(uh Kal, do you need glasses and do you need them when riding...ie. do you wear them....

Lunch.... what's that?

Actually...eat at desk (almost always stuff from home...sandwich or microwavable leftovers, frozen things) and either work (if there's a lot of paper to grind through and the food isn't messy) or read the newspaper (otherwise I'd never get to) or go on the computer (depends on the above). Also tend not to go for a walk for a break because my office is connected to a shopping centre with lots of retail stores which makes for spending temptations.

I myself have a bit of dyslexia and misread things that seem TOO funny to be so (in context) that I go back and get it straight. But no one ever thinks it's as funny as I do!

Actually a few strip bars down here have commercials all over the radio talking about their lunch specials - wings, burgers. I always thought how weird to be slobbering wings while looking at strippers...but I guess that is something MEN can finesse....

What's weird about eating wings while looking at strippers?

Only thing bad about that is you might forget about the wings. Then you go hungry the rest of the day and try to bum food off everyone else and scrounge for dimes and quarters for the vending machines but you can't find any cause your buddy did the same thing.

Combination of extreme tiredness and wishful thinking I think...

I'm stuck thinking how greasy your fingers would get...

I usually eat a full lunch, especially when the wife's not around (She travels alot for work) - Basically cuz I don't feel like cooking dinner for myself at home.

I grab lunch in a military chow hall ($3.50 for your choice of a full hot meal, or a subway-style deli sandwich made fresh for you, or a meal from the grill - burgers and fries.) Whatever you decide, drinks, salad bar and dessert are included. I usually go for the hot meal.

When I get lazy for dinner, i just run by one of the billion pizza places on the way home. They mostly all still use wood fired pizza ovens, so you can watch them make the pizza - it only takes about 5 minutes from the time they start tossing the dough ball until it comes out of the oven all warm and bubbly. mmmmmmmmmmmm Pizza typically costs about $5, depending on the toppings. One of the most popular toppings for pizza (Kids love it!) is what they call "Pizza Americana" - It's a pizza with hot dog pieces and french fries on it. I would have to say, though, my favorite pizza is one with cream cheese, mozzerella, corn and after they finish cooking it, they dump a bunch of arugula on it. Tasty!

I have warmed up "whatever you cooked last night." Or some soup.

What the?....none of that is pizza. American Pizza is pepperoni pizza. Pig products do not belong on a pizza, except maybe italian sausage. Corn? Yeesh! Thats worse than that ridiculous Hawaiian pizza. Next we'll be putting apple slices and cherries and pancakes on our pizzas. What is this country coming to.

And while I'm at it, if any pizza makers are listening, stop making square pizzas. Pizzas are round.
