Oh, big tapas would be excellent!

Eddie is so entertaining. I think my favourite part was the whole hashish/assasin bit with the picnic table. ^_^

We saw Eddie Izzard in Indy in May - probably the same show - and he was excellent. Laughed for 2 hours solid. I did, that is. Not him.

Round here they have a (very good) tapas restaurant. But the locals like value for money so they are the largest tapas I've seen. Damn, now I feel hungry.

Happy Birthday!

Oooooh! I do love POTO. THat's pretty impressive that the phones were silent. :)

Eddie Izzard is a comedian. He's a riot! ^_^

Totally agree about cell phones! But hey, I just saw Phantom of the Opera at the community center and nobody's phone went off. Of course they made a big deal about it...
I might be retarded -who is Eddie Izzard??

2008-06-02T00:03:00.000-04:00

Diesel - Wouldn't that be lovely? Sigh. Or maybe just make it legal to smack people who don't turn them off. Yes. I think that would be more satisfying.

Tshsmom - I can see having it on buzz for emergency if you have kids at home, but other than that, yes, stay home if you're too important to be out of contact with the world for 2 freakin' hours! :-P

2008-06-01T12:07:00.000-04:00

I think ALL cell phones should be banned from EVERY entertainment venue! If you can't survive without your cell phone for 2-3 hours, STAY HOME!

They should tell people to turn their phones OFF in theaters, not just silence them. Those things are bright, and hella distracting.

LOL! You could have a coronary right there. ^_^

2008-05-30T16:40:00.000-04:00

Yes! I believe that is what he called it. He said I should never go there. I don't eat a lot of meat and he fears that much at once would kill me or something.

Armie - Good for you for chewing out that kid! :)

Tori - I was so sure the server had said topless. I just assumed it meant the style of dining we were doing. It wasn't until Erica said "tapas" that I understood. I'd always assumed tapas was Mexican food. ^_^ I do, after all, live under a rock (not to mention the never eating out thing :-P ) "Dim Sum style" would have made more sense to me.

There's a restaurant here somewhere that does what you described your husband going to (with all the meat.) It's a Brazilian steakhouse. Apparently that's the style of serving. So says MuNKi anyway.

So many things to comment on I guess I will just choose this. One time, many years ago, my husband called and said he'd be home late because he was taking clients for a topless dinner. I was confused (but sort of happy that his company which is normally so conservative) would allow him to do this. I had no idea what he really said until I repeated the story to someone else and they laughed at me. Because I have great friends. And I am stupid sometimes. (I had never heard of it, obviously).

My husband also takes clients to some place where they bring out tray after tray of different meats and you just eat until you can't eat anymore. He always feels sick the next day from that one. I have no idea what style of dining that would be considered.

Eddie! Too funny that MuNKi got funny looks asking for a woman's shirt.

My biggest pet peeve is people messing with their phones during a movie or theatre event. I seriously get so angry and one time I totally chewed out a kid at a play who answered his phone and started talking during the opening number of Footloose. So rude!

Flaming marshmallows are a must at campfires!

Egan - Yes I'm being silly, you goof. ^_^

Next time I may kick an offender like that to the curb, but I didn't want to miss Eddie (more than she was causing me to anyway.)

Kitkat - yep. The place is called "Small Plates" and was exactly as you describe.

I think the kids are doubly blessed with the fire gene by both MuNKi and myself. :)

2008-05-29T08:03:00.000-04:00

I thought tapas referred to way the food is served (small dishes, shared by the whole table) rather than the country of origin. Anyway...

I'm a little taken by fire too. Anytime we have one in the fireplace (which isn't often), I can't stop poking at it. If we ever had marshmallows, I'd probably sit in front of the fire all night.

2008-05-29T00:59:00.000-04:00

Maybe there was Spanish or Basque food? I mean really, I've heard the "topless" tapas joke many times.

Kick the woman to the curb like the badass you are!

2008-05-29T00:34:00.000-04:00

Yes, the chick was definitely an iDiot. And thoughtless to boot.

I swear she said topless. And there was no Mexican food in sight.

2008-05-28T23:54:00.000-04:00

It's not the iPhone's fault. It's operator stupidity. Eddie, you lucky girl.

Um, you mean you were eating at a tapas restaurant don't you? You're so silly.
