Yesterday I overheard some guy ordering "a Soggy Ol' bagel." Turns out he said Asagio, not to be confused w/ Asiago. BTW, all the Panera bakeries here now have free wireless IP. Nirvana!
Caught a few minutes of an odd 90s movie, "Powder," about a fey kid w/ freakish telekinetic powers and blinding white skin. He wears a fedorah throughout, so I told my kids it was The Michael Jackson Story. Favorite line: He's held in some sort of group home for his own protection, where the resident shrink reports that "Our tests indicate you're off the chart. You possess higher intelligence than anyone ever recorded for all time. Do you understand what I'm saying?" Uh, no, could you repeat the middle one?
Make mine Manchego!
On the Panera theme, before trying their wireless, I asked the young barista how it works (meaning, how do I log on?). She charmingly gestured with both arms and said, "Well, there are these invisible waves that just move all around . . ." She wasn't joking. It hurt her feelings when I laughed, which I feel bad about each time I see her.

Krafts Grated Parmesan.
Besides, if he wanted some REAL cheese, always go for formaggio Pecorino!!!!
