Tournament Update

"I only eat one meal a day. Lunch, not dinner." - Robert Goulet

I bet when this was taken
he was thinking, "I can't wait
until the next time I eat lunch. I'm
extremely hungry this evening." 
Normally we of The Loop Lunch Club would agree wholeheartedly with the mealtime sentiments of Mr. Goulet (especially when he expresses said sentiments in his world renowned silky tenor), however, on the condition that the conversation revolves around lunch we find that there is an appropriate occasion to indulge in a dinner. This occasion, of course, is The Loop Lunch Club Tournament Party.

Almost daily I'm stopped on the street--usually by international tourists who have bookmarked this blog--and asked "LLC? Are you guys a limited liability corporation?" While often my instinct tells me to remove a flip flop and smack some size 9.5 open toed sense into them, a cooler head prevails and I opt for a simple explanation of why we are not. To begin, we have no limits. We are only liable to be late on occasion and our corporate ambitions extend only so far as our half baked plans to begin merchandising by summer's end. That being said, we hope to go public soon and are looking for reckless, overeager, and most likely empty stomached investors who may want to get in on the ground floor. If this sounds like you or somebody you know, please join us or bring your deep pocketed venture capitalist friend to our upcoming tournament party.
Where it says "Madonna" imagine it says "LLC" and replace the image of Madonna with the photo at the end of this post. That will give you an idea of what we're looking forward to.

The party, to be held July 3rd, will simulate the total experience of an LLC outing through a series of carnival style attractions. First, marvel at your watch while waiting on Late Lake. Then, test your strength by stepping into the octagon with Rubenstein, whose LLC brand singlets will be available for retail in the gift shop. After the bout, refresh your body and mind by sampling one of Dan "Sommelier" Spira's finest Diet Cokes. Once you've worked up an appetite mosey on over to the Ofman Brothers' Omelet Bar (fully stocked with everything but onions) and take part in a brainstorm on how to get rich quick by playing golf and not working hard. Finally, join Professor Anderson for a lecture on how to split a bill 6 ways. Pending the speed of ground shipping Anderson may be wearing the Cee Lo Green costume recently purchased from TheVoice.com.

And that's not all!

Guests will also receive substantial portions of grilled meats, poultry, alcohol, and lively debate. So please, join us and be a part of history as the next Loop Lunch Club Champion is crowned.
