Title: TulsaNow Lunch Today - Bill and Ruth's 16th and Main
Post by: RecycleMichael on July 23, 2010, 07:26:54 AM
Based on the success of yesterday's lunch, everybody involved said do it again next week. The next unofficial lunch of the TulsaNow Forum will be on Tuesday, July 27 at the Bill and Ruth's sandwich shop at 1510 S. Main.

I will try and get there by 11:45 and we promise to hang out till 1pm (unless we get overcome by a women's high school basketball camp again).

It is election day so if you haven't voted, someone here can help you decide which candidate to deserves your mark.

Again the restaurant is casual...you order at the cashier and get your own drink refills. The prices allow a footlong sub, chips and a drink for $7. Even if you have other lunch plans, try and stop by just for a soda and the discussion.

Who thinks they can make it?

This particular Bill & Ruth's *really* likes it if you have exact change.  :-\

Are you used to paying for your days?   ;D

Will Mrs. Wevus and Baby Wevus be joining you?

Ask RM.  Normally my days pay me. 

I think it will probably just be Daddy Wevus this time, though I'll see if I can't pry them both out of the AC for a lunch out in the world.

I will be bringing gifts for all who attend. Nothing too fancy, but useful and nice.

My office is only 5 blocks from there, my brain can not get a visual of that Bill and Ruth's. (must be the drugs from the colonoscopy I had earlier today)   

However, I will find it, I'm putting it on my calendar and will be there.

I will get there a little early. If you are a new person to the forum and want to meet the other posters, come to lunch.

You can't miss us. We are the smart, good-looking people.

I will be there, thus avoiding being an equiangular rhombus.

Once again, it is a poster's birthday too.

looks like I'll not make it.  So much for the good-looking part.  Now the new folks just have to look for the group of average looking guys. :D

I'll also be sporting my Chicago Blackhawks Stanley Cup champion hat, to make me a little easier to identify.

Stopped voted, got there about 12:40 you guys had split.   I figured at least a few would be there till 1pm.  Oh well, enjoyed my sandwich and talking to myself.

My apologies. We kinda broke up around that time. I will buy your lunch next time.

We decided the next one should be in two weeks at Jim's Never on Sunday Coney Island.

I was surprised at how many world celebrities eat at that restaurant. I wanted to get my picture taken with Carrie Underwood, but Prince Harry's bodyguards kept standing in front of the potato chip rack.
