Tentative Announcement: Creep Week

Any takers for making creep week official?

Speaking of creepy...Mr. X was spotted twice today wearing his red outfit. He was headed north at 12:30 towards the break room and south at 1:30 towards the bathroom.

Update: Spiderman 3 = Lame and and Pei Wei = awesome!

Spiderman 3 officially kinda sucked. It was OK, but you only get to see Venom for like 10 minutes and Sandman gets all soft and philosophical on you at the end. Also, the first 30 minutes is a total chick flick, plus there's a completely random dance sequence. No kidding. That stuff would be fine if I had paid to see west side story, but I did not. I wanted to see some awesome Spider stuff. I was only mildly pleased.

Pei Wei on the other hand was delicious and lived up to all its expectations. Jenn Marcie and Noy participated in this event. Jenn tried to convince us to eat family style, but it was vetoed since that would not stay true to our American heritage.

My fortune: "Someone you care about seeks reconciliation"

I thought it was about Chris, but then I re-read it and since it says I have to care about the person that pretty much rules him out. Anyone else want to apologize for something they did to me?

Red Robin versus Pei Wei







Red Robin was the choice of the day. Red won out over Pei Wei in a very narrow margin. The electoral college could have overthrown the vote, but chose to go with the popular vote's choice. It was delicious, by the way. Red had a special message for Jerry: "Hey buddy, don't be a stranger...my feathers are here for you!"

The tradition continues...











Q Shack Wednesday! Pat, Tothy, Eleni, Alex and myself enjoyed some delicious treats at the Original Q Shack in Durham today. Eleni paid her basketball debt to Alex , who maxed out his $10 limit with a pork butt plate with seasoned fries and mac + cheese. Toth Pat and Baxter played it safe with a beef brisket sandwich, while Eleni was disappointed by the barbecue chicken. The food was great, but Pat was perfect-topped by someone in front of him in the drink line.

Mr. X Speculation

Yesterday was possibly the closet encounter ever with Mr. X. Upon exiting the building he was spotted going to lunch and ended up riding in the car right next to us. Some additional speculation about MR. X's diet below:
  • he only eats candy corn shaped objects such as: pizza, quesadillas, pie, gumdrops, snow cones, ice cream cones (must be in the cone).
  • favorite fruit: pears
  • favorite vehicle: tricycle

Cracker Barrel Delight


Today we ate at Cracker Barrel on Aviation Blvd. It was quite delicious. Attendees included Pat, Jenn, Noy , and McNasty and myself. Our 1-star waitress, Ashley, performed like a 4-star Cracker Barrel General, bringing us delicious biscuits and cornbread before and during the meal. A Cracker Barrel first: Biscuits were actually left on the table because the food was so plentiful.

Pat mentioned this great painting by Luke Chueh at lunch....thought I'd share.
