If we petition Lakoste-in a very respectable manner, of course-to waive the conditions imposed on the loser of the bet (you), do you think he would agree to this? I mean, c'mon...he seems like a reasonable guy-other than, possibly, his banana-eating technique.Hey people!! How are ya all! I will be taking a short hiatus from the forum for a month. Nothing happened with the mods and admins, I am not in trouble in any way...I opened my (sometimes) large pie hole and made a bet on the US Open which I just lost. Yeah...I know, I know. But I have no doubt that you all will keep the bistro alive and hopping in my absence and although I have no posting privileges for the next month I will still occasionally be stepping in and eavesdropping on the activity.
Take care and talk to you all soon.
I got 61 points. I guess I suck at USA states
I did know the general area where the states where located though.

Huffing and puffing....drags enormous wall sized map of the US into the bistro...if we can have 50inch screen tv's we can have maps too....we can study for jeopardy...geography that is....
Ah so it's Kosty that CC bet with....should have known!! I only had to start a thread listing 25 reasons why he was beyond amazing...lol
Lesson learned? Don't bet with Kosty....We'll start next week...Malakas will be teaching classes on betting here at the Bistro....
In the meantime, Marcie is helping out...excuse her spilling...maybe we can get Sup to work a shift or 2...I need to go upstairs and check the stock..we're running out of coffee...be back later...serve yourselves...the honor system....
Oh I got a kick out of the map game. I will think of a new link or perhaps a "guess this" for a free drink today. Movie quotes perhaps?
NAME THE MOVIE THIS QUOTE CAME FROM: "You can't win. You know that, don't you? It doesn't matter if you whip us, you'll still be where you were before, at the bottom. And we'll still be the lucky ones at the top with all the breaks. It doesn't matter. Greasers will still be Greasers and Socs will still be Socs. It doesn't matter."
BTW, the way work is going today, you may see a bartender like Homer Simpson than Moe. Either way Im in .. DOH!?
Anyone for a flaming Moe?

Sorry Phil, I'm not budging on the bet. Someone foolish enough to bet me that Nadal will win the US Open deserves time off to rethink what they have done:lol: ( I picked Federer BTW, it was a tough choice thoughIf we petition Lakoste-in a very respectable manner, of course-to waive the conditions imposed on the loser of the bet (you), do you think he would agree to this?

C'mon, people-we can't let the proprietoress of this place go without putting up a fight!
)She speaks the truth!
Someone better order a drink soon.
The guy at the end of the bar is the only ordering and he's making me nervous.

What a nice surprise...think I'll have a seat on the other side of the bar for once....May I have a raspberri stoli and diet tonic please? Takes a sip......mmmmm.just right.....refreshing...an excellent job Sup...you have the job! Not sure if Malakas will be giving the betting lecture tonight... Hey, we've got eyes for a reason, right? Hope that helps SF....btw, please give Bogart and Ilsa and meow from me....are they getting along?
I like a SMALL dab of cologne on a man. Too much just makes me want to get medieval on yo' as... I only like good cologne. Go to the nearest large department store (Nordstrom perhaps). Look for the men's cologne counter (usually one-tenth the size of the women's cologne/makeup area). In some stores, the men's counter is in the men's clothing section. Watch the counter for a moment or two to get a feel for the clerks there, then approach the friendliest looking one and say "hey there, I've never worn cologne in my life. May I ask for some take home samples?" They should be perfectly willing to give you little vials attached to fancy cards with the name and logo on them. DON'T let them spray crap on you, it will just over power you. Cologne smells different from person to person anyway.
Take your vials home and carefully take the top off one and smell it. Repeat until you find one that 'grabs' you. Dab a little bit on the pulse point of your wrist. Wear it for a few hours and see what you think of it, have a few others smell it. Try another one the next day, etc etc etc. Eventually you will find one that you like, then you can go to Ross/Marshall's and try to find it for half the price, or you can wait until all the special offers come out for Christmas and buy the one that has the best give away (umbrella, weekend bag, laptop bag, whatever).
Can I have the map, too!
So what was it that pushed you to become a metro-sexual?

Close. Mercedes.
They almost weld the new engine parts together that you can't even get to the battery without taking something apart. I rather not risk breaking something.
On that note, I've always wanted to trade it in and go simple like this:
I have not a clue!
Are these all from the same movie?
Obviously...if I had to ask that, I don't know it!
Worried, but didn't say a word.... Kept quiet and behaved throughout the whole ride... just like their two-legged father taught them to!
I have a doubles tournament this weekend. My partner is "Big Frank". His name suits him. I'm hobbling on one leg at the moment with a slight injury, but doubles will be okay and I'm hoping to be healed up by next week.
Topaz, we are on for Tuesday right?
P.S. It's been an awful week for me as well. One of those Garfield don't get of bed because its Monday days.
I can leave school as early as 4:30 on Tuesday.
