Post #61 - August 4th, 2009, 8:37 pmI'm happy the start-time has been moved up, since I have plans on the evening of the 22nd. Now that you're starting at 1 pm, I (and my progeny) may join in for a few of the early stops, if that's ok.
Thanks,

Burt,
For now, best to put us in the 'tentative' category, but I'm optimistic about being able to attend.

It's a probable. This far out yet, I can't guarantee something won't screw up my plans."Your swimming suit matches your eyes, you hold your nose before diving, loving you has made me bananas!"

Can't wait to see and meet each of you, and then get down to some serious burrito tasting!! Dare I say, should we think about scorecards? And if so, what would be the criteria? Just a thought...
Have a great weekend!

When I did my Taco-A-Thon I did have score cards (with about 5 categories and scoring 1 to 5) and I just sort of winged it. I am sure the criteria for the burritos will be a bit different.
What ever you would like to see compared. We are a flexible group.
You have a great weekend as well! Stay cool..."Very good... but not my favorite." ~ Johnny Depp as Roux the Gypsy in Chocolat

Post #75 - August 8th, 2009, 2:59 pmI'm not at a phone at the moment so i can't call. But i'm pretty sure that Leon, (Tierra Caliente, but I still call it "leon") is not open past 7:30, hopefully they've changed their hours though, that would be great. If someone doesn't beat me to it i'll give them a call this evening to see.Part of the secret of a success in life is to eat what you like and let the food fight it out inside.

never hurts to be thorough, and I can respect your interest in wanting more than a simple thumbs up or thumbs down.

I agree. It's just not reflective of how my brain works!

Guys don't sweat it! It was just a twist on something I already had going for another purpose, clearly it's not gonna be right for everyone.
Jim! Wow two butts, two weekends in a row right?? I'm impressed! Sounds great, cant wait to see the pictures.
Today being our 23rd anniversary, my wife & are I debating on whether getting some choice bone in rib-eye steaks at Sam's club or Garden fresh sound good, or if just taking it easy and ordering Chinese to-go would be best. Aah decisions, decisions. Either way, that nice bottle of 2001 Bordeaux that I saved for today is gonna be wonderful...

Post #87 - August 17th, 2009, 10:58 amReally looking forward to what should be one of my favorite events this summer. I will be heading down early to perhapas stop @ Hot Dougs, but definitely stopping @ LTH member Danny's bar Toons for a few boilermakers before I head to meet up with others. Toons opens @ 11:00
