Return and Report: Breaking Bread with the Heathens

Post by _Runtu »

Wade and Scottie and I had lunch at a Mexican restaurant this afternoon. Once we got the formalities over (Wade called us to repentance and we called him a deluded cultist), we had a really good conversation about life, family, religion, whatever. It was a reminder to me that, despite our differences, we have a lot in common and can get along together. I ate too much and probably won't have dinner. :)

I'd tell you all what we all look like, but why spoil the mental image?

The mental image is very very mind blowing. I'm sure no visual representation could do it justice.

Glad you all had a good chat. I'd love to hear from the other combantants, er, participants.

I just thought I would stop by to tell John and Scott what an enjoyable time I had at lunch today. They are good men, and my only regret was the shortness of time and not getting to meet John's wife or Scott's new girfriend. Perhaps we can do this again another day.

Thanks, -Wade Englund-

Scottie's in Utah, too?

Damn! I thought I would never miss that place. Now, some of my favorite people live there.

:(

I'm jealous!

We had a good time. It was nice to finally put a name to a face.

It was really interesting to get the dynamics behind Runtu's family life, his mission, the origins and pronunciation of "Runtu", Wade's business (he's an entrepreneur...who knew??) and how he's planning on innovating his field, and general good conversation.

Thanks for the invite. It makes me really look forward to the big lunch next week!

However, Runtu, next time I'm picking the restaurant. That place was sooo bland!! :)

Blame Wade for that one. He picked it. :)

Never heard of it. I'll have to put it on my 'do not eat there' list.
