Here’s another entry in our ongoing series on being a food critic. This photo involves some creativity, in that a sandwich was made to look like a tennis shoe.
Does it work? Is something missing? What should be changed? You decide.
At our monthly annual business meeting at Larry’s Pizza last week, we all learned something new. One of the waitresses brought a garlic chicken pizza by our table, and we were debating on whether we wanted any. She informed us that it’ll keep the devil away. That sounds like a good plan, so I ate a piece. But we all thought the garlic effect applied to vampires, not the devil. But perhaps the devil is a vampire… I haven’t heard of that before, but I don’t have much to do with him, so I don’t know. But I do know that I like eating at Larry’s Pizza, and apparently that makes my life better in several ways…
Wouldn’t you know it? It’s time for another caption contest! This week’s photo features a big rock with some people in what appears to be a dangerous position. So you can write about what could happen or what already happened. And of course you can make your caption from the point-of-view of anyone in the picture or of someone watching it. Really, you can put about anything you want, as long as it’s relevant to the picture and it’s funny.

If you’ve seen the movie Groundhog Day, perhaps you’ve wondered at some point how long Bill Murray’s character Phil Connors actually stayed there. I came across a website that is about geeking out (or nerding up) pop culture. And they tried to figure out how long Phil Connors actually spent living the same day in Punxsutawney on Groundhog Day.
If this will hinder your future viewings of the movie, then don’t continue reading. If you do keep reading, don’t blame me!
On the DVD, there’s an estimate of 10 years. According to that website’s calculations, he was there at least 3,176 Groundhog Days, or 8.7 years, or 8 years, 8 months, and 16 days. The director actually replied to that blog (in a round-about way), and said it would be at least that long, at a minimum, but probably longer.
Of course, this is open for debate, and, in the end, pointless. So I won’t keep rambling on about it.
P.S., there is no refund available for the time you wasted on this. 🙂
