Lunch?

[RecycleMichael]

The pepper spray was the perfect spice for my Stromboli.

I thought the pizza that you guys split looked great. I am going back and getting one of those soon.

Thanks again for the Ipods you handed out.

Just glad we got in the fight afterwards.

I have thought about it, but have never attended any of the TulsaNow lunches or get-togethers.

Do most of you regular posters here know each other personally?  I have only met and know the true identity of 1-2 people on the TulsaNow forums.  In hindsight, do you wish you remained anonymous on this forum, or has there been benefits to you in knowing the identities of some posters?  Just curious here.

Most of us don't know each other, but many of them know me (I can be seen from a distance).

Today was the first time I met a couple of posters and half our crowd was first-time lunchers.

[Lister]

Did someone actually give out free Ipods? Man, I've gotta get in on one of these!

[Wilbur]

I was okay with most of the disturbance that started until the food started getting spread on the walls and each other, then I was forced to take some kind of action.  I really didn't think people took too many of these posts personally.  Wow!  What a fight!

Sorry about the amount of pepper spray, but I think my pepper spray button got stuck and it nearly emptied the entire canister.  I thought the fire department responded rather quickly and got their fans set up to get the restaurant aired out quickly.  I think most of the other customers were rather amused by most of the "show", but I don't anticipate the group being asked to come back.

Next time I see a lunch set up I'll remember to bring more cuffs.

And were those pink bikes brought on purpose to blend into some of our current event discussions?  That was a nice touch, even if it did lead to disaster.

Some rather embarrasing photos of me appeared in the National Enquirer after our lunch last Oct. at Webers.  I attribute that to Mspivey's pole cam.

Who would have thought someone with ten cheese burgers crammed in their mouth, riding a unicycle, in a Speedo would have EVER attracted any attention?

[AngieB]

I was completely embarrassed by all of you! That's my 'hood, y'know!! I don't know how I'll be able to show my face in there again. Guess it's to-go pizzas from now on. [B)]

Glad I got out of there when I did. Of course, speeding away wasn't a great idea with Wilbur right there.

A complete disaster. Well, except for the iPods. I don't know how I'll ever fill 80 gigs!

[Conan71]

Remind me to NEVER ask Wilbur to pass the pepper EVER again. []

Are these lunch functions like an AA meeting?  Do you all wear name tags with your screen name only on them, no last names allowed, concealing your true identity?!?

[Conan71]

I always wear one of those professional wrestling "Mr. X" masks to the lunches.  Recycle Michael wears pantyhose over his face to conceal his identity.  It's gotten the cops called more than once.

Everyone generally lists both, but I guess you can just say "call me steve."

The first time anyone "from the forum" got together (which was a dinner at mexicali about two years ago) We had rexbrown, MichaelC, recyclemichael, myself and a handful of others. Pretty much no-one knew each other.

We generally find that we know each other through other connections.

Didn't we already pick next month's lunch location?

After this last one, the D.L. Moss might be an option...
