No one must know my terrible secret...

House of Noh!


Friday, January 27, 2006

Lots of people seem to stake their entire cool on the vilification of iceberg lettuce. Me? I'm hedging my bets, because it's just a matter of time before the Iceberg Lettuce Federation hires a new PR firm which then convinces them to pay off some jerk researchers at some ivy league institution for fire to publish a study about how Iceberg Lettuce actually is good for you because it contains some contrived chemical-name like iso-flavo-lettucinos which really just means “lettuce molecules.” This trend has already begun: Lucy Lettuce is already associating with the FDA Food Pyramid Five a Day Friends.

I’ve had to wrestle with these lettuce issues lately, because a bagger at the grocery put somebody else’s pre-washed, sliced pure iceberg in my bag (yes, with my taco shells). I’ve been eating it on sandwiches. But don’t think for a second I’m eating iceberg lettuce on tacos. I’m not a cretin!!

The Weekly World News has a very useful article on 10 ways to tell if your neighbor worships Satan. Number 5 is “They rarely laugh, or laugh under the wrong circumstances – for example, when a child is hit by a car.”

I’ve got this one neighbor; I don’t think that he worships Satan. But I am starting to suspect that he might be a prostitute. I just had a conversation with one of his gentleman callers who pushed my intercom buzzer by mistake, a very timid man who referenced not my neighbor’s name but very courteously described some sort of enigmatic “recent phone call.” I’ll keep you posted.
