My Dinner With AD...

Alternate title: Now there's another restaurant that ain't gonna let us back in...

So, we had a little soiree, an event, a luau in honor of the one, the only Ambulance Driver. He's in the area for a couple local (ish) EMS conferences, and I'm still trying to atone for the first dinner at Hilltop with the forgettable (regrettable) meal, so we went to Carrabba's. The food is decent, we had a room all to ourselves (which was sheer genius on the part of the Carrabba's staff), and the company was excellent.

In attendance were:

Libertyman
Weerdbeard
Old Windways
SCI-FI
Kyle
Ambulance Driver
TOTWTYTR
Borepatch (in spirit, he texted me to send his regards)

(Most of the) group shot:

Look out world!

Kyle is out of the shot, and SCI-FI is taking the picture. He, like TOTWTYTR, doesn't care for having his picture on the internet, something I know nothing about...

TSA probulation, the strange ways of southern rednecks and how they don't differ all that much from Maine yankees, the proper way to "address" a recalcitrant goat (let's just say that "animal husbandry" means different things to different people, and the wonders of Orloff vodka and Dixie beer were all matters for discussion. Another topic was the recent hog hunt down in Texas that AD and TOTWTYTR participated in, as well our our humble VC host Alan. And speaking of Alan, these tables reminded us of him:

Lone Table

You see, those two tables were off in a corner of the room they had set up for us, and looked kinda sad and lonely over in the corner with no silverware or anything on them. We all agreed that they looked kinda like a

shun bench

and that Alan would feel right at home...

All in all, a good time was had by all!

That is all.

A small group, but very cordial! Thanks Jay for making it happen.
