Passionate Post


My brother J-Rad is a passionate guy. He detests people who cough on planes, the song 'We Are One', cheese cake and many things too un-pc to put in writing. So when he loves, he also loves passionately:
"Something has been on my mind recently. It holds me captive day and night in an inescapable cell: I am Andy Dufrene, but I don’t have a rock hammer or a poster of Rita Hayworth. I am Lincoln Burrows but Michael Schofield is not my brother.
…And to what do I owe this ongoing, esoteric, cerebral enslavement? The humble Japanese Curry, as prepared by the master chefs at Hanaichi."

Sandwich City

American’s must come to other countries and go “WTF - you call this a sandwich?”

Seriously, they may know nothing about coffee, but they sure know how to build a sandwich, and that’s saying something, because I usually loathe the humble ‘sanger’.

In New York, you order a turkey sub, and expect enough shaved bird to give you leftovers for dinner, and christmas next year. How people are expected to fit these things in their mouths, I know not. And just how many cans of tuna do they have to open to fill a tuna melt?

Mind-blowing, really. Here's one from Katz Deli:



mmm!

Signs of a Food Addict

It’s gotten way out of hand when:

  1. The flirtatious Italian man, who owns the pizza place a block away, keeps offering you the keys to his boat.

“Take it out for the afternoon! I won’t come, you can have it all to yourself. Seriously!” he says.

Sure - you may dine there 4 times a week… but couldn’t he just make your pizza free?

  1. You are at a bar in Brooklyn with two people who attended Clown College – FOR REAL! These people lead highly unusual lives and interesting conversation is a given!! However there was a taco truck at the back of the bar. Everywhere you look, people are eating burritos.

Despite having eaten just over an hour ago:

Level of concentration and effort in conversation = 0.

Level of thoughts about burritos and and tacos = 23.


So... I’ve decided to go “cold turkey” off both pizza and cheese. And just like not walking down the potato chip isle of a supermarket, it’s actually easier than I thought.

10 days dry and not counting.
