-
I'm there if the tacos are as good as you say. :thumbup;

If the tacos suck I am going to be pissed!
-
Kit, believe me, they DO NOT suck... ;) Damn, i wish i was going :'(
-
I'm so jealous! ;D If they ever come up with a "make-a-wish foundation" for kidney patients, my wish is going to be to get all the IHD folks together at Tito's Tacos (transportation, dialysis, tacos, and hotel reservations provided free, of course). Can you even imagine? :2thumbsup;

He was very nice and he seemed happy to be there at the event, his daughter even helped out at the event. He was very approachable, although he didn't stay long. Sinbad stayed the whole night. Sinbad is just like he seems on TV, a very cool guy. I even over heard him calling his wife and telling her not to forget to Tivo "24" (a TV show).

Make sure everyone brings their camera ;) :clap;

Can we use our real names at Tito's? There's just something about looking at someone and saying..."how was your drive over Epoman?"...that just doesn't work in person...I'll have my "hi, my name is Jeff" tag on.

But, but, but, my name really is Epoman ;D
-
hmmm with that name you might fit right in with the rest of the Spacemen at Fry's Burbank!
-
This event is still on, as far as I am concerned I will be at Tito's Tacos on March 17. I plan to eat tacos and drink a soda in honor of Epoman. Join me?
-
He would be upset if you all didnt keep this date. You know what Tito's meant to him, aye yi yi, i miss you my little buddy, my sucka fish. I hope everyone can still make this meet (and have a taco for me too) thank you :)
-
I plan to be there on Mar 17, and we will keep a spot at the table for Epoman. He would have
insisted on photos, so we will not disappoint!

Thanks Karol.
-
I wouldn't miss it.
-
Wish I lived closer and could attend, but I look forward to the pics. :thumbup;
-
I'm on the east coast, right outside Philadelphia, way too far to make it. But, I will go to Taco Bell on the 17th ( no Tito's here) & have a taco & soda & think about Epoman & all you guys & how he would have loved the Mini Meet.
You are truly loyal to "The Man" & are great for not calling it off.
It will be bittersweet, but you will have a wonderful time.
Set a place & a taco out for Epoman.
Wishing I could be there I'll be thinking of ya.
Jane
-
I wish I lived closer also.
But that is a good idea. I will also have a taco and soda that day.
I miss Epoman.
-
Suggestion: at two oclock California time, on March 17th have a taco and soda in memory of Epoman, or just stop and take a minute to remind yourself how precious life is.

We don't have Tacos here. The nearest thing is a dish imported from India, through Trinidad, which is called 'roti'. It is curried meat, wrapped in an envelope, made with flour and sometimes splitpea powder (then called 'dhalpouri roti') The envelope itself is the roti, but we tend to call the whole thing 'roti'. At about 11.00 a.m. on Saturday I will be having a roti as you guys guzzle the tacos.

I've been studying the menu to see what we should do. We'll start off with a couple of large bags of chips, two large orders each of salsa and guacamole, and go from there. The burritos sound pretty good. I like them wet with plenty of the mole sauce in and on top of them. No breakfast for this boy tomorrow...maximum capacity is needed for Tito's. See you all there.

Hope you have a great day be thinking of you all . I will be at a Mates wedding Don't forget the :pics;
Cheers Charee

Livecam, when Epoman took me to Tito's, he wanted me to eat the Taco's cuz that is what they are famous for, so whatever you do, make sure you EAT THOSE TACO'S AMIGO... :beer1;
-
Tacos Tacos Tacos...get your Tacos! Everyone enjoy and take those pictures.
-
Tacos, burritos they are all the same in the end! Those chips and salsa sound great, so does the guacamole. Let's eat!
-
Go here and turn on the sound http://www.titostacos.com/
LOL Sing along! :beer1;
-
Nummy nummy. Lunch is going to be good today!
-
Well, this i know, i got a call from Trina a little before 2pm asking me to contact another member to let them know she is stuck in traffic and will be late, so i call Vandie, Vandie is stuck in traffic also (aye yi yi, LA and their traffic) so i called Kit and they were there waiting for the others to arrive. Sounds to me like Tito's is gonna be partyin' today, Epoman would be so pleased, :beer1;
love and miss ya Big Guy... :angel;
-
I can hardly wait to find out how it went. I'm like an anxious little kid!
-
Me Too!!
-
I have been thinking about everyone all day and can't wait to hear (and see) how the taco event went. I was there in thought!
-
I am so excited to hear how it all went, Kit had called while they were there and I was so pleased (ok, i cried) when she listed off all the people who were there, Epoman was looking forward to this day and couldnt wait for it to happen, now that it is here, he is not. Come on someone, please come and tell me how you liked the Taco's, i am sitting on the edge of my seat over here :P
-
Thanks for the call from Tito's. You will never realize what that meant to me. Sounded noisy and I heard a possible food fight going on...is this true?
-
I am home but have to go to a parent party for school (I am so stuffed after eating tacos...burp) so I will post photos later. Loved being at Tito's and seeing everyone. It was great to speak to Sluff on the phone too! And I talked to Goofynina on the way home - she was happy we went. People from IHD are the BEST!
-
I'm gonna have to start passing out my cell #, :lol;
Glad you got full, I look forward to seeing pic! Have fun at your parent party!
-
I hope you all had a great time! Wish I could have been there! :wine; :wine; :wine;
I just got out of the hospital a few days ago.

