[Night Owl]

I might be able to make this one. So I am officially a maybe.

[Scarlett]

If Night Owl goes...then I will go.

[THEMEANOGRE]

I'm sorry, Gang, on a Sunday, I am stuck in Cove. No bus service.

Jealous!!!!:)):)):))

[Rick]

LOL no, it's just that I am not convinced that you have the whole "eating with utensils" thing down pat...:bluerofl

Looking forward to meeting you!

[Scarlett]

Looking forward to meeting you!

Ok...that was funny...in a completely-uncalled-for-and-rude kinda way!

[THEMEANOGRE]

Why wouldn't you wish NO to be there. After all, it is a barbecue place and I have encountered very few of those where that particular skill set was necessary.

[Night Owl]

BBQ is finger food.

[Rick]

Ok...that was funny...in a completely-uncalled-for-and-rude kinda way!
Aww, he knows I was just messin' with him!!! (he likes the attention)


Reminder: Let us know if you are bringing someone with you so we can get a rough estimate of how many will be attending.

[Night Owl]

No, I'm very shy and soft spoken.:thumbsup

[Texas Immigrant]

I would love to go, but that's my weekend to work at Applebee's. Have fun!

[Spartan]

This time I can't go -- previous commitment. THEMEANOGRE, you never have to depend on public transport. If I'm availablem, I will gladly provide transport for you. There may be other good souls on this Forum who can provide when I'm unable to do so.

[secretary]

Picking up my mom from the airport that afternoon. Eat lots for me! ::)

[gnatsum]

LOL no, it's just that I am not convinced that you have the whole "eating with utensils" thing down pat...:bluerofl
!

Unless they have a KILLER 'nana pudding, then you HAVE to use a spoon! (the ONLY reason they have spoons in BBQ restaurants! :13:

[kryptickancer]

I dont think Ill be able to attend, but who knows. My schedule is kinda crazy lately.

[Rick]

If you're planning to bring someone, let me know. Will give them a heads up later in the week.

Thanks.

[christine]

[Gramps]

Gramps, AllyB, Puppyeyes09, BabyBlue and 3 guests will be there.

[RalphCossey]

You will all be assimilated. But not on Sunday afternoon.

Maybe I can hitch a ride on a Borg sphere to attend, but noon is tight.

[beenateacher4ever]

I will definately be there...no unseend obstacles this time.

[SamBrown]

How exciting... I will be there with a guest if I am not too late to RSVP (I hope not).

[Rick]

Good deal, more people we haven't met yet.

[kryptickancer]

[beenateacher4ever]

That is a different BBQ place..Reds...or something like that

[Rick]

Yes, Reds is on 195. We went there tonight since wife won't be making it tomorrow. Reds makes some very good brisket.

I called Big Hoss and they will be expecting us at noon.

See ya there!

[Rick]

That was the most fun lunch we have had yet.

Thanks to all who came out and to Big Hoss BBQ for having us. The food was great!

We even had a few new faces this time.

[bjflores]

Indeed, it was a very fun lunch. It was nice to finally put some faces to some people.
Bernadette

[Scarlett]

Absolutely the best one yet.
I had a blast, and learned the universal sign for TMI! hahahahaha

[BillK]

Actually comes in useful periodically - BTW - they gave me lunch FREE - they said that what I ate was not on the menu...

I left a pretty sizeable tip.

Bill

[Scarlett]

It wasn't on the menu...how many freaking VEGETARIANS go to a BBQ joint?!?! Haha

[Rick]

Apparently, the smart vegetarians go to BBQ Joints. :))

On a side note, Big Hoss BBQ is our newest sponsor!!! :clap

[THEMEANOGRE]

Dang, I'm sorry I missed this one. I'm not a big fan of BBQ, but just to have hung out with everybody.

[BillK]

You can imagine that I am not a big fan of BBQ either - but the company was worth it.

Fun meal.
Bill

Only those who like to be with their friends, who don't put them down for it or make fun of them <grin>.
Bill

[Rick]

It just hit me, the only two lunches Bill has attended were at BBQ places....hmmmm

LOL! Whats up with that Bill??:)

[BillK]

LOL! Whats up with that Bill??:)

I like Dick Young, so I went to the first one to see what you all were like. I liked you (I usually ilke people) and so I have attended all those that I have been in town for.

Today my wife was going to a "couples baby shower" - quite frankly I would have scheduled a high colonic to get out of that so this was high on my agenda! <grin>

Bill

[THEMEANOGRE]

Bill, too bad "Heavenly Salads" went away, huh?

[BillK]

Bill, too bad "Heavenly Salads" went away, huh?

Yes - good stuff! <grin>
I don't have a problem getting good food around here and Austin either. It is becoming a great place to eat out.

I like Thai and Indian food - we just really need a better option for mexican food... I cannot find one that I like.

Bill

[skindog]

REALLY need to send out notices LOL. Please let me know when the next one is about a week before so I can schedule my attendence :-)

[Gramps]

Rick or Scarlett normally send out a notice several weeks in advance. Looking back to the first post in this thread, the original notice for the November 22nd luncheon was posted on November 4th.

[syntaxtalk]

Yes - good stuff! <grin>

Bill, have you tried El Taco Jalisco on Rancier? Place has great barbacoa and carnitas.

[BillK]

Is that the one that used to be a dairy queen? and is across from the senior center? If so - yes - I have tried it. What I forgot to mention is that I am vegetarian and so a "traditional" beans with lard in them are not something that I enjoy.

Manuels is my favorite mecixan restaurant in Austin currently.

Ah, well then. I usually go for the churro beans there, but if you can't eat meat, then I wouldn't recommend it. Good churro beans, though.
