Vegetable Smakk
Ok. There are just certain things that you do not do when you are with a group of your guy friends. Some refer to these as Man Rules. Well let me give you a little example from a mid-week lunch that I had with some of the Crew.
Waitress - "So what will you guys be having today?"
LRod - "I'll have the chicken tender platter."
Wu - "I'll have the chicken platter also."
Smakk - "I'll also have the chicken platter but buffalo style."
Loops - "I'll have the vegetable plate."
Nice lunch order Alice....

Airport Smakk
What is it about an airport that makes it such a beating to wait around? I spent a few hours yesterday at the one in Richmond, VA waiting on my AA (American Airlines, not the AA you all know) flight back to Big D. You would think I would be content considering most necessities are right there for me - bars, crappy food, lots of random people to watch and ridicule, moving sidewalks, men's magazines, etc. (Quick sidebar - who actually buys the Hustler or Swank at the airport newsstand? Do you just sit on the plane crammed beside a couple strangers while you browse through some nice muff shots? Loops, I'm sure you have an answer to that.)

Anyway, they pretty much have the things that I look for in my everyday life but something about the airport just sucks all the fun out. Is it just knowing that you are at their mercy on when you will get to your destination? I'm thinking that's it. So to test this there, I think I need to round up the crew and have each of us buy some meaningless cheap ticket to where ever just to get past security and party all day in the terminal. And if it gets too rowdy, there's plenty of cabs right at the curb.
