@achewood I once had the idea that, if only for a moment each night, everyone in the world was asleep at the same time. It made the world manageable.

My dinner with Onstad.

Okay, so Golfhaus postulated over in this thread that none of us would turn down a dinner with Onstad.  I don't know if that's true or not, but if you were to have a dinner with Onstad, what would the meal be?

Is he doing the cooking, or are we?

Despite having watched at least four episodes of Iron Chef a week for the past three months, I do not consider myself much of a culinary expert. If he were making the dinner, I imagine it would consist of several dishes, none of which I had ever had before and at least one that I could not identify if it was a pasta/seafood/chicken/salad/dessert dish. Probably something with abalone or shiitake mushrooms (both of which I can only name because of Iron Chef). I'm not of an adventurous taste, either, so I probably wouldn't eat very much, and then go to Wendy's afterward and pig out.

I'm sure I would be impressed with the alive stuffed animals, however.

I guess I would be sorely tempted to freak him out by making a crazy obsessive fan dinner of an inappropriate combination of dishes from the Achewood cookbook. Like Roast Beef's childhood bologna sandwich with Scotch eggs and a Hell Baby.  And then I could remind him of how I made all those dishes and emailed him photographs of them. And he'd eat quickly and then back away very, very slowly, and bolt.  And then I'd post pictures of the event on the messageboard.

But if I decided to give him a break I'd treat us to dinner at a restaurant. Why spoil the event with the stress of cooking.

No sir-ree!

Gee, I don't know - I was imagining a Wonka-esque prize-type situation where Onstand would cook.

I supposed I would expect rissoto, and also some very decent booze.  I would expect a culinary event, but I think it would be equally probable to have a Swanson dinner plopped down in front of me that I had to eat while he glared at me with a cold stare.

Now cooking for Onstad - the pressure's on there:

I'd got with what is regionally suitable to the season, so right now for a fall meal:  Start with a light salad -poppyseed dressing with cranberries and candied almonds over romane hearts partnered with nice german white wine. Then tomato bisque topped with a home-made parma-chip and fresh chopped basil. Main dish would be traditional Herbed French Roasted chicken, potatoes and carrots with sweet onion.  Dessert would be a dense chocolate truffle mousse cake paired with an open bar of classic cocktails.

Dear lawd.. next thing you know we'll all be covering Roy Orbison in cling film.

Or... hell I dunno.. writing Yaoi or something.

Please to be stabbing me in the eye and ending my pain.

(Also I mock with love, maximum cuddles to you all)

So it's satire, is it?  Well that changes everything!

Hell with Onstad I'm buying a ticket to Winnepeg.  And I want to see the bat play, too.

Don't make me start the "My Cling-Film Yaoi Odyssey With Onstad" thread, dude.

I'm sure Kai would have a lot to contribute. I suspect he has many sordid fantasies about him, a corpulent version of Chris Onstad, and that cow and cow-peeling device he was going on about.

Why is it that all our interactions thus far have led to either gay viking poetry or cling-filmed yaoi with Onstad?

Actually, don't answer that.

And if you do write this thing, learn from me and do not post it.

You know, I have no idea? I don't, like, think of yaoi when I read your posts, or anything.

I don't even like yaoi.
Honest.

Fuck Onstad, I think dinner with all of you would be more likely to actually be fun.

fuck*ng Onstad is different subject entirely. You have taken this thread where its founding fathers feared it would go.
