Week After Day After Freaksgiving Sale!!
This was Isral's idea. He said the next time i was hard up for posts, i should post one of the old back-issue versions of the semi-fabled, extremely rare, deservedly unknown Bensaki Emails. These were pretty much what i wrote before i had a blog, so they're kind of in the same vein, only i sent them to people by email. Since pretty much only my friends read this blog, there's a good chance you've read this already, but for whatever reason, i'm posting it anyway. Enjoy.
the critics raved. the critics ranted. the critics were rabid. they had to be put to sleep. so bensaki continued on his million-dollar campaign to annoy everyone on his email list for his own personal amusement. now, before your grilled cheese ice cream sandwich gets stale, we will move on to today's illustrious topic of enlightenment. that topic is: the zucchini family tree. being educated squirrel monkeys, we all realize that it is quite important to have some background on the subject before flinging ourselves headlong into the vast gulf of enlightenment. so gather up your eating utensils and prepare to take a trip with me (in your mind, of course.). last week, using a spork and a rusty piece of a soda bottle, i dug up what appeared to be a zucchini. much to my surprise, it was. this interested me so much that i immediately got on the internet to research it and was promptly kicked off by Max von Cruusha, the owner of the computer, who also yelled at me for digging up his backyard. this set me back several days in my work, but also brings the story up to the current time, where we are now. that's enough background, i think.
you may be surprised to learn that the relationships between zucchinis and their relatives are much like those of humans. (i wasn't, but you may be.) after all, when you are green and forced to live in the same spot for all of your life, you need to have emotional support. i don't know this from experience, but it's pretty much common sense. there's not much more i can say, the research speaks for itself.
once again, it is time to catch up on all those crucial podiatrist appointments you may have missed. that's right, we have come to the end of our magnanimous velocity. so step around waxed floors, and for heaven's sake, wear a helmet when you're dusting those shelves! remember kids, bensaki sez, "when life gives you natural disasters, make soup."
