My mother wants a gift certificate to Olive Garden or Red Lobster for Christmas...
I guess that means I'm no longer DU worthy for getting her one.

:shrug:

1. Why are you posting during the game?
Granted I'm doing the same thing but I'm not a big Eagles fan.

How did you feel when about three of them dropped that interception?

4. I've been sick with the flu - I've slept thru most of the game
Got up for 5 minutes to check the score and post a bit - back to sleep for me.

3. I worked for Darwin Restaurants...
...and they were good to us. Get her the Red Lobster Gift Card. It is my favorite place to eat.

5. I thought it was Darden Restuarants
that's what my gift card is for - it's good for 4 of their restaurants.

7. someone once went to NYC and ate at the Olive Garden on Times Square
I forget who it was but it just seemed very unoriginal that being in NYC that was the best restaurant they could have picked.

10. I hate red lobster. I swear their shrimp are so tasteless they must be from the caribbean or some
hot climate. My father gets a bug in his brain once a decade that he wants to go to red lobster. We go. We leave. We say we are never going to go again. And then ten years passes and everyone forgets.

12. Yeah, but their cheddar bay biscuits are very yummy
Fortunately, you can make them on your own.

11. My little bro is getting a Red Lobster gift card as well
It's somewhere that he can take the whole family and get a meal that everybody can eat.
