Re: KenCPollock-I am being run off Style Forum
More and more I find myself saying 'bless you' to waiters rather than thank you.
No idea why. It just slips out.
I'm getting to be a bit of a lovable old buffer I suspect...

The Brits. have "mate" as a useful term. There isn't really an equivalent in American English.

Re: KenCPollock-I am being run off Style Forum
I hate to sound odd, but I have taken my own bread to Ruth's Chris in Atlanta several times. Their French baguette is soft, gooey and tasteless, an insult to the honor of France. One time our favorite waiter there, when confronted with my own wine glasses, wine basket and bread, inquired: "What next? Will you bring your own steak?"
I am happy to announce that they recently got some excellent wines glasses, saving me some schelping.

I rarely eat bread anymore, so there is no way it is a deal-breaker for me.

Re: KenCPollock-I am being run off Style Forum
Hi! My name is Tom! I will be your server tonight! Not your damn waiter, I'm performing a robotic function. I have a list of 10 specials (no one on the staff can write so we can't supply a piece of paper with the menu), that have been invented by the latest idiot that we hired just out of culinary school because he will work cheap. His taste is terrible but because he knows all these odd sauces that are unsuited to the basic meals that we serve he helps us justify our high prices. Oh and god forbid you son of a bitch that you should ever ask for a decently cooked steak or a piece of fish. If you did we would have to direct you to some half way decent restaurant like the 21 Club or the Grand Central Oyster Bar where they charge high prices and give you a decent meal and good service in return. (The lowest waitress at GCOB can describe every oyster flown in fresh to perfection). But I have an acting class to go to in the morning, so basically go screw yourself.
Ken, have you considered that you are writing into websites where a lot of waiters subscribe?

ps. I feel I could give an even wittier reply if you would supply us with your description of first and second rate porno flicks. Like Dante, I have an interest in degrees of perversion.

Very good Tom!
But let's get back on track - How is the chase going? Is Ken hounded off yet?

Jerry/Ken despite my cheeky post above I remain a fan of yours.
Your's is THE post on TNSIL. The rest is all chatter.
