Online Dating.

Alright so I've had a profile on match.com for more than a year now, but I never really used it. I went through the entire hassle of creating the thing, but I just couldn't push myself over the edge and act on it. Well, that's all changing. I got a few winks this week from some interesting girls (well at least they appear interesting), and I'm going to take the plunge. I'll let you all know how the train wreck goes.

Bad service and mandatory gratuity

I really hate getting bad service. When I get bad service, and I can't reflect that in the tip I hate that even more. 2 of our people got scallops. 5 minutes after bringing everyone else's dishes the waitress comes back to inform the scallop people that their dishes are going to take a bit longer. After another 10 or so minutes she comes out with only one of the dishes. 10 minutes later she comes back to inform the last scallop person that his dish ticket was missed and his meal would be out shortly. Another 10 minutes go by, and she hasn't stopped by yet. Half our group has finished their meal, and the last scallop person hasn't even got his. Additionally, my water glass was empty for the majority of this time. Total bs. Another 5 minutes goes by and she finally brings the last meal, no apology, no comping of the meal, just the meal.

I hate mandatory gratuity. This was at Mikado at Burnet and 183.

Alias Season Premier.

Since I'm going to be dancing on thursday, and a I know quite a few of you who also have plans thursday, I'm going to host an Alias party on Friday September 30th. The feed will most likely be a divxed HDTV feed with full surround sound (mmmm Kevlar Cones). Should be a rockin good time. If anyone wants to bring a game for afterwards that would be cool as well.

It finally happened

After many months of goading and peer pressure I have finally created a blog.
