Basic Instructions by Scott Meyer for January 03, 2011

Phlegmish Sprouts would have been worse.

I like brussels sprouts.

Yum, I love brussels sprouts!

The were invented by Russel.* Remember him?

They used be Russels Sprouts but somebody screwed up. The label at the vegetable stand had a weird smudge at the left side that looked a lot like a B.

Mrs. Winkle asked the proprietor for Brussels Sprouts and the name stuck. Simple Simple!

.* I always hated him for that!

I make a point of only bringing soda to potlucks. It’s better for everyone. Trust me. Oh, and Scott’s got the copyright date wrong :)

^ Amin, he didn’t get the copyright date wrong… See here :)

@GES Who Yes, I do admit he got it right in that one ;)

I always bring a covered dish. One of these days, I should probably bring some food in it.

chips or cookies, someone will eat them

Anyone feel like sending Scott lots of letters about how he has the copyright date wrong? I’ve been having a strange urge to do that ever since the the idea was introduced in December.

This one is hysterical!
