Mike Tyson Quote of the Week

"It's good to know how to read, but it's dangerous to know how to read and not how to interpret what you're reading."

Russian dressing my czar

I was just watching Man v. Food on the Travel Channel and now I'm hungry for a pastrami sandwich. Perhaps a Cumberland Head-style Monte Cristo, I'd like one of those.

Bless you, your sandwich is free.

My frequent sandwich eating habits were finally rewarded today at the Trolley Stop Deli. I had the Californian on wheat, with pepper-jack instead of swiss, extra sprouts and no mustard. You can't mix their mustard with the avocado, it'll ruin everything.
