Success - Lunch with asthmaticeog.
Great fuckin' guy. But those of you who know him know that already.

I won't have any pics for a week and a half, but lunch was fun (and very good).

11. No, we went to Jake's Famous Crawfish
The gentleman had Clam Chowder and some special sort of Halibut.

I had the Crawfish Etouffee and two glasses of Pinot Gris.

But when you come to Portland next, nnns, we'll go to Goldern Horse for Pepper & Salt Squid.

23. Damn, that sounds good
I haven't been to Portland in ages (13 years to be exact). I need a good excuse to go out that way. Great food, great beer, great wine, great weather...

4. So what deep fried items were on the menu?
What? The man thinks "hot pockets" qualifies as a food group. :P

6. Noooooo! Hot Pockets are a subset of the
more general "processed crap" food group. Donuts, however, are in a food group unto themselves :crazy:

9. asthmaticeog is too difficult to type all the time
Edited on Fri Sep-02-05 07:25 PM by jpgray
Let's just call him Asth, or Asthy for the less-diminutive diminutive.
