Half for me and half for the filthy starving gentleman you see outside the window and who follows me everywhere. It is true that I am not an ascetic, but it is not the food itself I crave, but that which the food is consumed to soak up-namely, good, cheap wine. I can communicate with the gods when I do this(and, yes, I am openly bragging now). I can taste the sweat from the feet of the obese Italian women who stamped the grapes into this mixture, their salty little toes communicating the ancient sadness of their people, their destroyed empire, the salty tears of their emperors, of whom the filth soiled gentleman is a victim. I guess I could give him the whole sandwich...jaynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3295056617382826450.post-18662361781409335322009-04-01T17:04:00.000-07:002009-04-01T17:04:00.000-07:00Thanks, Daisy - yeah, we might drive on up in May ...Thanks, Daisy - yeah, we might drive on up in May if the weather is right.
