My 2 favorite stores are right next to each other now: Guestroom Records and Forward Foods.

We had couscous for dinner with a side of fresh french bread with dry cheddar melted on it. Who would have thought this would be available to us hillbillies?

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to eat some of my fresh feta for dessert.

They had a big article on them in either the Transcript or Oklahoman a few weeks ago. It looks interesting. I'm going by there now.

Well, not now. They're closed. Maybe tomorrow.

You forgot to mention the part about the part about 1 of the guys owning it being a total d-bag. I don't doubt that the store has some great stuff in it.
But I for one will never buy **** from those guys and I would hope that you all would not either.

A) You can proably find whatever you are looking for cheaper on the net.
B) Don't ever play in a poker games with these little bitches.:mad:

dolemite, are you sure you aren't Michael from The Office when Toby takes all his money from him at Casino Night?


Dealer: Okay, the game is no-limit Texas Hold 'Em. Good luck, everybody.

Dealer: (to Michael) That's at least four red chips to you, sir.

Michael: All in.

Carol: Oh!

(Everybody folds)

Michael: (VO) Bluffing is a key part of poker. Which is too bad because I am not very good at bluffing. Did you believe me?

Toby: I'll call.

Michael: What are- That's insane.

Toby: I have good cards.

Michael: Well, Toby, I went all in on the first hand. So doesn't that tell you that I might have good cards too? So, don't be stupid. Just take it back.

Dealer: I'm sorry. He can't, sir. He's gone all in.

Michael: Okay, all right, whatever.

Dealer: Flip 'em.

Michael: You really scr-, you really screwed that up.

Oscar: Way to go Toby.

Meredith: Wow.

Toby: (VO) I don't really play cards...but I'm not gonna lie to you. It felt really good to take money from Michael. Gonna chase that feeling.

It had nothing to do with that fool beating me. He can't hold a candle to my poker knowledge.

He was the whinny little bitch when I took his brothers birthday money:mad:
