"There is no sincerer love than the love of food."  -George Bernard Shaw, Man and Superman, Act 1

 

"Imagine all the food you have eaten in your life and consider that you are simply some of that food, rearranged."  -Max Tegmark, physicist

 

Gene Weingarten, writing in the Washington Post about online news stories and the accompanying readers' comments: "I basically like 'comments,' though they can seem a little jarring: spit-flecked rants that are appended to a product that at least tries for a measure of objectivity and dignity. It's as though when you order a sirloin steak, it comes with a side of maggots."

 

Ignorance breeds monsters to fill up all the vacancies of the soul that are unoccupied by the verities of knowledge. -Horace Mann, education reformer, politician

 

Read to children. Vote. And never buy anything from a man who's selling fear. -Mary Doria Russell, science-fiction writer

 

A king can stand people's fighting, but he can't last long if people start thinking. -Will Rogers, humorist

There's part of me that can identify with that. I don't do it, but I understand.

On Saturday I was on my way to my aunt's birthday party in Nova Scotia, and stopped into a Sobeys (one of Canada's two main grocery chains) to pick up some potato chips as our contribution. As I walked in there was a couple standing in front of a big display of corn, packed in threes on styrofoam trays at $2.99 ea.

 

The man was boggling at this and grumped that "A buck an ear is highway robbery!"

 

"No," I told him, "It's...piracy."

His wife/girlfriend got it right away and laughed, but it took him a few beats. What can I say, Dad Jokes 'R' Us.
