    Re: Off Topic 2012

    I like both cause I can't fully vent my spleen here without being pinked, so I will run and Twit my nonsense and come back here feeling refreshed.
    I've heard this "patience is a virtue" junk all my life. I'm happy to say I have no virtue, no scruples, and no desire to wait too long for anything. In my humble opinion instant gratification takes too long!

      I should've, and forgot, to add that I assume based on her response that Drew is an ex, of some fashion, of hers. No proof of that whatsoever but it's what she wants me to believe.

      Not serious because I know she won't cheat and if she does, oh well - it's her loss, but still....don't try to **** with me. I'm a mind-game master.

          I've never heard that one before, though I think doing that would just spray blood all over the place.

          As for twitter vs. OT, I use both. Right now I'm just wondering if I'll reach 5,000 posts (currently at 4,872) or 5,000 tweets (currently at 4,647) first. Of course if it weren't for OT, I probably would have more than 1500 fewer total posts but also I probably would have a twitter if it weren't for OT (thanks ryan)

              Since I'm a bit late and this is my first post in OT 2012, Happy New Years guys.

              Secondly, the hell with this thread already. I miss one day and I'm behind 340 posts? Not to mention having to finish up reading OT 2011.

              Thirdly, I had a pretty good time last night, at least until the keg at the party I was at ran out by 11. SMH at being less than perfectly prepared for a New Years Eve party.

                I finally subscribed to Scout.com

                I hear Rivals is a little better, overall, but most people I know say Scout covers Auburn much better.

                I'm all ready glued to the site and can't leave

                  One of my goals my boss gave this year is to roll out "grab and go" sushi lunches for our cafe patrons.

                  I'm going to start with this "sampling" a few and creating recipes for them. I think I'll do this one first.

                    Do y'all get much business from people walking in off the street ?

                    It seems a little weird for people to go to a Hospital for lunch, unless they were all ready there. Most of the food you talk about does look/sound awesome.

                      That looks pretty damn amazing right about now.

                        Clinched the championship in one of my fantasy football leagues thanks to Matt Flynn. Have a 244-220 point lead and I have Hakeem Nicks left, he's got no one. Have a 209-174 point lead in the championship game of another league,have Hakeem Nicks and Eli left, he's got Felix Jones and Victor Cruz left.

                          It seems a little weird for people to go to a Hospital for lunch, unless they were all ready there. Most of the food you talk about does look/sound awesome.

                          We are the center of a pretty large medical area. Outlying Dr's offices, Rehab Facilty, Dentists Etc..

                          We got a ton of their staff and patients because we're very convinient (there's nothing else around for lunch) and low cost.

                          And, the hospital itself employs 1200 people alone, so we have a pretty captive audience.

                          All in all we do about 400-500 meals a day.


                          As for your question however, we do fax out our weekly menu to even further outlying buisnesses and get them in here too. I've helped change the outlook on the foodservice here (which is why I was hire in the first place) *get rid of the meatloaf bring in the steaks*.

                          For Christmas, we catered 3 outside christmas dinners for people that have nothing to do with the hospital other than have our food at outside functions.

                          I'd say outside the hospital, 8% of our daily patrons are just guests of the cafe.

                                But for a post here -

                                My girlfriend just tried to pull some bull on me, so she's now getting ignored until she apologizes. It's not even anything that bad, but the woman needs to learn.

                                I went to the Pats game today and by the time I got home I was tired and don't feel like going out and dealing with the drunk versions of her and her mom and probably her aunt. So I told her I was probably going to just go grab some food with my sister and her boyfriend.

                                She then tells me "Drew just showed up" so she's talking and texting and was distracted. I ask who Drew was as if I'm supposed to know, she ignores it. I ask once more about twenty minutes later and her response was: "well maybe it'll make you come see me."

                                Like I said, nothing too serious, but don't try ****ing with me saying a dude you used to **** is with your drunk self at a restaurant-bar. You're starting fights you won't win.
                                Perhaps that "Drew just showed up" text wasn't meant for you. I admit that during my heavy drinking days a text or two made it to unintended recipients.
