Good peoples.

Melba and I went on a blind double-date for lunch today, and had a damn good time. I've known Newt and her Hubster for awhile through reading Newt's blog, but we recently emailed back and forth about favorite local restaurants and I got the idea of the four of us meeting for lunch. I wasn't sure she'd go for the idea, since I could very easily have shown up in a white panel van wielding an ax. You just never know.

We met up at the 5-8 Club, which is known for a burger called the Juicy Lucy. Of course, all four of us ordered one up. Mine was solid, a definite homecooked vibe to the burger, and the onion rings were excellent. Even better, I always like an onion ring that doesn't divulge it's entire onion on the first bite. The only downside to the meal was the french fries - they were just... ehh. Go for the 'rings.

The moral of this story: meeting people from Teh Internets is cool. No white vans.
