    what the heck is a "power lunch". Is it along the same lines as a "power sh*te".

    If you said you were looking to have a "powerful lunch", maybe we could help you there... :)

    As they say out my way "jaysus, I ate a powerful dinner in _____ restaurant last night. It was powerful"

    POWER LUNCH

    A gathering of co-workers or of mostly young male corporate douches (see yuppies) for a 3 hour lunch on the clock that includes such things as a motorcade of Lexus and BMW automobiles, motivational speakers, cheers, steak, and talk about something like the “bottom line” or bonuses or something. Supposedly a motivational event, but usually turns out to be a feast of gluttony and ruined neckties. Newly motivated and encouraged participants are expected to go back to the office and make phone calls and fire off emails and achieve results, but most usually end up at a local boozer and get tanked before happy hour even starts.
    “Hey, there’s a power lunch at the Capital Club next Friday.”
    “Alright. Their steaks have a terrific marbling, and it’s right next to Moe’s. I wonder if the boss will open us a tab and leave again?”


    :):)

    I usually wear red Braces to every lunch and shout at People nearby to provide me with facts and figures........

    - Incidentally; Today I had Chicken Korma, the longest River in Asia is apparently The Yangtze and its 6,300 kilometres long.
