Weekly Cartel Update - July 7

I am ashamed - for two reasons. First that it has taken so long to get the Cartel Update posted and second, I forgot to get the name of the new girl at Wild Wing, shown here on the right next to Jenny and Ali. D brought this week's Salt & Pepper set - hard to see but it is a couch potato Salt Shaker with a TV Pepper Shaker. Nice!

Friday the Cartel met early in anticipation of a long lineup for the movie, Pirates of the Caribbean. Since we had not met for almost a month a lot of business had to be attended to - the most interesting being why women of age 40+ find it difficult if not impossible to live alone. The conversation went something like;


HBB: "I don't understand why men who live alone are generally happy with the arrangement yet women between the ages of 40 and 60 are not happy living by themselves and in fact seem almost desperate to find someone to live with."

D: "Because we (females) are the nurturer, we are kind, caring, considerate, we like to take care of someone, like to cook for them, like to see them happy."

Dr. DC: "Yet you never thank us for allowing you to do that."

Best line of the night! Well done Dr. DC.

As I mentioned previously, we were then off to see Pirates of the Caribbean. What can I say - obviously the best movie of the summer season.
