Colossal onions of excellence!!

UPDATES posted Friday night 9/14 at 8:02 p.m. (see below and under "scary fashion trends"
Aside from the new Chili's in town, the "Blue Top" restaurant reopened. Here are some highlights from the local newspaper:
  • The new "Cabana Bar and Sports Lounge" section of the restaurant has been renovated as an "upscale tiki bar done in rain forest bamboo" featuring eight large flat-screen TVs (we don't have enough of those in the local bars)
  • "The sports bar will have NFL Ticket so people can watch a full slate of professional football games on Sunday." (yeah, we NEED MORE FOOTBALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Especially 8 games showing at once).
  • The bar will also feature an Internet jukebox "...that will stay current with the latest trends in music," and an ATM and gaming machines.
  • The "fine dining" facility has been "...renovated in a Las Vegas lounge-type style. It includes Rat Pack icons like Frank Sinatra on the windows. We might call the fine dining facililty the 'Sinatra Room,' said the new owner. "
  • The menu will include "Frank Sinatra's Veal Cutlets Milanese (supposedly a favorite of Sinatra's according to the new owner). The menu will also feature "famous broasted chicken and ocean cod fish fries (Fridays only)."

Man, I can't WAIT to check this place out!!!!!!!!! Who's game????

Chili’s comes to town!!
We just got a “new” Chili’s in town. The people in Chicago are cracking up over it ‘cause like Chili’s has been around since the 80s (possibly even the 70s). It is the home, as we all know, of the awesome “AWESOME BLOSSOM® - We bring together our hand-battered and seasoned, fried colossal onion and our famous seasoned sauce for an awesome treat! $7.49.” And it’s even a registered trademark! Chili’s is also home to the El Nino Caribbean rum punch spectacular drink and the new “Crispy Honey Chipotle Chicken Crispers.” That’s a mouthful! Interestingly, all the photos in their corporate menu binder look like porn shots. Every food and drink item is splashing, spilling, or dripping into someone’s mouth. Pretty kinky if you ask me. The binder menu also weighs about 40 pounds.

Annoying administrator speak: Part II
EXCELLENCE: student excellence, teaching excellence, the center for excellence, staff excellence, prize for excellence, supporting excellence… Blah!!! Boo to excellence!!! Watered down mushy icky meaningless yucko word that is WAY overused in higher education. If everyone in the world would strive for excellence, no one would ever be happy because it’s impossible to achieve – ‘cause like most of us are not above average given the very nature of the term. Whatever. Blah again!!!! I say no to excellence.

You are so funny. I'm disturbed and delighted by the cock ring question because what the fuck is that? I also want to go to this new place you're talking about with Las Vegas style entertainment or whatever the hell that was. Wow. Stevens Point is a whore.

Do you think your Bloody Mary craving and your PMS are related?
Oh, and also, I haven't been to a Chili's since I lived someplace with a Chili's. Next time Tortuga and I come down, let's eat there!

Yeah, let's TOTALLY go to the Las Vegas place (it's called the Blue Top). Good luck finding anything vegetarian, unless there's some Sinatra vegetarian dish we are unaware of.

Yeah, how bout it. FUCK EXCELLENCE! If I hear that one more time I'm going to hurl.

Chili's! We're on it. You bring that cute tortuga with you. I may have to nudge Granny into this being my new GC place (and not Applebees since I still have like $500 of those things).

Yes!!!! I need Tiki Time!!! Although I still shed bitter tears over the loss of the old taxedermy. The old Blue Top was second to none in dead stuffed animals. -N

Can we fuck excellence in the newspaper industry, too? If I have to attend one more "STAR rally" I will simply puke. It's just not right... We fuck up all the time... encouraging us to pursue excellence!!! will not help.

And what is tuck pointing?

A and I went to the BLUE TOP first thing when we came into town. "Look" I said to her as she lounged in the back of our teal and gray behemoth van, "that ought to be our spot." After five minutes in that place a woman was yelling across the bar to her new friend about her recent eviction, her shitty boss, and her need for more BEER.

We love the Blue Top. The changes will utterly ruin the ambiance.

P-lo
