and sunny on Sunday, so maybe that's the day to skip a convention. Am I too negative?
  14. I imagine The Simpson's influenced him. He saw how great the Christmases in Springfield could be and was oddly inspired by the story of Santa's Little Helper. REMEMBER THAT ONE: "Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire" 101 7G08 Original Airdate: 12/17/89 Christmas is nearly ruined when Marge has to spend all of the family's gift money to remove Bart's tattoo. Homer becomes a department store Santa to raise more cash, but bets it all at the dog races on a hot tip from Barney. Homer and Bart save Christmas by adopting the losing greyhound, Santa's Little Helper.
  15. Tom, where are you? Can you chime into this one?
  16. Here's a fun game: How many of you are regularly tuned into Tom's live chat and submit questions (that are posted). Reply to this post if you do. Maybe someone we know is whining. The question was about a trend. Something becomes a trend when more than a few people are doing it. I don't think it says a thing about whether he thinks Steve is a trend-setter... We already know that Steve's desserts rock. Very analytical reading, I say...
  17. What about The Simpsons? Did you still get your dose of FOX on Sunday?
  18. I wonder if a little mini guy could finish dinner at Nectar. The Little People of American, an advocacy group, is all worked up about this show. The thing is, though, everyone on reality TV is that little...
  19. The show tanked; only 7.5 million viewers. I can't believe two or three of them were people I know.
  20. Uh-oh, Souperstar just woke up.
  21. Another enjoyable Young & Hungry column this week ("Dessert Storm" on page 50). Check it out! Steve Klc, did you really say, "like f%cking Starbucks"? City Paper is refreshing that way, but I'm still waitng for them to regularly post this column online (Ask them if they will: hungry@washcp.com).
  22. Plus, it's not PC to use slang in a family newspaper. I'm sure he doesn't want to offend the local ventworm population, zip code 20815 (teasing).
  23. Good question. Some strange people out there. WHP Wine Hungry Person
  24. I wonder how this guy did, though. City Paper! Come on, snuggling with a cat isn't even a possibility. HOMEBODY SEEKS HOMEBODY. SM, 40's, ISO SF, 28-40y.o., WHP, any race/religion, for conversations philosophical and frivolous, dinner out with friends, Scrabble, divvying up household chores, walks in the park, moral support, the occasional movie or show, sharing some laughs, quiet times at home together, snuggling with the cat. 44424 (exp. 2/26)
  25. UNO's is as good as it gets! Then go throw up on Benetton clothes next door. They're really pushing the whites early this year... Awh, do look at me like that
