Be good to your mama

Read more, swear less, use your polite words, and always be good to your mama. Fridays are good for two things, eating out and reflection of the week. Though we rarely eat out anymore, we splurged today with some Jim n Nicks. So, it's now time to burn the 1500 plus calories I just gorged myself on down in the Batcave. If only food didn't taste so good, we would never have these issues of eating like a hippo that just got done with a three day fast. Ever wonder how food encompasses every part of our life? If you don't believe me, try telling your wife that your family is going to visit some friends around 5:00. "What do we need to bring?" wife says. I say, "Nothing, they already have food." Now comes the glare of silence, which even blind men feel it's burning effect. "You can't go to someones house and not bring something." My retort is, "If you can't mooch off your friends, then they really aren't your friends." More glaring. "I'll go grab some potato salad from Harris Teeter" is my beaten down reply. 

Food, it's everywhere!
