    Broccoli on sale
    Like an idiot, bought two
    Now turning yellow

      I always do that. The worst is when I go to Costco. A week later, we usually throw half of what we bought out.

      There’s also this.

      I’m getting hungry.

      Dumb Chicagoboy!
      Steam broccoli lightly; freeze
      Keeps a good long while

      Jonathan,
      Sounds like you need a few more mouths to feed down there, I’ll send my kids. Or you could just gorge yourself and have a massive colon blow the next day.

      Project got pushed back,
      InCog bored out of his mind,
      Chicagoboyz helps.

      Eat, poop, and slumber,
      That’s what babies do all day,
      Not a bad life eh?

      “Massive colon blow”
      Repulsive mental image
      No thanks for sharing

      Cauliflower too
      Frequently rots in the fridge
      Since no one likes it

      Lots of vitamins,
      and Metamucil daily.
      No need for fresh stuff.

      Ha! Maybe we should do this more often.

      Oxtail, garlic, salt,
      Cabbage, carrot, onion, cook,
      Three hours, tasty soup.

      Wonderful Haiku! The combination of libertarian capitalism and minimalist Asian poetry yields unexpected pleasures – a virtual fortune cookie of Friedman-esque whimsy.

      I had a friend who was off to Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea. His experiences were best summed up by the following haiku, which he was “inspired” to write:

      Skeeters sting all night
      Cannot sleep: I have strange dreams.
      Send more quinine please.
