Last night we tried a new restaurant, T-Bones Grill House (formerly The Grill House Restaurant and Buddha Lounge), which was pretty good. The decor was a good effort, but not quite right; the food was good enough that we’d go again (except for the dessert); but the service–the service was GREAT!
Great, and here’s why: [...]
This is a name which comes up just about every time we talk about baby names.

Just think about it for a minute. You’ll get it.
And if you don’t… well… it’s probably better that way.
I’ve been doing a pretty good job over the past couple of years keeping my weight under control. I tub out a bit, slim back down, repeat.
