I’ve been a vegetarian for almost 20 of my 35 years. Today my toddler son was walking around looking for this week’s favorite book, and in the most plaintive tone of voice imaginable asked me “Ham? Ham?”
A guy I dated in college founded the omnivore society* on campus. If he’s reading this, he’s going to be so entertained.
* The society was called Macalester Omnivores Organized, by the way. So high-larious.
Heck. Did you got to Macalester? My best buddy, Grace, did, too.
Quite entertained.
I hadn’t known until recently that Green Eggs & Ham was written based on a bet.

Speaking of MOO:

So Scientology and Green Eggs and Ham both came to us because of bets. I wonder if there’s any deep significance there.
