The Long and Short of It

The boss listens to a classical music station on the radio. It is called WFMT. It is FM. That means it is liberal.

Today they were reading an ad for a restaurant. You could order a citrus reduction and quince risotto. It is in a German neighborhood, but I do not know how risotto got into a German restaurant. Risotto is Italian. Germans like spätzle. Also cabbage.

Lots of people started to cook these foreign foods when yuppie baby boomers stopped smoking pot long enough to buy something besides Oreo cookies and pizza. The boss used to own a Krups coffee maker and an Atlas pasta machine. Before my time. I hope that she has learned something from this solid American. Dunkin’ Donuts and Kraft macaroni and cheese are gourmet enough for me.

They are having a fund raiser on WFMT to soak all the liberals so they can keep playing French music and advertising quail en croute. Businessmen like me also give them money, but that is so we can still be cut throats only with Beethoven playing in the background.

There was a movie about Beethoven. He was a Saint Bernard.
