Really? That gives me an idea. A Smooffee with chocolate and toasted marshmallow, and graham cracker bits mixed in. A "S'more-fee."

I'll try that next time I'm in.

oh Lordy, I'm so there now... single or not.. that sounds wonderful... what happens if we sneak Kahlua in? I kid, I kid.. but I love a Kahlua and Coffee with Whipped Cream and chocolate sprinkles.

I'm really starting to like Iced Coffees with all this hot weather though. I need to come in.. I'm really close.. I drive by everyday.

ROFL...this thread is cracking me up. Loving the "hirls"...I used to be one of those. Never really liked patchouli though so I was kicked out of the merry band of hirls.

I may need to attend one of these apparently very small gatherings. The promise of chocolate sprinkles did it for me.

you keep saying you are going to try it, why not today?

I'm here until noon, and while I don't have chocolate jimmies, I can sprinkle some oreo on top of the whipped cream....

Unfortunately, no. I wanted to, but we went to see "Wall-E" last night, and it was too late by the time it was over.

We've only been doing it a couple of weeks. We haven't had a big enough turn out (YET) to do any demographics.

But the more single people who know about it, the better.

The movie was great. Very funny, not the "Short Circuit" ripoff that the trailers seemed to hint at, nothing too scary. A couple of tender moments, but no "tear-jerkers."

Also, I'm in the shop right now trying my above-mentioned "S'more-fee" idea. It's GOOOD.

I always thought hirls were High Intensity Runway Lights.

Man, am I behind the times.

Wink Re: Singles Night?

I think I may be able to make it some Saturday night, if I'm not called into work. That happens a lot.

You have to admit, you're not putting much shine on the sell.

yeah, I guess I'm not. But I refuse to mislead anyone.

We are committed to holding this event on Saturday nights, and we are hoping for some decent word of mouth to get us kicked off.

I hear my single friends complain about wanting a place that isn't smoky or sleazy, so that is what we are providing.

okay, regarding the 'sell' ... I think it's scary and awkward sometimes to attend a gathering with these preconceived notions ... I'm thinking maybe change the night from Singles Night to a more user friendly gathering ... no labels... you have to admit, it is daunting to place all these expectations on a particular group ( singles, looking for love etc) ..

How about a fun 'Come as you are 'Game or RockBand' night' maybe?
