FIVE IN A ROW
Did you know you can tell something,
even if only vaguely, about a person's
financial status by what he eats for lunch?
Last week, (all of our creditors please take
note) our wife, for five days in a row, packed
in our dune-buggy lunch box, a solitary meal
of peanut and butter sandwiches.
Now, when anyone asks us how we are able
to keep our weight down, we tell that we are
on a strict carbohydrate diet...and that we
worry alot.
At least with this diet, we don't have to worry
about foods with a high cholesterol content or
an over exposure to high protein side effects,
And the adverse monetary consequences are
nearly negligible.
Our stomach just gastrically interrupted us and
suggested the we ask our wife to slip in a bologna
sandwich every five days...just to break the monotony.
