I agree wholeheartedly

... with this story. This dude Swansburg is my kind of curmudgeon.

Let's take it a step further, though. Let's outlaw all restaurant outings among groups of ten people or more who are unrelated, except under the following circumstances:

  • The dinner is held at a restaurant that utilizes paper napkins; and/or
  • said restaurant sells beer in cans; and/or
  • said restaurant has a jukebox; and/or
  • a mechanical bull; and/or
  • something other than a fork or chopsticks is used to eat food (i.e.; hands, wooden mallets, shovels).

As a corollary, by the way: If you know of a restaurant that features all of those amenities, you should never go there in a group of less than 10.

C'mon, congressional Democrats -- let's making banning awkward and expensive dinners part of the "Nine for '09 Agenda."

Shocker. This is a woman who made you split the lawn care bill with her, on top of paying rent.
