Last Kiss by John Lustig for October 13, 2021

Be careful. I hear that those gardens are the pits and contain a lot of seedy types. I’d think that you would prefer a more red-blooded place to go.

Unlimited soup, salad, and bread sticks, anyone?

John, for some strange reason, this reminds me of an old audio recording of a send-up of Soap opera. Only two words used in the whole skit! “John, Marsha” by Stan Freberg 1951. Hope you find and enjoy.

Oh for overpriced frozen dinners and salad…

It’s a bitter-sweet experience……Money doesn’t guarantee happiness, however, the next stop, you get unlimited amounts of salad and rolls!

of course, eating the poor is no choice either because it means eating poorly…

I’m always wondering which part to eat first and which I would save for last.

I know some people who look like that after eating at Olive Garden.

Their love for ketchup over helms them!

A long time ago when living in San Francisco we took friends visiting from the Midwest to North Beach for dinner one evening. They were amazed and their palates delighted. They said that “This certainly is not The Olive Garden.” The Mrs replied, “Thank god, and Angelo, (the chef) for that.”

Greed and Privilege…the couple that live nextdoor.

I get no kick from champagne,

Mere alcohol doesn’t thrill me at all,

So tell me why should it be true,

That I get a kick out of eating you.

(Apologies to Frank Sinatra)

And somehow no matter how much you eat, once Entitlement Hunger settles into your gut, you are never satisfied, you always want more.

However, Ms. Olive Garden plans to be out that night…

Herbivores have the best tasting meat. Next time, make sure those rich and privileged are vegetarians before chowing down.

Yeah – at least with Olive Garden, you don’t have to wait for the “after” to get the awful taste………

“Eat the rich”. I like the Krokus version.

Eating the rich? Sounds like a socialist manifesto.

At Olive Garden, try the Cibo Ricco.

Too much grease.
