A group of 15 year old boys discussed where they should meet for dinner. It was agreed they would meet at McDonald's next to Captain Jack's Seafood Grill, because they only had six dollars among them; they could ride their bikes there and Jenny Webster, that cute girl in Social Studies, lived on the same street, and they might see her.

Ten years later, the group of, now 25 year old guys, discussed where to meet for dinner. It was agreed they would meet at Captain Jack's Seafood Grill because the beer was cheap, the bar had free snacks, the house band was good, there was no cover charge, and lots of cute girls.

Ten years later, at 35, the group once again discussed where they should meet for dinner. Once again, they decided it would be Captain Jack's Seafood Grill. The booze was good and it was close to the gym and, if they went late enough, there wouldn't be a gang of those noisy, whinny little kids.

Ten years later, at 45, the group, still pals, once again discussed where they should meet for dinner. It was agreed upon they would meet at Captain Jack's Seafood Grill, because the martinis were big and the waitresses wore tight pants.

Ten years later, now 55, the group, once again, discussed where they should meet for dinner. It was agreed upon they would meet at Captain Jack's Sea Food Grill because the prices were reasonable, they have a nice wine list, and fish is good for your cholesterol.

Ten years later, at 65 years of age, the group once again discussed where they should meet for dinner. Again, it was agreed upon that they would meet at Captain Jack's Seafood Grill because they have good lighting and an early bird special.

Ten years later, now 75 years old, the group once again discussed where they should meet for dinner. They agreed they would meet at Captain Jack's Seafood Grill because the food was not too spicy and the restaurant was handicapped accessible.

Ten years later, at 85 years of age, the old friends meet once again to discuss where they should meet for dinner. It was unanimous: They decided to go to Captain Jack's Seafood Grill, because they had never been there before.