Thought about all of you at Tito's today! Even played the music that Okarol posted! And ........................I am thankful that Epoman and IHD are part of my life :)
love, kelli
-
Go to the Tito's site and play the music while you read this post. Go on.. I will wait...
So it is two o'clock and we arrive at Tito's. No parking in the lot so we parked on down around the block. Tito's was hopping busy. Three to four people lined up outside and an equal amount inside the place. No tables inside so we grabbed a large one outside on the patio. It was warm and sunny when we started out on the patio. It was a gorgeous day and not too hot in Culver City. I got into line with my sister Christy and we ordered tacos and burritos and chips. God, we had so many chips we could have bathed in them! They were pretty good, too. Hubby and Christy had burritos and a tamale. I had tacos with Salsa! I am with the dark side of taco eating! Then the gang showed up and we saw Karol's kids and then Jeff and Deanna. We all ate and had fun and talked. Trina and Nick showed up too. Everyone was a little late due to traffic. A good time was had by all. We called Sluff and everyone said hello. We moved inside when the marine layer clouded over and a cool breeze hit us. We took over three tables and continued the partry inside. We took over almost twelve chairs in there with the kids playing video games and the adults talking together. I am sure they were glad when we left the place!
However, Tito's is not the best tacos in town! And the salsa is weak. But it was okay and I had fun with friends!

Ooooh, Kit, Girlfriend, when i read that the first thing i thought of was Epoman was going to send a lightning bolt down to get'cha for saying that, lol, you know how much the Boss loved him some Tito's :P
(and when we went, the company was way better than the food) ;)
BUT the food was damn good ;) (no lightning bolts for me please Boss) ;)

Tito's Tacos, March 17, 2007. Here's to you BOSS!
-
Great pics. I'm glad you all had a good time. :thumbup;
-
Fantastic Pictures! Thank You so much.

Tito’s was great.
Everyone got there late.
There was a way and a will
Despite traffic being at a standstill.
The 91 freeway bit
I was late to see my friend Kit.
Kitkatz and Victor got there first
For Trina and Nick traffic was worse.
We ordered a mountain of chips
With guacamole and salsa dips
Okarol was late and brought 4 kids along,
they ordered the food and couldnt go wrong,
Epo had said JUST TACOS,
Some of us orders ingored!
and HE had said: No SALSA allowed,
not a hint, not a drop, no more!
I crossed over to the dark side
And salsa'd the tacos wide.
We put a call into old Sluff
He had to huff and puff.
He was glad to hear us having fun.
We had just begun!
The tacos were fine
The burritos divine.
I would not go back if the food cost a dime!
Tito’s Tacos was great
The food, the fun, even being late!
So get together with members from IHD.com
It does not matter where you are from.
We raised a taco, to honor our friend.
Here’s to you boss. This isn’t the end.

Tremendous! Just as Epoman would have liked it (except for the slight infractions!) IHD has become a real family. Look how the members are enjoying being with each other! (Better than some families, right?)
So sorry I couldn't make it, but my Mitsubishi RVR Jeep told me "you gotta be mad, girl" when I suggested us trekking across the Caribbean Sea to the US mainland and then over to Calif. Wimpy vehicle, right?
-
Great pics, Wish I could have been there but sooooo far away!!

-
But we are not talking about me.. ;) >:D >:D >:D >:D

Looks like everyone have a great time. There was no way I could make it, but I stopped while I was out and got a taco in Epomans honor on Sat.
-
Thanks for the pictures and the narrative! How I wish I could have been there! I think Epoman must have been SO happy to look down and see all of you, with Nick and Trina, enjoying one of his favorite places. It was especially nice to see the photo of Nick and some of his extended IHD family. THANKS AGAIN! :clap; :2thumbsup; :thumbup; :clap; :2thumbsup; :thumbup; :cuddle;
-
Great Photos. Really wish I could have been there. Maybe one day we could all meet each other using something like video conference technology, who knows? I would love to meet people from this site. I've never tried the chat room, problem is I don't type very fast you'd all get bored.lol.
