Friday's Quizzlet: The Prayers, The Vitamins, The Vinegar.

Appetizer: If you could make an even trade for any car, what would you drive?
I gave my car to charity a few years ago. I never used it, and it was dilapidating rapidly. Wow, that was fun to say - rapidly dilapidating. I live about as downtown in Boston as you can get and can walk to work. But a new car is definitely on my horizon. If I traded in what I have now (nothing) for the equivalent, I'd obviously end up with a '72 Gremlin or a uni-rickshaw.

Soup: Take your phone number and add each number - what's the total?
Let's see here. The total is... carry the one... the total is a total waste of time. Which is perfectly at home here on Pye in the Face, but this is not your best work, Quizzlet. For shame.

Salad: When were you last outside, and what were you doing?
Two hours ago I was walking to work across Boston common in a black, long-sleeved button down and jeans. It's casual Friday, afterall. Unfortunately, it's also mid-July and strolling through Beantown is like being on the surface of Mars in a fur-lined snowsuit. So I'll be hitting the gym for a shower in the not too distant future. It's quite Presidential to walk into your office and then spend the next 30 minutes sweating all over interns, though.

Main Course: What's your favorite restaurant, and what do you usually order?
I have a bunch, and I've already mentioned Greek Food below, so I'm gonna go off on a tangent and talk about Gagsters. I drove over to the American side of Niagara Falls to hit this place about 7 years ago, and it's been on my mind fricking daily ever since. Huge, delicious square pizzas that can feed 6 people, tasty towers of Buffalo wing baskets with the best sauce I have ever tasted (so you know it's vinegary). If you're ever in the neighborhood (East Market Street) get your fat ass in there and make it a little bit fatter.

Dessert: Name 3 things in which you occasionally indulge.
Greek food is God. I will snarf down Saganaki and Dolmadakia like a blistered, twitching crack whore. I also have a weakness for NHL 2K5 and Hogan Knows Best at the moment. And here you thought I was going to say 'crack' or something. "Say your prayers, eat your feta and stay out of the meth labs, brother!"

App: I have a total chick car. VW Convertible. So not sure if it would be equivalent but in keeping with the convertible aspect, which I love, I think I would trade for a Jeep Wrangler. Ok, so not as girly but I could maybe get it in pink? Ick.

Soup: 38. What was the point of that again?

Salad: I was last outside driving to work. If doing 80 down the Pike with the top down doesn't wake me up in the morning, nothing will.

Main Course: Favorite restaurant is a place called Water Street Cafe in Stonington, CT. Very creative food with an asian flare. I always order the Warm Duck Salad or the Duck and Scallops. AFLACK!

Dessert:
1. Ice Cream of any kind.
2. Illegal substances
3. Sleep

I have my dream car - a Jeep Wrangler... the only thing next is to upgrade to a Rubicon.

Last outside... just a minute ago... and it was for a minute... new jobs - gotta love the productive pressure.

Food - I love all food... my Australian parents use to say I would eat a sh*t sandwich.

I try to indulge in sex... but that rarely occars so for now it has been riding 'Mexican' while I have been riding shotgun one of the best gratifications discovered by man... masterbation.

Appetizer: If you could make an even trade for any car, what would you drive?
Well, it would have to be a good trade – I love my car: a 2003 Mazdaspeed Protégé in Spicy Orange (I call her Agent Orange) sans disgusting rear tail. Sure, I could say Audi TT or S4 Convertible or BMW Z8, but that isn’t even close to even! Realistically I’d be looking at a Lexus IS 300 for my next vehicle.

Soup: Take your phone number and add each number - what's the total?
Is that all 10 digits or just 7? The two totals are: 45 and 35. Interesting because the latter is my age. Now what the f**k am I supposed to do with that info?

Salad: When were you last outside, and what were you doing?
An hour and a half ago having a smoke. Judging by my addition-o-meter it’s time to go again.

Main Course: What's your favorite restaurant, and what do you usually order?
My favorite restaurant is Gotham Steak House in Vancouver. I’ve been twice and never paid (once on the company dime another in payment for a favor). Where else can you get a $50 steak with nothing on the side? I love the porterhouse because its part t-bone and part tenderloin (kind of like the frosted mini-wheat of meat). A side note: professional career waiters make all the difference in a dining experience. If you get one, tip at least double your normal amount because he/she will be worth it.

Dessert: Name 3 things in which you occasionally indulge.
1. Mojitos
2. Marijuana
3. Muff diving
Usually in that order too.

I'm in Dave's spot. Don't have a car but see one on the horizon. I am frequently seen tooling around town in my wife's car, X-Terra. Don't be mistaken, I'm only borrowing it. A nice sports car would do me just fine.

Soup: Been crunching numbers all day, N/A.

Last Outside: About an hour ago to take a little cat nap. I'm exhausted after staying up all night to watch the Yanks choke.

Main Course: Depends on my mood and $$$ situation. Silvertones really should be up there though. I'm always down for there steak tips and martini's and it always fits my budget. Great place, too bad everyone in Boston now knows about it.

Dessert:

1) Marijuana, although I wouldn't use the term "occasionally"
2) Alcohol, I don't discriminate: beers, mixed drinks. Hey btw dave, had my first couple Dark & Stormy's. They really pack a punch
3) Gym, this is usually inversely related to alcohol and marijuana.

Not my best work Pyeman but I had to put down something. Customers are kicking my arse today!

App: lets see - I really like the jeep liberty I have now, but sadly it isnt yellow...and the only yellor color car I liked was my yellow xterra, so I guess a new yellow xterra, because it would be yellow, oh, and new.

Soup: Hmm 45 if you include the (1) before the area code, otherwise 44 - holy shit I must be bored

Salad: I was outside only an hour ago...outside my bldg downtown, wondering why I didnt call in sick or something and go to the beach...I guess dirty sidewalk sand and the occasional puddle of homeless urine will do for now

Maincourse: Hmm.....toughy, Love Tu Y Yo in somerville, and I usually get Tinga Chicken, its like old school mexican food...

Dessert: lets see....beer and wine or a cocktail, but they also qualify as all other courses...let me start over, a m*rijuana stick, a can of whip cream and...well I simply cannot divulge the rest

Now that I am completely bored at work, I was wondering if I could ask a question - whats the longest you've ever held your pee for? Whether it be on purpose or for fun. I think I am at 3 hours....

Yo Graeme... 4:20, time to indulge.

Holding my pee? I try not to after George Costanza raised the potential problems this could cause in a human being. Be careful over there Megan.

I'm glad to see the PITF re-energized. Welcome back, everyone.

P.S. When did my website turn into the parking lot at a Widespread Panic show?

In my youth, I was once at a "party" and was baked to the point where I was really self-conscious about having to go to the bathroom (who knows why, I was stoned!). Anyway, I drank a six pack and didn’t go for the three hours I was there. Needless to say, when we got outside I found a convenient bush (wasn’t shy at that point) and I kid you not, I pissed a constant stream for about 5 minutes. My friends were in the car waiting and started yelling at me to hurry up – they even drove over to where I was standing and pointed the headlights on me – but for the life of me I couldn’t cut it short. Moral of the story: go when ya gotta go!

Graeme, Friday 4:20 starts with the Marijuana then on to the Mojitos and finish the night off with a "muff" cap.
