Well we got a sitter. If you haven't noticed I am bnkrazy's wife on here.
(not many posts yet) Our kids go to bed 7 and that is the main reason we got someone to watch them. Our son would have a melt down if he didn't get in bed on time. Trust me no one wants to see that. :what:

You can always OC the little ones.
I do understand the desire to have an evening out unincumbered though.

Good food and great company. Conversation range covered Pennsylvania happenings, Norfolk and Danibus, first hand Iraqi experiences, newly acquired wheel guns, quarter pitching and other topics of mutual interest.
Look forward to the next dinner all ready. :exclaim:

Got there a bit late, but they were on top of things and the food was out almost a quick as those that were there earlier. Had a great time, as did Dragonmom.
First time we'd been there andwe've now added Zorba's to our roatation. Food was great and you did not leave hungry.
Looking forward to the next one.

For a while there after dinner it was thought that Dale had gone over to the Dark Side. We never did figure out what he was doing trying to get into some strange person's vehicle in the parking lot. Heard a lot about "puppies" and "candy" but never saw him get any.
Steve (PA Carry) said he will be seeing Mtn JACK this coming Saturday, and will be giving him the large GUNS SAVE LIVES button he was supposed tro have delivered in time for Mtn JACK's preliminary hearing. Better late than never. (Relax, Steve, I'm just yanking your chain.)
For anyone that missed it, our waitress, Brandy, provided us with two (2) wonderful OC moments. First, when we came in she asked why everybody was wearing guns. Lee responded by asking her why she wore a seatbelt & she said "for safety." Lee told her that's the same reasaon we carry. She responded by saying "OK" and never seemed to be bothered by our guns. It was just curiosity that got answered. BTW - good job fielding the query, Lee.
The second moment was while Brandy was collecting the tabs after dinner. She was given a GUNS SAVE LIVES button and she got into a short conversation with Dale & Steve about wanting to get a gun but not right now. Both Dale & Steve encouraged her to consider why "now" was a good reason for her to get a gun and she made a face that seemed to say "I will think about what you said."
We got a few looks, and according to Joe one near-decapitation by swivel-necking while we were standing outside after dinner. Which reminds me - did anyone notice the lady in the first booth as we came in to be seated? I hope we did not scare her, but she sure was eying all the hardware that was passing at about eye-level. :what:
Start thinking about where we will ave dinner next month.
stay safe.

I never saw any puppies or candy, only .357 magnum 'big boy' guns and lively conversation on a number of suitable after dinner topics for adults.
Perhaps the after dinner confab was more interesting this time on the Dark Side........
