Let's just say that the Xmas Tree didn't fly straight and true. No human damage and no farm damage.

That's pretty much what I expected. I hope there's video somewhere.

What was the special at the Thistle Pig?

We asked all videos be erased; so that means there will be plenty of them around.

At the Thistle Pig, every dish is special. There was a Portuguese chowder that was reported to get better as you ate deeper into the bowl (Boris, Guy, Liz), beer battered chicken app (Jim & Liz shared with others), roasted chicken dish (Guy), Moroccan spiced pollack (me), pork shoulder w/o Buffalo sauce (Jim) and the lobster mac-n-cheese (Boris). Jim & Liz and Boris split a chocolate stout cake and Guy and I had our own servings of Needhams made to the recipe of the grandmother of one of the owners. A very Maine dessert item that was quite delicious.

Now, don't you wish you were there?

Ordinarily I'd say yes but I was here . I would have taken a picture of the nachos but the loud music, lights and pyro were very distracting.

Yes, nachos are very Trans-Siberian. I hope you showed Debbie a good time on her birthday.

About as Trans Siberian as the Orchestra. I think this is the 12th time we've seen them. It was loud (we had really good seats) and my instruction to my daughter to get me some chips and cheese got turned into a vat of nachos. I ate them all.

I hope you showed Debbie a good time on her birthday.

Her birthday is actually Monday. Being the big spender that I am, I'm taking her to a restaurant that gives you your meal for half price on your birthday. Not Joes, we ate there today and I got half her dessert.
