I told you.... we've had our fun.... delete the whole thread. I'm fine with that. Then we start again, and if anyone pisses us off..... GONE!!! The first part is a good idea, the second part is just me being mean. But @GAD please, consider not carrying the weight of all this!! WHY??

This was on the door of the local Thai place and it made me laugh:

I used to work with a woman who was so cheap she would bring food to restaurants on our group’s Friday lunches out. It was pretty embarrassing. I was too junior at the time to feel like I could say anything about it.

Maybe she was too poor to be able to afford lunch. You never know what people have going on.

Awww, that sucks!! Feel better soon. I hate being sick....
I know this should be over in the Retirement thread, but I realized that the best thing about retirement is not having to force yourself to go to work when you're sick, or feel guilty and insecure when you choose to stay home.

That's for sure!! Shame to waste retirement days being sick, but no grief from anyone at least!!

Yeah, when I was in graduate school back in prehistoric times, my wife worked to keep the boat afloat. She would go to lunch with the gang at work sometimes, and take her own lunch. She was severely chastised by one venue for doing so. There really are two sides to this kind of thing. Restaurants don't make money providing tables for non-paying customers; but still . . . . . . . . . I don't think any of the work gang ever went back to that place. Makes me think of GAD's encounter at Normans Rare Guitars. GAD's reporting of his attempted visit "got around" here on this forum.

I’m still salty about that. As it would turn out that was my last chance, too, as I am no longer traveling and my daughter is no longer in LA.

I remember that!! What an awful experience. Norman should take a lesson from the late Stan Jay @ Mandolin Bros. in Staten Island. As soon as he heard we came all the way from Los Angeles, he personally gave us a tour and even took us upstairs to the SUPER EXPENSIVE AND RARE room!! Such a nice guy. What a great memory.
