So Either

A. Jeeberd has a name tag that says "Jeeberd"

or

B. Cap Ologist is a stalker :)


or

C. Jeebs has TEXT tattooed on the knuckles of one hand, and SIMS on the knuckles of the other, ala Cape Fear.

:D

The man ate a ton of salad, more than just about anyone I've seen there. He changed his order three times on me (after the order had been sent to the kitchen), and sucked down his water like there was no tomorrow. He seemed like a nice guy, and his wife was very friendly. Hmm, nothing else very exciting to report about this...


Is his wife hot?

Cap Ologist 04-28-2005 12:15 AM

I had just finished reading the sov/suicane party thread right before we left and Jeeber was in it.



And he doesn't have text sims tattoed on his hand, he has a tattoo that says dola post though!

Cowpies :mad:

JeeberD 04-28-2005 08:31 AM

So did you request my section, Cap, or did you just happen to get sat there?

So your wife doesn't know about the wonderful world of FOFC, eh? Man, the first thing I told my girlfriend when I got home from work was that I waited on one of the guys from the board... ;)

Oh, and by the way, Cap, nice catch...

So the weird thing is I was about 90% certain I was going to go to the Olive Garden last night but changed my mind and went to Bufallo Wild Wings instead. How weird would that have been, 3 of us in one place at the same time.

JeeberD 04-28-2005 11:11 AM

Wacky...

We really need to have a DFW FOFC get together some time. BBQ, beer, poker, and text sims...talk about a party!

JeeberD 04-28-2005 11:11 AM

Dola-

How was BWW? Any good?

Not really. The service is pretty crappy, even for someone as tolerant as me. They have good happy hour discounts but I don't eat the food there. The big plus is they have TV's there. Lots and Lots of TV's.

JeeberD 04-28-2005 11:20 AM

Have you tried TJ Hartford's yet? Talk about television! I don't think you could avoid watching one even if you tried. They even have the cute little ones mounted over the urinals...

Plus they have some decent drink specials on weeknights.

No, where is that? BTW. The TV part was pointing out the fact the OG doesn't have a tv.

JeeberD 04-28-2005 11:51 AM

It's over by Hooters and On the Border...on the access road a mile or two north of 35 from the OG.

Trust me, I wish we had a TV. Apparently there used to be one in the bar years and years ago, but now corporate doesn't want them in there. Bastards...

That’s really stupid. I would go eat there a lot more if I could watch a game. I understand they aren’t going for the “bar” crowd, but I think they are probably loosing a lot of business by people going elsewhere.

Given how packed our local Olive Garden is, I doubt it.

I'd try to make it up for that. I'd also open up my place for a party, but I'm not sure how many would make the drive down to Austin. I have plenty of space to put people, if they don't mind air mattresses and/or Aero Beds. :)

I guess television isn't part of the "Genuine Italian Dining Experience". Gag...


Party at cartman's place! :)

I'm in. I'll bring the cards!

GoldenEagle 04-28-2005 02:05 PM

So is Cap Ologist a good tipper? :)

cartman 04-28-2005 02:09 PM

Woot!

I'm serious about this. If we get enough interest, we can plan on a party sometime this summer. I've got a big ole BBQ pit, and the Salt Lick BBQ is only a couple of miles away. I've got two spare bedrooms, plus tons of floor space, and a huge yard for tents. There's all sorts of stuff on site, tubing on the Guadalupe is close by, there are several vineyards in the area, lots of stuff to keep people occupied.

Lathum 04-28-2005 02:20 PM

I'm down as long as I am in town

Yes, he left a very nice tip... :)

JeeberD 04-28-2005 02:55 PM

Dola-

Heck yeah, cartman. The girlfriend brought up tubing on the 'Lupe this summer just last week...

Lathum 04-28-2005 03:01 PM

Can I bring a date?

Cap Ologist 04-28-2005 05:27 PM

They just randomly seated us there. The wife knows about FOFC, but she still doesn't quite understand why a bunch of random people talk about everything over the internet. She always gets this bemused look on her face whenever I mention something going on at FOFC. And she still thinks I'm weird for watching the NFL draft, so I thought I'd pass on telling her that I kind of know our waiter but not really.

I think it was when you said

"Would you like salad with your lasagne?"
"Dola, you can also have soup."

Draft Dodger 04-28-2005 11:45 PM

so, was jeeber a good waiter? and did Cap leave a good tip?

Well, I came to work in a good mood, so hopefully I wasn't too much of a jerk. Also, Cap's cute wife helped keep my attention on the table... ;)

Golden.

Taco 04-29-2005 07:47 AM

Jeebs, are there any unique spices that Olive Garden uses? I've eaten there twice and had two allergic reactions to the food...never happened to me anywhere else. I'd like to know what causes it.

JeeberD 04-29-2005 09:12 AM

Not as far as I know, Taco...

Ragone 04-29-2005 09:15 AM

i imagine its either the pesto.. or something in the tomato sauce (probably some kind of preservitive)

JeeberD 04-29-2005 09:25 AM

Well, we use pesto in only one dish. As for the tomato sauce, I have no clue...

JeeberD 09-29-2008 11:41 PM

Not a football player today, but freakin' Thomas Haden Church came in to the Denton OG today. I was playing manager today, and I was walking out of the dining room towards the lobby when I saw this guy dressed in a cowboy hat, cowboy boots, a plaid shirt, and shoulder length hair walking towards me. I thought to myself, "Man, that guy looks like Lowell Mather." And the closer he got, the more I thought that he really did. And then I heard the voice, and I was convinced...

I've known for a while now that he's a Texas boy, but I had no idea he was from this area. Apparently his parents are from the area, and are regulars at the OG (one of the servers always waits on them, but had no idea who their son is).

Good times...

JeeberD 09-30-2008 12:52 AM

Argh...fookin' archives.

Lathum 09-30-2008 01:05 AM

did he drink Merlot?

DaddyTorgo 09-30-2008 01:07 AM

hahah that's awesome jeebs

JeeberD 09-30-2008 01:13 AM

You know, I never actually went by his table. He asked to be sat somewhere kind of out of the way (and I can't blame him), so the host put him in a closed section...and someone VERY quickly volunteered to pick him up. So I have no idea what he ate/drank, though a glass of Ecco Merlot would have been very appropriate...

Did he pick up a big, fat waitress and go home with her?
