It might be in Disney world. The best parking space it have.


Yes, Johny, the best parking space it does, indeed, have.

Makes me wonder. Who gave these kids the idea about stabbing?
did they see it online on the internet?

as for horrified stuff.. I have to say, I'm seriously disappointed by the opinion of many individuals defending Ricky sexist "butt grabbing" action in the new spirit thread. Specially those who say "bah, the CMS have seen worse!".
And also gets kinda creepy when they again mentioned the actor stalkers; who have literally harassed, followed, tried to meddle and affect the actor's real life.


I'm not sure but I did poke around on that site... it's kind of a fan fiction site, from what I'm gathering, but it's awfully dark. It makes me wonder what on earth these girls were really into and how did their parents not notice such a dark side to their personalities? I've done my fair share of dabbling and my Mom was on it. She didn't miss a beat. I don't get it. I'm having a lot of conflicting emotions about this.

As to the CM stuff I absolutely agree with you. There's no "right" way to grab someones butt, even if it's 'all in good fun' as another poster over there stated. Good fun for you, maybe, but certainly not the person you just handled. And the stalking is straight up scary stuff.

This has gotten way too serious, so here's some beagles.

None of them are mine but I would adopt all of them in a heartbeat.

I'm not sure how Olive Garden stays in business around here. There is a pizza place in EVERY shopping center where you can get any Italian dish imaginable at far better quality and far less cost.

Same here - it makes no sense to me at all. Their sister restaurant, Red Lobster, closed years ago because they couldn't compete with the local seafood places here. Personally I avoid OG anyway - I have issues with garlic, and it's pretty hard to find anything there that isn't overloaded with it.
Both the closest Olive Garden and Red Lobster are almost 30 minutes away. Going there, or even the Carrabbas 15 minutes away, I will pass more Italian restaurants and pizzerias than I can count. I'm less than 10 minutes from seafood restaurants with a dock in the back where they get deliveries right off the boat.

So I tend to get very snobby when it comes to both fare. Why pay $17 for a pasta dish at Olive Garden when I got a similar dish with fresh ingredients for $12 in a strip mall pizza place. They usually have a fancy dining room in the back too just so Olive Garden doesn't win on ambiance either.

On a serious note, I'm positively horrified of the current news report of two 12 year old girls attempting to stab their friend to death, to gain entrance into a (fictional) group surrounding a (fictional) character, Slenderman.

Positively. Horrified.

I think it's struck me so hard because as a 12 year old, I was a passionate reader and I absorbed EVERYTHING. I had already graduated from RL Stine's "Goosebumps" and was already reading Stephen King and Dan Simmons and Frank Herbert.

I can see how it would be easy for the very active mind of a young person to make associations that simply aren't... there... and want so desperately to connect to a character- even if it's supposedly fictional. That's a delicate age group, one where the mind is switching tracks from fun characters and imagination to a more adult, grown setting. It's hard to learn the balance and recognize it. I'm not trying to justify what they did- at that age, you do know the difference between right and wrong. It's just so scary, from a book junkies point of view. I can see the 'trap' and allure that a fictional character could have. But this one is terrifying.

I'm glad their intended victim survived, but the damage to all three families is beyond measure. My heart goes out to them... all of them.
Surprisingly this took place in Wisconsin and not Florida. I actually have family that live in the same city as them, just outside of Milwaukee.

Dessert & Coffee:

Vanilla pudding filled brownie with vanilla gelato. Hubby's, although I bet you thought it was mine.

His was a fairly small portion, but he said it was absolutely perfect.
I didn't try any (despite being offered) because I didn't want to share any of mine.

Creme brûlée (obviously):
View attachment 55474

FYI - If creme brûlée is offered, I will always pick it.

In summary, our meal voucher/dinner for two was $78. The crab cakes, up charge and tax came to another $26. Add 20% tip, and we were out of there for $46 total.

On the JenniferS scale - a solid 9.5/10. Service was also excellent.

Thanks for the food ! :hungry:
The can of minestrone soup I just had for lunch couldn't even be considered food light compared to that feast. :(

;)
