Casey Thompson (Sorta) Gets a Job

According to the text on my Blackberry, former Shinsei sensation Casey Thompson, has landed a Vicky Cristina Barcelona-styleIt doesn’t “sound” like a permanent, long-term gig, consulting job at Central 214 at Hotel Palomar. Casey is dining with friends at Dali and “says” she’s going to start working soon. The “xo” in her text must mean she is happy about it, right? Hmm, I hope the “Kc” at the bottom of the text does mean “Casey”. I’m new to this texting stuff. Could someone be yanking my cell phone? (Don’t answer that.)

    I don’t get the Vicky Cristina Barcelona reference, Nancy. Are you implying Casey Thompson has moved in with an artist? Or that she and the artist’s murderous wife have something going on? Or that she is Woody Allen’s protégée?

  • Nancy Nichols

    Guess it was a stretch–not permanent or long term just a fun romp in the kitchen before she finds what she really wants to do.

  • Doctor Love

    Could she sit on my lap as she feeds me?
    Now, that is dining marketing ; )

  • Don Ho

    Jeez, Nancy. Could that have been any more confusing? Are you coherent? Have you given up the basics of human communication?

    Uhhhh….xo?

  • Nancy Nichols

    you guys are no fun. I am going to bed.

  • Sharpie?

    Why do all the markouts? We can still read it.
    If you want it deleted, delete it. You want us to read it then leave it. Half-ass effort here by a “writer.” I am going to bed now.

  • Dallasite

    You guys really aren’t any fun… Geez, back off.

  • Nancy Nichols

    Because we have a no-delete rule. And Don Ho’s comment wouldn’t have made much sense. At least I use my real name, Sharpie.

  • Amy S

    Casey could help me start up the Conrad Culinary Club at Conrad HS (restaurant management magnet) it’s going to be a blast. In fact she might just be the secret weapon to DISD’s drop out problem. KC, I’ll be callin’ you soon about volunteering an hour or so, please stick around!

  • Sharpie?

    Nancy - I guess since you’re so brave you’d like a Purple Heart for using your real name. Sorry, that is for people that have REAL bravery and honor. It doesn’t go to someone that just types. Again the arrogance of the press comes through as always.

  • Don in Austin

    Geez, someone woke up on the wrong side of the sour grapes. The writers on this blog have only been doing strike throughs for oh, like, the entire existance of the blog. Welcome to the fray Sharpie and be sure to use that instrument in a well ventilated room.

    I believe a Purple Heart is awarded to soldiers for being wounded, not for bravery. As a food critic, I’m sure Nancy has been wounded many times in service to her readers.

  • more horns

    i liked her better with horns

    and shouldn’t every story about her use this pic? i think so.

  • A.Stewert

    I feel bad that you are accepting central 214 as a gig…really?

    Goodluck working with the likes of a not-so-stellar mgmt team…why do you think Tom Fleming left…ask him for the real story!

  • A.Stewert

    I get it? Sorta?

  • joesachef

    Hafta agree with More horns- hubba,hubba. As for Sharpies- they are such an integral part of the culinary world, that any pocket posing pen would be glad for an opportunity to be LaNichols strike out poser.

  • Nancy Nichols

    More Horns. Nice. Love it.

  • i'll vote for that

    Yes! Horns, Boobs, Boobs, and Horns, Yes!

  • Rick

    Hmph. All this backroom chatter.. Casey is no different than you or I. She’s trying to get ahead and have some fun in the process. Too bad all the focus is on this pic. (sigh!)
