<p>mid2008</p>
<p>only had i twice
and the little cafe in basement once</p>
<p>and ive seen what princeton review sad WORST</p>
<p>I do agree its bad, could be worst</p>
<p>but
youve made it
half year at sea
and
four more months of pizza</p>
<p>then
your swimming in gravy !!!</p>
<p>keep up good work</p>
<p>I dunno. Some P/Cs are sounding a bit crankier of late than they used to.</p>
<p>I can see now that the countdown to Parents Weekend is moving VERRYYY SLOWWWLLYYY. I can appreciate how much these kids will want to wolf down some food (of their own choosing) and then Sleep!</p>
<p>Well Zonker I think I'm going to try your theory. Still getting shopping orders. Now he wants food. Brought chicken cutlets and pasta up to him today to give him a break from school food. What do you think the pay back should be for hand delivered items?</p>
<p>make him pay for it in sweat. hehehe...</p>
<h2>Might not be any left after CTOs get through with them.</h2>
<p>Anyway, I'd heard J.R.R Tolkien got 3 hand-delivered meals at college. Result=a trilogy (Lord of the Rings) of substantial heft. </p>
<p>Welllll, I mighta made that last one up. Pick something in between those two. :D</p>
<p>In the Bad Food competition
I think Navy is gaining on us

<p>wow after reading that is sounds like they not only gained......but flew past KP on the food court!</p>
<p>maybe KP should send its cooks down to Annapolis as a backup force
and get one of the Great Neck steakhouses to takeover Delano duties</p>
<p>Peter Lugar's perhaps? You work on that one Dad!</p>
<p>this is definitely the case. my P/C was at annapolis in 2005 for a sports camp and said the food at King Hall was good. Son number two was at the same camp this summer and stated it was awlful - due to rennovations the meals were pre-cooked, nuked and served. He felt MRE's would have been better.</p>
<p>send our cooks to navy
and let the mids cook their own
now that would be an educational experience</p>
<p>My son likes to cook and he has said that he would love to teach them how to make gravy, so maybe having someone else cook would be a good thing.</p>
<p>I know how to cook MRE's - they are much better than I thought they would be, even after a few days of only MRE's, I still liked them...</p>
<p>They definetly beat Delano's Grilled cheese</p>
<p>My son LOVES MREs (ok , a few aren't so hot). But makes a day at the paintball field much nicer. And 2010BandCoMom, my son likes to EAT. . . So, maybe our two boys would make a team -- in the Odd Couple/Felix Unger-Oscar Madison kind of way. :D :D :D</p>
<p>zonker - my son does like to cook and on camp outs a few MREs are okay but he would prefer making biscuits and gravy and red beans and rice and egg burritos - even at the campouts. He has always hated the food there because we do have a lot of good cooks in the family.</p>
<p>biscuits and gravy and red beans and rice </p>
<p>add to this grits and hard bolled eggs
and all the snapper and grouper we could catch</p>
<p>and the have the full menu of an Alabama crewboat</p>
<p>STRESSSSSED OUUUUUUUUUUUTTT!!!
(Mom, not Son)
....My P/C fractured his right foot a week ago playing basketball. I've sent the plastic garbage bags to cover the cast in shower & the socks he requested. Of all times, right before his B'day last week. Not too much info from him...found out on Monday via his phone call from Patten Hall. </p>
<p>To add insult to injury, he put a gash in his arm from slipping on crutches hobbling to class when it rained.
My son, the California Guy... Is getting a Heavy dose of East Coast "character building"....</p>
<p>Please tell me how this impacts his involvement in activities.
(He doesn't say much in e-mails, I think he's pretty down, since he was so revved up the Sunday before.) Thank God he didn't break it during INDOC...But now Parent's Week... URGGGGG....</p>
<p>Also...Thanks for the great tip on ordering the B'day cake from Delano Hall.</p>
<p>Prouddad2010...</p>
<p>i'm not OK
he's not OK....</p>
<p>PJMom ~ A few of us have been "talking" off-site and this sentiment seems to be an epidemic. On this rollercoaster ride, I think they are on the decline, but soon to be lifted with P/W - hopefully! For mine, I was thinking that he was hearing (IM) from all of his regular college friends who are - at this point - going through orientation and all of the fun activities/parties/girls that go along with that while he, meanwhile, is under the stress of midterm tests, tattoos, labs, reports, etc. I was there last Sunday and brought a gang of them lunch and I could feel the lack of energy in the air - compared to my last visit a month ago. So given your son's physical state and what seems to be a universal emotional state of the PCs, he may be down...but the good news is that I think they are on the upswing - especially with the long weekend ahead. I hope they do something fun.</p>
<p>oh</p>
<p>thats a horse of a different color</p>
<p>very sorry to hear that</p>
<p>i dont know the policy but
i do remember a couple mids on crutches
last parent weekend</p>
<p>hopefully it will just give him a little
extra time for studying</p>
<p>and yes, i do think there may be some
"east coast character building" going on there
its good if strong medicine</p>
