he was getting an award at the SICP lawyer's luncheon. He was standing there with someone from administration who introduced us. I forgot that he was an honoree, Mulaney's father and a pretty prominent lawyer in his own right. I had to quickly piece everything together and congratulate him on the award. Seems like an incredibly friendly person without a hint of arrogance. Very easy conversationalist.

When Gordon has a lawyer's luncheon it's just Santiago Durango sitting at La Villa by himself.

La Villa was my grandma's favorite restaurant. I can still remember taking her there and she knew the waitress by name. I wish I had a place where the people knew me by name.

That was Mahoney.

You are thinking of John Mahoney. John Mulaney is that representative from Maryland who is running for the Democratic Presidential ticket in 2020.

I thought John Mulaney was a comedian.

That comedian that got locked in the bathroom all weekend by the police? His name was John Detainee.

La Villa on Pulaski by Irving?

It's closer to Addison, but yes.

Pretty sure Curious Hair and I are the only ones who hear a Bauhaus song in our head every time this thread gets bumped.

I recently watched a couple of John Mulaney's specials. They were funny.

I dind't know his dad was in Bauhaus.
