It's really interesting it's mostly just the Friday before too. -- nm - Qale Oct 24, 17:41 14
- interesting how it is Friday. -- nm - loosilu Oct 24, 17:42 13
  - Also interesting is how people are complaining about speciality pizzas going up to 12 dollars when just two years ago they were 16. Economics sucks. -- nm - Qale Oct 24, 17:43 12
    - have you noticed any difference in tips? -- nm - loosilu Oct 24, 17:45 11
      - *tests how long an IM can be* - Qale Oct 24, 17:45 9
        
        Interesting. Very very interesting.... -- nm - The IRS going back over your tax returns Oct 24, 17:47 1
        
        Exactly! Eat me Uncle Sam! -- nm - Qale Oct 24, 17:48
        
        Heh. That's pretty amusing. I haven't graphed it, but perception is down somewhat. -- nm - Qale Oct 24, 17:47
        
        whoa. ok, since I don't have a spreadsheet, how's the mean between 2009 and now? -- nm - loosilu Oct 24, 17:47 5
        
        I'd have to actually go through the data. That's not a real spreadsheet persay. - Qale Oct 24, 17:47 4
        
        if you highlight the column, it will show you the mean in the bottom right. -- nm - loosilu Oct 24, 17:48 3
        
        That doesn't seem the case in MSWorks. -- nm - Qale Oct 24, 17:52 2
        
        ah. -- nm - loosilu Oct 24, 17:52 1
        
        I think the average is $22.50. -- nm - Qale Oct 24, 17:55
      - That's pretty damn personal -- nm - Bacon loves his Ducks Oct 24, 17:45
Quick and easy meal before having to cook a massive dinner. -- nm - Dano Oct 24, 17:40
Nobody wants to cook if they are cooking Thanksgiving dinner the next day. -- nm - Bacon loves his Ducks Oct 24, 17:39 20
- ah, ok. I have never hosted tgiving. -- nm - loosilu Oct 24, 17:41 19
  - I have cooked Thanksgiving the last 4 out of 5 years. - Bacon loves his Ducks Oct 24, 17:42 18
    - I was first invited by my 'desert rat' friends one year when Bill was in K.C. and I know he came with me at least one year after that...so that's at - MojaveMeg Oct 24, 18:08 7
      - One year I was alone might have been right after my divorce and I cooked an entire Thanksgiving for myself. - Bacon loves his Ducks Oct 24, 18:11 6
        
        I'd probaby do that - maybe scale down to just a turkey breast - it's all about the leftovers :) - MojaveMeg Oct 24, 18:15 1
        
        I have had a few Christmas' alone. Very relaxing as well. I always get a live tree and use it for 2 or 3 years - Bacon loves his Ducks Oct 24, 18:19
        
        aw. I have never done it alone. it would be hard. -- nm - loosilu Oct 24, 18:12 3
        
        It's actually pretty nice. Very relaxing. -- nm - Bacon loves his Ducks Oct 24, 18:14 2
        
        maybe one year my holidays won't be owned by someone else. -- nm - loosilu Oct 24, 18:18 1
        
        Come to my house. Thanksgiving dinner with all the trimmings, a warm fire going.... -- nm - Bacon loves his Ducks Oct 24, 18:20
    - Nice. I'd love to start doing this but I don't think it would go over well here. -- nm - kelly Oct 24, 17:54
    - can I come over? -- nm - loosilu Oct 24, 17:43 8
      - Sure -- nm - Bacon loves his Ducks Oct 24, 17:44 4
        
        actually, I'm going to my brother's in Kentucky. He's a damn good cook. -- nm - loosilu Oct 24, 17:47 3
        
        He doesn't do dessert as well as me. -- nm - Bacon loves his Ducks Oct 24, 17:54 2
        
        prove it. -- nm - loosilu Oct 24, 18:00 1
        
        Get your plane ticket -- nm - Bacon loves his Ducks Oct 24, 18:22
      - Oh sure, it sounds like a good idea, but even his cranberry sauce has bacon in it. -- nm - Qale Oct 24, 17:44 2
        
        I'm cool with that. I'll even bring beer. -- nm - loosilu Oct 24, 17:44 1
        
        With bacon. -- nm - Qale Oct 24, 17:48
