Well, I ventured out around lunch time and missed all this fun.

I had an eH date tonight and Harvey7's comments are coincidentally ironic.

I met my date at a coffee shop inside a plaza with magazine stands and restaurants. I had pulled a knitting mag out of one of the stands while I waited for him to arrive. He got lost due to my excellent right-left-no-right directions. When he finally made it, we had blast talking and sipping coffee. Then, he left for the men's room. I took that moment to pay for the knitting magazine and returned to find him with a stricken look on his face a few yards from our table. (You know, you guys are really fast). It took me a second to understand. I felt badly about it. It took him about ten minutes to relax again. It didn't even occur to me that anyone would do that.

Since Harvey7 thought of it, maybe it does happen.

Anyway, we progressed to dinner and he didn't eat like a bird. And you know, I have no idea who finished first. I just really enjoyed the experience. Great guy. I just feel skippy!

Saying someone eats like a bird as in meaning very little is in reality not correct.

Fact: A bird eats 10 times it's own body weight
