I have noticed that with many post there seems to be some that can get other's off of the topic.  Has this happened in any of your threads? What examples can you give?

Avril Lavigne is hot.  Not sure what's up with the strange ties and all that, but I'm ok with it.  Different is good, so long as it isn't too different I suppose.  Different can be bad too.  But hot young women are good.  How young is too young?  -10 years is still OK (assuming > 18) right?  Is it a sliding scale, when I'm 40 can I check out 20 year olds?  I can't wait to be a dirty old man.

What were we talking about?

Is this another restaurant thread?

Nothing good ever comes from bad restaurants,  because they are bad.  That's why I don't read crime novels anymore.

I thought Ian Flemming created James Bond.   I didn't realize that he also enjoyed custards so much...

What does bond paper have to do with custard, and is there a custard bond paper.  Seems like it would be a very nice paper to write on.

I like corn.

I think Flemming Foods makes it. It comes in various flavors so secret agents can eat the notes that are slipped to them after they read them.
School kids like it too so their dogs can eat their homework easier.

Flam
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In percussion, a flam is a drum rudiment consisting of a quiet "grace" note on one hand followed by a louder "primary" stroke on the opposite hand. The two notes are played almost simultaneously, and are intended to sound like a single, 'broader' note.

Flams can be combined with many other different rudiments, such as a paradiddle which will result in a flamadiddle, or a triplet which will result in a flam accent.


Surprisingly, Flamadiddle was one of the names we were considering for our first born child.

Do not joke about the flamadiddle, RM.  That rudiment is what got me to first chair in junior high band.

For a couple of months there, I had the best flamadiddle in school.

On that note -

In my Hometown the water pipes are also very old. Flammers are the minority, so they get all the jobs. Flamers, on the other hand, always eat flan down by the undeveloped river. They should be deported, and those that sell them the flan should be flamed, flammed and fined.

The entire flan industry may fall apart, and we'll all pay for that - except we'll save money in the long run when we see they haven't paid any taxes - so there will be a surplus by the end of the year. That way we'll build the ball park down by the river and provide flan sales jobs for real Americans. They'll be white and racist - KKK people, of course. Or maybe Midtown Elitists who are against boxes in their yards and signs on the street - you know, Old Money and Bluebloods. They'll take over the flan business and the North Side will continue to go backwards because of a refusal to agree with taxes they can't and won't possibly pay.

I think it's the Mayor's fault, because if the Belvedere had been above-ground then we all know the River Tax would have passed and the street lights would be facing the right way, LED or not, and all the homeless wouldn't be downtown asking people for money. That's why they've all gone to 71st Street, which isn't really Tulsa at all. Tulsa stops at the Coney I-lander that's re-charging everyone's credit card four dollars and something every week. The Coney Place by TU that has that terrible construction that's bad for bicyclists that ought to be down by the river anyways.

All this talk of Conies has made me hungry.

Anybody know of any good Italian restaurants in Tulsa?

Do they serve flan?

I've heard that Flemmings has a fantastic flan. While I don't fancy flan, I do find it fascinating that there may be a fabulous, flaming flan flambé topped with fiddle faddle available from Fadlers that they sell at Flemmings.
They come in custard –bond paper cups.

Flan is good, lot's of good places here to get it, but Coney's haven't found a place yet that comes close in the 10 years that I have been here, and the last time I had any was November of '04 while I was in Tulsa for my mothers funeral. My wife has never been east of Tulsa and wants to go to Memphis, so I'm looking into flying into Tulsa and spending a couple of days seeing family and friends and then driving over to Memphis for a few days, so Coney-I-Lander is on the schedule.

I had to take two dozen to a friend of mine up in Breckinridge when I was driving up one time.  I can't imagine they were worth a crap after 14 hours on ice, then frozen/re-heated.

DBack,
I used to live out there and love Nello's Pizza. I missed getting one when we were out there at Thanksgiving. I also missed the chicken fried steak at Texas Grill. It's the best! I wish I could have 'em here....now!

Buzz...you seem to want to get into the food delivery business, why not try to set up an interstate food delivery. Ink a deal with FedEx to ship the food, 24 hours from order to delivery, styrofoam packages to keep it fresh, heat it up when it arrives and everybody's happy. You could start out by shipping Coneys to DBack.
Imagine the possibilities.
Remember, you heard it here first.
