Monty by Jim Meddick for April 30, 2024

O’Neill Oatmeal to prepare for a long day’s journey.

Before the movie was produced we had a paperback copy of the book in your high school library, and one had to get a permission slip signed by a parent to check it out. I did. A year later they announce the movie JAWS. Wow. The movie left SO much out. Half or more of the story is missing, and who lives or dies is different too. Read the book someday if you haven’t yet.

It kinda bugs me that Kafka Krispies aren’t so great for your appetite either

it’s pronounced “Baggovut”

You can hit two birds with one stone with Harry Harrison’s Soylent Green Chunks.

Nowadays it would be Bassehuvudet, bah seh hoo voo det, Base Head. Sounds like a nobleman name or possibly a soldier name. Maybe one of the swedes from Grand Duchy of Finland that worked for the Czar.

Good job! You pronounced it exactly right.

Wash it down with James Joyce Juice.

Robert Benchley (Peter’s Grandfather) would make better breakfast reading, Start your day with some laughs, occasionally surreal.

Benchley Bites is the perfect name, however

On the other hand, I wouldn’t mind a few “Sherman’s Lagoon” strips on the back of a cereal box.

Is that a dorsal fin I see in my cereal bowl?

Monty’s gonna hurl! :)

Tolstoy Toasties??

On the back of “that Scottish play” Breakfast Haggis Puffs

“Is this a dagger which I see before me,

The handle toward my hand? Come, let me clutch thee.

Aww, it’s just a tablespoon, got all dramatic for nothing"

Tried to work up something around “Froot Loops” but drew a blank. Sad. Anyone?
