Sounds great. Or how about we rent a huge party barge in St. Louis and party on the Mississippi? We could call our little soiree the "Hazard to River Navigation". (We live in Tennessee, but St. Louis is close to Lulu's dad's home in southern Illinois...so we would definitely attend!)
I'd go to Morton's Steakhouse, and after they finish the visual presentation of the menu, I'd order "all of that, please. Yes." That should be about a grand.
I want this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matsusaka_beef Judging from the picture, $1000 USD would only buy about 4.5 lbs of this meat ....
Hmm, I'd definitely be tempted to splurge on a first growth Bordeaux or maybe a few boxes of Montecristo #2's...possibly a few pre-Castro vintage Cubans. Being a vegetarian, there are few meals I could enjoy for 1K...not to say I wouldn't try.
A kilobuck's worth of MREs and long-shelf-life packaged food. Laugh now, but we know who you'll all be running to when the Mutant Zombie Mall-Ninjas show up... lol
That is on my list of wines I would love to taste, if only I knew somebody with a bottle and a willingness to share ...
