I&#8217;m actually more proud of the latter, because halibut is one of those things that&#8217;s never not funny, much like responding to questions with &#8220;your mom&#8221;. Not only is a halibut gigantic, he also has two bulgy eyes on one side of his head. He wasn&#8217;t even born that way; one of them just mosied on around til it got there, and then he could lay down without having one eye in the sand all the time.<\/p>\n<p \/>Halibut. Awesome.<\/p>\n<p \/>Anyway, last night, I accompanied Cindi to Psycho Suzi&#8217;s so she could be on the Food Network. She&#8217;d emailed Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives a while back with a list of suggested locales in Minneapolis, and they contacted her recently to tell her they&#8217;d be <a href='http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/queen_of_subtle\/1366497784\/in\/photostream\/' target='x'>filming at Suzi&#8217;s<\/a>, so she should come hang out. We figured we&#8217;d probably be on the show sitting in a booth enjoying our tiki drinks, but they had other plans: Guy Fieri came and sat with us, and  started by telling her that she was the reason they were there. He interviewed her for a long time, and it was awesome.<\/p>\n<p \/>We had to sign <a href='http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/queen_of_subtle\/1365606119\/' target='x'>releases<\/a> authorizing them to put us on the TV-box, and then Matt arrived and  we hung out and had dinner while watching the rest of the filming. They talked to <a href='http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/queen_of_subtle\/1365606533\/' target='x'>Leslie, the owner<\/a>, and Guy spent a lot of time behind the bar. Also, when we got our tab for $14 (Matt&#8217;s drink and two Schlitz beers&#8230; they were having a relaunch event there, too), we realized that the Food Network had bought us deep-dish and cocktails. SCORE.<\/p>\n<p \/>While the film crew stayed there to drink, we headed across the street to Jaros&#8217;. It was completely empty except for Danny and an odd girl playing the naked lady machine. We spent a few hours there with our greenies and Total Naked Lady Victory. All the top scores belonged to Food Network celebs! Go figure.<\/p>\n<p \/>And today, we had hangovers. The end.<\/p>\n<p \/>Jenni<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today I played the words &#8216;dildo&#8217; and &#8216;halibut&#8217; in Scrabble.
