On our LA trip, we noticed that there were tons of tattoo parlors and cigar shops in LA. As we went on our merry way to various destinations, we played a spotting game, just like playing slug-bug, only with tattoo parlors and cigar stores ... "TATTOO" or "CIGARS" were constantly yelled in our rental car. After a while it got old and we started to yell out random words on various signs. So, near our hotel, there's sushi restaurant in a strip mall and every time we passed it, Tracie and/or Janeen would yell out "Sushi Dake" (pronouncing "dake" like "fake") ... Of course it drove me nuts so I keep yelling back at them, "Da-kay! It's pronounced Da-kay!"
It's amazing what one can find on the internet these days. Tracie and I related this portion of our trip to Pinky last night and look what she found. Pinky ROCKS! Yes, there's a donut shop in the strip mall also. I think Tracie is thinking of calling the LA trip memoir, "Sushi Dake and the Donut Prince" ... yeah, it has a nice ring to it.
