Appetizer: Name 3 people whom you admire for their intelligence.
The Hanson brothers. Mmmmmbop? Try evil geniuses… bop. Notice how you never see the three of them and Al Zarqawi in the same room? I rest my case. And I like those Trivial Pursuit guys, too.
Soup: What’s the last food you tried that you really didn’t care for.
Tombeno made me try a bite of this ridiculously huge lobster when we were in Montreal. I wanted to be a good sport (he was so excited). I wanted to be open-minded and adventurous. But I ended up retching and gagging as soon as my teeth sank into the minging, fishy mess. What is it about seafood that people love so much? Please explain this to me. If I were frigging shipwrecked, I’d still be wandering around the island looking for a burger or chicken fingers off the children’s menu.
Salad: If you could rename your street, what would it to be called?
Pyeton Place. With less beehives. Okay, you got me. More beehives.
Main Course: When was the last time you were genuinely surprised?
At my inability to write anything funny today. IPA is my kryptonite, apparently.
Dessert: Share a household tip.
Mold always grows on the lower windowsills of my building in the North End. Said sills also happen to be my bedroom. Now… whether this is due to the proximity to street level, or my Dahmeresque disposal methods, is beside the point. Regardless, Clorox bleach kills mold dead.

App: Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, and Janet Reno.
Soup: Food – I would eat a shit sandwich… no I wouldn’t, but maybe an ass of a low flying pigeon.
Rename my street – Melrose Place
Generally surprised – been awhile – unless you count that one time in Jacques.
Old family secret that I have been starting to bring back in my own apartment… Apparently I have a strong must… anyway – charcoal absorbs bad smells. So always have some charcoal out in a tin in every room of the house – be amazed at how well it works. Another tip… never mix amonia and bleach.
Aubs
Not that hungry today:
Main Course: When was the last time you were genuinely surprised?
When I just read that Dave actually tried Lobster.
Dessert: Share a household tip.
Not sure if its really a household tip, but Mom always told me not to play in traffic.

App:
1)Franciscan Friars – I went to Saint Bonaventure and they were everywhere. These guys dedicate their lives to learning and teaching the world. Some of the most intelligent people I have ever met or spoken to are Franciscans.
2) Ted Dibiase – One of the slickest telemarketers in the bizness.
3) Alan Greenspan – The entire world economy revolves around this guy’s decisions.
Soup:
No idea, can’t remember. I’m a little crispy to be honest. I do know one thing, keep eggplant parmesian away from me. Can’t stand the shit
Salad:
This reminds me of the “porn star name game”. Take the name of your first pet and the street name of your first address. My dog’s name was Nikki and street was Thyme Circle. So therefore my porn name is Nikki Thyme…. not bad.
Main Course:
This morning I learned that my commission check will NOT be deposited into my account. Beers ARE NOT on me this weekend.
Dessert:
When boiling shrimp, empty a bottle of dark beer in there. Does wonders to the shrimp… Thats my cooking tip, no household tips today.
Not my best work Dave but I’ve still got 3 hours to add stuff on.

Appetizer:
Too many to name..so I’ll say:
John Forbes Nash Jr.
Ludwig van Beethoven
Thomas Edison
Soup:
I thought I would give blue cheese a second chance..and…well..it won’t be getting a third chance.
Salad:
I wouldn’t. Clearly that’s a government cash grab as everyone on the street would have to pay $75 to get there license address changed. Not to mention the potential fine if you don’t change it.
Main Course:
Daily..at how many things I really don’t know….
Dessert: always shave and do a “number two” before you clean your bathroom because if you don’t you know it will be filthy again within about 2 minutes after you finish cleaning.

Ted Dibiasi… that rat bastard… I wonder if he has any initiatives! I would have to say Doyle that in all honesty – the Mad Bomber was pretty intelligent. Guy would lay a stink that I have never smelled before… Ruin all of the other stalls with his massive Pooh Bombs.
Bdoyle
Monster,
Couldn’t agree more, Mad Bomber was a mad genious that couldn’t be stopped. I give you props Mad Bomber and may you destroy many other toilets in your travels.
Brian Fitzgerald
app: John Crapper, James Naismith and whoever invented Guinness??
soup: Tripe. I just threw up in my mouth
salad: shame on you for making me click on that Pyeton Place link at work and having that awful music play
main course: when i clicked on the Pyeton Place link
