Thank you for the outpouring of support and encouragement in respect to my new restaurant. You guys are the greatest! I just love bloggers. I could eat you all with a spoon.
I've gotten so many comments and emails with questions about my restaurant. I realize I kind of left everyone hanging, and for that I apologize! I especially must apologize to my sister, who called me after my last post demanding answers. "What?!? You bought a restaurant?!? How did you do that?!?" She even compared the shock to the time 15 years ago when I told her I was gay.
But now let me make amends:
"What is the name of your restaurant?"
You'll never believe this, but I was kind of in a time constraint when it came time to choose the name of my restaurant, so I chose to name it something that has worked for me before: The Jason Show
I know, kind of strange name for a restaurant, huh? For the restaurant world, this name is quite out of the ordinary, although I jokingly say that when I'm ready to turn it into a dinner-theatre it will be quite apropos.
"What is it like running a restaurant? I've heard it is pretty time consuming."
It has been a lot of fun so far. I've enjoyed making decisions on my own, and the customers have been great, although I've noticed that they get very impatient if their food isn't served almost immediately after they sit down.
"You are my hero. Why are you so frickin' awesome?"
I know. Let me use my favorite line from the illustrious Goldie Hawn, playing wealthy debutante, Joanna Stayton, in the best movie ever, Overboard: "Everyone wants to be me."
"Ohh Emm Gee, I'm so turned on right now, I just have thing for restaurant owners. Any way you can show me the dry storage room?"
Please. I'm a married man. Except not in Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Utah, Arizona, North Dakota, South Dakota, Colorado, Montana. . . you get the picture.
"Can we visit the next time we come to Southern California?"
Of course! In the meantime, feel free to to visit my restaurant's website for a much better explanation that what I am doing in this episode of The Show.
Love you guys!

SO excited to go over and find out what is going on. I was thinking about it all day while I was driving around in the city : )
Can't wait to show Kaish! : )
Just catching up on the restaurant news! How exciting for you! I can imagine how fun it could be, but I don't know how you're doing it on top of teaching! You're like Super Man! Congrats, sir! So happy for you!
very funny! I knew with Pumpkin's little hee hee that something was up.
If my marriage wasn't legal everywhere I'd be in some serious trouble...
Can't wait to check out the website!!
DUDE.
Haha
I knew I was behind the times on the Jason show, so I read the previous post and re-read this post and thought,'WOW how is he able to have all this time to keep things going?'
Then I checked out your website...
Slacker.......
I thought everyone wanted to be me, not you. Gutted.
This is fabulous and I'm so jealous.
Best of luck!
you're a fabulous, hilarious shit head.
You tease. You can visit my homestead, farm or tropical island any time.
You little shit!!!!!
Awesome news Jason! Congrats and much luck on this new adventure!
Congrats!!
I'm cracking up at how many people comment before they check out the link. Hilarious!
Very funny.
UR A QT.
Oh you are good. Very very good!
sweet baby jesus! you made me laugh so damn hard! thanks!!!
Does somebody need attention? LOL. You are so silly, Jason.
xoRobyn
WHA?
i was expecting real photos, you naughty boy.
put out or die!!!!
Very funny! hehehe
So you made 2 posts for a joke? =( Not cool.
The sad part is that even after your post with included restaurant link, several readers are still congratulating you unless I'm missing something.
I must learn to go with first instinct. I do think that I'd totally eat at a restaurant called the Jason Show.
Okay, so here is what I have learned by your not quite April Fools joke and your flirty lifeguard joke. If something sounds too good to be true, it probably isn't.
And here I was really happy for you.
If you were my kid, I'd take away your IPod.

You goofball, Jason. You got us all.
When I meet you in person, I am going to kick your A$$.
But, with love, of course. :)
You are so funny!!
That's me that thinks you're so funny...
Dang! You miss one episode of The Jason Show and all heck brakes loose. Congratulations on your new venture! I'm off to look at the website.
Color me PUNKED!!!!
You got me you silly-son-of-a-gun!!!
I was thinking we were going to have to donate you to scientific research-so we could figure out how one person had the energy to teach AND operate a restaurant.
*facepalms*
suckered once again...... ROFL
ha. I read your announcement post before this post... I'm one of the "What is the name of your restaurant?". Well, good choice. It's a name you will remember... not some obscure name that means nothing!
"Every one wants to be me"-that should be your subtitle!
:)
We'll get you for this Mr Jason!
I read the punch line before the joke but am nevertheless highly amused. Put me down for a reservation for eight at seven next Friday night, okay? I'm sure all the beautiful people will be there.
See what happens when I get behind by a few posts? I checked out the website FIRST!
(Now, make me a reservation for a party of 10 please!)
I spend one week away from here, and you buy a freakin' restuant? Awesome!
Okay, now that I've checked it out....turd. Got me.
I wish I lived nearby! I would definitely come and dine at The Jason Show!!! Congrats and lots of luck!
A+ Jason. Hilarious!
Oh, you little...RASCAL! You hoodwinked us, dammit!
Ok, OK...funny. ;)
I'll have the special, served up NOW.
Ha! You are such a trickster Jas!!
I heart u
Oh, people who hear about your resto for the first time will think about a new reality hit show on TV! Haha. Anyways that's a good name to start off. How is it now? And it's great to have a website for your business. Good luck to you and to your business! :)
