For raventhourne: 5 Cobra Commander Schemes That Might Have Worked.

So Sara and I are pretty bad at this "date" thing. :-p All the plans for the anniversary went out the window, but the end results were quite fun. Dinner for two at Zinburger got side-tracked by the idea of sushi with friends... which then ended up being massive sammiches at Bumsteads instead. After kicking around the 4th ave area for a few ( Read more... )
