Weekly Cartel Update - Apr. 8
At long last, due to the combination of illness and travel plans of our female members, the original male members of the cartel were finally able to get in some uninterrupted, quality Menschkeit time. Our discussions mainly centered around women and their affect upon mankind (both positive and negative) and by the end of our evening at Wild Wing we had solved most of the world's problems.
Given that Easter is upon us it seemed only fitting to present the staff with a Bunny and Egg Salt & Pepper set this week. Pictured here is Crystal who was a trooper and agreed to have her picture taken even though she was suffering from a cold and, in her words, didn't look her best. Our thanks go to Crystal for keeping the tradition alive.
Also adding to our dining pleasure was our favourite Charlene, pictured here with Suji one of the owners of Wild Wing.
It was Charlene who provided the Cartel with some insider information about the menu at Wild Wing. She informed us that Wild Wing was going to expand their menu next week to include a selection of wraps, apparently in response to the demands of women who are concerned about their carb intake. I suppose this is the price we must pay for progress but really - if you are concerned about your carbs get your butt to some salad joint or stay home! Why interfere with the business of men?
Our original plan for the evening had been to go see the movie Lucky Number Slevin but our plans had to be altered with the arrival of a beer "on the house" courtesy of our esteemed host, Suji. What could we do? One does not refuse a beer - especially during Menschkeit time.
Several beers (and carb loaded fries with gravy) later we finally left Wild Wing in search of a movie. Given that our selection of a movie was based entirely upon what was playing when we got to the theatre, it was not surprising to find ourselves watching a crappy remake of a Wes Craven movie entitled, The Hills Have Eyes. My recommendation - don't even rent the DVD if and when it comes out. But it could have been worse I suppose, if we had gotten to the theatre 10 minutes later we would have been forced to choose Brokeback Mountain!
