Formal business dinner etiquette?

Last night I had an important business dinner with three influential executives from a firm I am being recruited by. We started with a few drinks, mainly Glenlivet single malt scotch, apple schnapps shots, and a delicious smoked tequila relieved by a finish of rich crème de mure and elderflower liqueur, so by the time we ordered our entrée my salivary glands were saturated and watering. When the main course of tender steak and juicy lobster arrived at the table, the palpable aromas reached my nose and I began gleeking uncontrollably all over everyone's course. At first one of the executives asked me what I was doing, and when I couldn't answer because my mouth was spraying saliva all over his double breasted Italian suit his patience began to run out. He told me to excuse myself to the men's room before the night was ruined, and when I frantically got up I bumped the table and his port wine spilled all over him. He lunged at me from across the table and tackled me onto the floor, where we started going at it, slugging each other on the ground. I ended up being kicked out of the restaurant and didn't even get to enjoy my dinner..

I am wondering if it is appropriate to send a box of assorted Godiva chocolates with nuts, and call back to see if I got the job?
you can't handle the truth: Gay jokes are funny in closed quarters but distasteful on a public internet social website. Apologize to the gay community now you scathing serpent!
