The one I am going to is the Morton's next to NBC, so it's a big industry lunch spot. Mostly old guys.
You two carried me through that war. Now I need you to carry me just a little bit further. If you can.

move out and draw fire
Shortly after I left my old office, my boss took everyone on the project to Morton's for breakfast.
1. I did not know Morton's served breakfast. 2. ~50 developers + work breakfast ?? I'm thinking boss had to pay for like two guests.
And with that, I'm going to bed, as my stomach feels oddly queasy. I think it was joe just throwing (p)Rick Santorum's name up on the board like that, without any warning.

Rick Santorum - still more nauseating than bestiality.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

It's like a campaign slogan, only true!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Morton's is very old school steakhouse, all about the seared meat, the crisp white tablecloths and the attentive wait staff.
I've only eaten at Morton's once, the original Chicago location, last summer. And the "attentive wait staff" thing? Truer words were never spoken. I have never had better service. And the food (and wine -- GUH) was amazing. A single-cut filet mignon with bernaise sauce (sorry, folks, but I had it cooked medium well, as I'm not fond of mooing meat) and a lobster tail, with asparagus in hollandaise sauce (and I don't even *like* asparagus, but -- YUM), with 25-year-old Charles Krug cabernet sauvignon. The dessert (godiva cake and the best key lime pie I've had anywhere, ever) was almost overkill.

He has recently backed off the statement that he won't make a presidential bid in 2008. Certainly that doesn't mean he will run and I'd be doubtful that he'd get out of the primaries, but just imagine the circus that would be if it was Satorum vs. Clinton in 2008.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I'm updating my resume on Monster.
I'm wondering, since I've never been anything but someone's dumbass assistant/secretary/minion, can I even think about applying for management jobs? Will anyone even take that seriously?
I feel stuck.

Damn. Now I'm super hungry.
Where shall I go for lunch?

Oddly enough, I really want a steak.
Mostly, I want to sit outside and have a nice lunch.
