I have to mention here that practically everyone in the line was by now enthralled with my story. Horrified, she asked if I woke up in the hospital because I had been poisoned. I told her no, that I'd been sitting in the street licking my butt when a car hit me. . Jackie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 31, 2006 Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 This was cute, but there can be an ounce of truth to this---people eating pet food. I used to work for a large publishing company. For a week straight, I noticed in our kitchenette there was an empty can of cat food with a fork in it. The company was located in a high traffic business complex, so I figured no one was feeding a cat outside. For a couple weeks I hung around the kitchenette at lunch time to see who would be the can owner. We had a lot of foreign tech people working there and I thought, perhaps, it was a cultural thing to eat this stuff. In different countries, what are normal eats for one group is bizarre to another. Low and behold, it was one of our senior editors. The guy was making loads of money, always came into the office unkept, food-stained t-shirts with holes in them, etc. He was eating the cat food, because it was a " cheap meal. " I'm gonna hate to see this guy in his retirement years....... Gav __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
