jamesq | Anybody Want a Peanut?

About once a month, I get together with LA and

thekillerb69 (BB) for lunch. Earlier in the week, I sent out an email to them to see if we were still on for lunch. And I decided to quote Macbeth, just for shits and giggles.

Me

When shall we three meet again?
In thunder, lightning, or in rain?

I was expecting, at best, someone to quote the next line of the play - "When the hurlyburly's done, When the battle's lost and won." - I didn't get that. Instead, I got something much better:

BB

We can gather on the 17th plus three,
Should timing work and we're all free.

LA informs us, in a non-rhyming fashion, that she'll be downtown.

BB

Downtown is good, I have a car.
At U & Me, we'll wreck the bar.
If that doesn't work, I have a plan of attack,
We'll feast like kings at Booker's Clam Shack!

While crabs, not clams are what I savor,
Patio resting is what I favour.
The Bank & Baron is a fine choice I’ve found
Good drink, good food, on the 8th avenue ground.

The food looks good and the prices are right,
shall we meet around noon for our gastric delight?

It was imprecise to say
"Downtown" is my aim
The Beltline is actually where I will be

And downtown at mid-day
The parking's insane
So a Beltline patio seems to be key

Lounge du Laurier
or Avec win acclaim
And Boxwood completes my proposal of three

But wait - why do we debate?
It's BB's day, to choose and pay.

In the end, it was to Blowfish we went.
High end sushi was BB's money well-spent.
Next month I would be quite the prick,
if I made everyone respond via limerick!
