    Monday of Restaurant Week we lunched at WATER & WALL in Clarendon. The name comes from their iconic former location at the corner of Water St. and Wall St. in NYC. The ambiance was industrial chic with a modern menu.
    STARTERS:
    Arugula Salad | strawberry | candied walnuts | chèvre | balsamic
    Red & Green Tomato Gazpacho | fried capers |…[Read more]

    Are we still active here? I’d like to know how to delete posts from a forum; specifically the NFL POOL forum in the BREAK ROOM GROUP. Yes, I’m an admin. I’m starting the new season and all the posts about last season need to go. I don’t see a way to this… Many thanks!

    Well, congrats go out to Bill and Colin for picking both winning teams correctly and coming closest to the total score. Since you picked the same score, you both get a bonus point!

    Before I do the rundown, I will tell everyone that Colin is now UNCATCHABLE and has won the travel mug! Congrats, Colin! You join the exalted ranks of our past…[Read more]

    Just finished Dean Koontz’s SAINT ODD, the finale of the Odd Thomas books. For those that haven’t read them… they are a typical Koontz mix of science fiction, action, horror, and romance. Koontz is a tough call to categorize. This story has all his trademarks and is a good read, but it is for fans who have followed the series, definitely not a…[Read more]

    Well, finally! Ed is the winner of this week’s pool by picking all four teams correctly! Not only that, but I had 44 points as well! Should have bought a lottery ticket, I was on a roll!

    Reading BLUE LABYRINTH by Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child. After a divergence into high adventure in the last three novels, a trilogy, they return their hero, the enigmatic Agent Pendergast, to the Natural History Museum in New York and bring back some old familiar characters to flesh out what starts out as a murder mystery. Should make a great…[Read more]

    Finally got around to working with the new software here… Just read Robert McCammon’s I TRAVEL BY NIGHT. Do you remember the old TV western HAVE GUN WILL TRAVEL? Palladin, a gunslinger for hire works out of a San Francisco hotel and fixes problems for a living. Has a calling card with the iconic “Have gun, will travel.” on it. Well, this book…[Read more]

    Colin wins by the tiebreak becoming our third double week winner! Congrats, Colin!

    A crappy week for most of us though. No one picked Houston over Cleveland or St. Louis over Denver. Only Jeff got Tampa Bay over Washington (Way to go, Jeff!) and Eddie, Colin, Greg, and Jeff called Cincy over N’awlins. Way to go, guys!
