[Placebo]

[Placebo]

[LoZoccolo]

One up on Gunnison and some other street...I wanna say Nagle? But I could be wrong.

[OldLeftieLawyer]

19. Treasure Island

Peasants. Treasure Island. Only Treasure Island.

My colon is made of meat, I think.

[Placebo]

21. Treasure Island is for yuppies

And damn do I love Treasure Island :P

[OldLeftieLawyer]

22. Yuppies?

Listen.

When we moved to Chicago, back in the early seventies, we picked where we'd live precisely because a new TI was opening in the 'hood. We ended up taking an apartment at Clark and Armitage, and the day the Treasure Island across the street from Second City opened - I think it was 1971 - I was the first damn customer to check out.

I loved having groceries delivered. That was just great.

Yuppies? Hell, thirty-four years ago, we were just people who loved good and exotic food.

Welcome to the club, child ......................

[Placebo]

25. Damn.

I have truly been put in my place.

I heart yuppies!...like myself! :D

PS that's pretty cool that you have all that Chi-town history in ya.

[LoZoccolo]

26. Have you actually made the mayonnaise figaro?

That would be one way to show how much you love Treasure Island. I remember thinking it would be good, but I haven't written it down from the front window to try it.

[datasuspect]

7. you said meat

[Gato Moteado]

11. which dominick's did you shop at?

i used to go to the one on milwaukee and nagle and when i moved to andersonville there was one on laurence avenue.

[LoZoccolo]

14. Either the two-story one near the red line on Fullerton...

...or the one on Broadway that burned down.

[chaska]

15. I'm not a vegetarian, but I really don't appreciate this childish...

rubbing of salt in people's wounds.

DU does this a lot and it really stinks.

[LoZoccolo]

16. Speaking of salt...

This is like, my favorite steak seasoning EVER! :bounce:

[StopTheMorans]

23. it's informative for those who do not have the wherewithal to purchase

meat at higher prices. i, for one, salute the OP's good sensibilities :thumbsup:

[progmom]

17. why?

this is silly.

[LoZoccolo]

18. If they can get you in the door with a few good deals...

...then it's likely you'll do the rest of your shopping for the week at their store rather than Jewel. It's probably a very delicate play, this balance between giving the customer some low prices and coming out ahead, but it's probably almost a science by now, at least parts of it.

[progmom]

20. what i meant was

why post this today, when our vegetarian friends are asking for us to be respectful of their choices?

[StopTheMorans]

24. the respect issue is a two-way street; and i think that both sides have

plenty to work on.

[OldLeftieLawyer]

28. Hmmmmm?

No discussing meat because vegetarians might be offended?

Am I reading that right?

OK, bring it on - I am made almost entirely of meat......................

[progmom]

31. no, that's not it at all

it was the timing. it was intentional. we have enough fighting to do with the right wing. do we need to intentionally pick fights among ourselves?

[OldLeftieLawyer]

32. I see

Timing meat is very important. Nothing worse than an overcooked steak or an undercooked veal chop.

Thank you for the clarification.

Timing, they say, is all.

[enigmatic]

39. Hey!

I've missed you; I thought you disowned me!:)

[OldLeftieLawyer]

40. You?

My little brother?

You're in my heart, you're in my soul, you'll be my .........

Oh, sorry. I'm channeling Rod Stewart (and, oddly, Dolly Parton) this morning.

Disowned you?

Ha. Feed that paranoia, baby. I'm here to stay............. <smooooooooch>

[LoZoccolo]

33. That cat in your signature, probably really likes meat.

Matter of fact, probably more than it would like beer. Though one of my dad's cats likes the smell of really dark beer, and you have to keep your bottle with you or else she will start sniffing the top of the bottle and trying to lick it.

[OldLeftieLawyer]

34. My cat dated your dad's cat

They broke up because your dad's cat liked fish better than beef, and my cat's a carnivore.

That's when my cat began drinking..............

[LoZoccolo]

35. Ah yes.

It's OK to eat fish, 'cuz they don't have any feelings.

[progmom]

36. i just have trouble eating cute things

:shrug:

[LoZoccolo]

37. This is an example of a generation gap.

That was Kurt Cobain.

[progmom]
