I had to call Olentzero on the telephone but he finally responded and promised to get his butt to lunch again. What about you, Cliffy? So we have 4 fur shurs and 2 maybes. Anyone else?
The gasp telephone?!!? That was brave and noble dc, we are pleased that you have fetched the long absent Olentzero. We’ve got 2 hours to go, can we get a quick snoutcount again?? (I wanna drag people to La Cocina, because I had a hot eggplant sammich there yesterday which was about as close to an orgasm as an eggplant can get, and I WANT to drag people there. If we don’t have a proper count then it will turn into a debacle, and nobody likes those, no matter how good the eggplant is and I already feel respondsible for enough of those. Debacles, not eggplants, I don’t generally fuss with the production end of eggplants…not that you can necessarily tell which end of an eggplant cares about production…Oh dear lord…I read too much Rue…
and on that note, see you noonish dopers!
I like both debacles and eggplant, but that’s just me. An eggplant debacle sounds right up my alley. In any case, I’m still planning on being there, since it’s better than being at work.
Can’t make it – sorry. But (despite my long absence from the thread) I’m still interested as a general rule.

An eggplant up your alley sounds a mite uncomfortable, but suit yourself! I can’t swear they’ll have any eggplant today, which is sad, but I got some sort of “daily special” that had an eggplant, and while I can’t imagine them denying you eggplant it might not be the same exact eggplant that I had. (The divine kind.) And if you think about it, you probably don’t really WANT the exact same eggplant. Not that the eggplant would likely go bad in 24 hours, but the cheese would certainly be hard and nasty. That’s what you’d get if you got the same one. I think a similar one would be nice though…
So is anyone on for tomorrow? Yes? No? Maybe? Somebody should write a bot that posts to this thread once every other week to lessen the burden on our forgetful selves.
Yeah, I’m in.
I’m in!

I’ll be winging my way to New England to help Lucretia celebrate her commissioning.
Ack! Is that happening already? I guess it is the 25th… darn it. I couldn’t have made it anyway, but still…
Well, a little under two hours to go boys and girls, how about a headcount? dcnewsman, panache?
Although it deeply, deeply saddens me I believe I’ll have to miss this. Sorry kids, enjoy the sammiches!!!
Yeah, sure, as soon as I start to show up again you bail. I see how it is. 
Count me in. See you in about 30 min.
DAMMIT!
Next time, someone email me… please!
Yo, what’s the deal? We miss a week or something?
I think we were to lunch today, but as it is now 12:10 p.m., a bit late. Anyhow, we’ll plan for again in 2 weeks.
Short notice, but anyone up for lunch today?
I’ve got a conference call, sorry. Darnit!
I guess we missed another week. Panache, you are in charge of posting a reminder on Mondays from now on. :smack:
Yipes, it’s of course 12:07 and NOW I see this…me? Reminder…wha!!! I’m one of the worst among us for keeping track of days 'n weeks 'n things. You think just because I do this sort of thing semi-professionaly that I should be GOOD at it? Muhahaha…I have clearly snookered, hoodwinked and generally pulled the wool over your eyes!
I will start though…reminders that is…I didn’t realize this was even a week for Bunching. Doh!
