The normally quite expensive Morton’s Steakhouse is having a Steak and Seafood for Two special until Sept. 30, 2008. $110 for two people (or $55 each)! You each get a seafood appetizer (shrimp, crab cake or scallops); salad (Caesar or House); Steak (single cut filet); Side dish (potato, veggie); and dessert (hot chocolate cake or key lime pie). Awesome!

Perhaps everyone knows about this already, but this is my most recent “great deal!” find. It’s going to the Regal Theatres at Dole Cannery on a Tuesday. Tuesday is free popcorn day AND dollar hot dog day. I got a large diet coke ($4.50), small popcorn (free!) and 2 hotdogs (I was really hungry because I snacked instead of having lunch) for…you got it! $6.50! Awesome!

I don’t trust a man who uses the word evil eighteen times in ten minutes. If you’re half evil, nothing soothes you more than to think the person you are opposed to is totally evil.
