Staples of Your Diet


Ever get Chinese food to go? Sure. We all do, don’t we? Do they still use those folding cardboard boxes with the metal handle where you live? What’s with those things? Is it still 1975? Do they know we have microwaves and we can’t use those boxes in the microwave? And does anybody actually use the little handle? It looks like something from my daughter’s play kitchen or a purse for Barbie…

Around here they usually put the little boxes in an old fashioned paper bag. It’s a quality bag. And sometimes they put cardboard in the bottom of the bag. That’s a nice touch. But there’s one problem. They staple the bag shut. Yes, that’s right. Staple. So yeah, you’ve gotta open that bag, and, more times than not, when you open the bag that staple goes flying. You don’t know if it’s in your food or if it’s on your funky granite countertop somewhere…

My wife and I apparently don’t order enough food so we only get one fortune cookie. Do you share a fortune in those cases? Can two people have the same fortune?
