RIGHT!! Never give up hope!

Well, that's blown, but still I agree. Let's say two-hitter.

The announcer said his dad was trying to video his at-bat this time and I said, "Yeah, like that will happen again." I WAS WRONG!

Thanks! And yes, LSU is a WIN!! I'm calling it now.

My husband just came home with a $30 carton, fairly small (seems smaller than a half-gallon tub) of birthday cake gelato, fresh-scooped from Latte Y Miele...and it is worth every penny! The best valentine's day gift ever! A bit of a splurge, thoughtful, and frankly, it tastes like pure decadence.

Just wanted to share this in case anyone out there was trying to come up with a V-Day gift idea. My husband is no Don Juan, so this really took me aback.

I live here (overpass) and I see sour beer and bad food. People say they have good wings and pizza. Yes?

I love parrains. Martini-do you live in that area?

I don't get the voodoo hate. I like the place better than Sonny's.

Can anyone off the street get them naked?

Are you open Sunday?

I was at Acme Oyster House tonight after the game (LSU/Rice). A table of four at the bar included a guy who looked a bit like Jamarcus Russell but shorter (as in maybe 6') and people kept coming up to him and shaking his hand. Who was it? Anyone know? I asked the tneders and they were mum (which is good on their part, I guess). I just want to know! He left a mega tip (as a "mega" tip).

Correct. Marylanders do not boil crabs.

I am grilling some shrimp. Do I peel them or grill with the shells on?

Went to Dingo's for the first time today. We had the shrimp bong appetizer - good, but maybe not worth the price. It's basically a little glass fish bowl with a marinade in the bottom, complete with spices settled to the bottom, and a half of lemon sitting in the marinade with four skewers protruding from it, each with two grilled shrimp. The flavor was tasty, but the cost, $10, was not really worth it. Wouldn't get it again for that reason (flavor-to-cost-ratio).

I had a burger. I had ordered with cheddar, but no cheddar was on it. That said, there's something that set it apart from other area restaurants (in a good way). It had that lovely char-grilled flavor you get when something's grilled as opposed to fried on a skillet. It was good (think Burger King versus McD's). It was seasoned well, too.

My better half had the fish-and-chips. The fish (we asked the waiter what they use - mahi mahi today) was well-seasoned and had a crispy sear on both sides. Cooked to perfection, really. The fries were wedge-cut and tasted fine.

So, the food was good. A drawback - I initially ordered the turkey, brie, and fig spread sandwich. The waiter said, "The chef wasn't pleased with the brie that arrived this morning, so that's not available." Not sure about the explanation, but glad I wasn't served sub-standard brie, so it was the right thing for them to do. Kudos for that.

The place WAS spotless, like a previous poster said. Also, the flat-screen tv's featured Australian football ("footie") which was a nice, authentic touch.

We'll go back. I'd give it ***1/2 of ***** this first time around, not for reasons regarding food, but just the mix-ups with the ordering (no cheddar, no turkey and brie, etc).
