Brads Column12/11/05I rarely remember dreams, and when I do, it's generally just
short little clips and bits. However the dream i had before waking today i
remember from start to finish, and i feel that everyone should know about it. 10/10/05Many a year ago, while camping up north, I stopped into an old favorite hang out of the teens that inhabited the area, a lakeside snack shop that I knew to have a very reasonable price on fried cheese curds, an item that I, along with many of my friends have a never-ending craving for. Upon receiving my curds and exchanging an ample amount of currency with the cashier, I, along with the similarly aged comrades I had spent the day with began to venture with our snacks to the picnic table at the edge of the lake. A stately young man whom I head met just hours earlier and who proved to be quite adept at the gentlemen's sport of ulitmate frisbee held the door open while the rest of our troupe filed through it. However I tarried as a jar at the condiments table caught my eye. "Hunn's Hot Sandwich Slices" it proclaimed in elegant yet strong letters across its paper label. I peered into the jar and to my surprise found a numerous cross-sections of dill pickle, cut lengthways. Slowly I reached in two of my nimble fingers and fished out a solitary slice. As it was several inches long and would not have easily fit into my mouth as it came into my possession, I promptly folded it in half and placed it upon my tongue. I chewed and swallowed the curious creation, which tasted as any other dill pickle, albeit a very good one, however, once the concoction had slid down my gizzard, greatly to my enjoyment, an spiciness of immense proportions filled my mouth. I rejoiced in the fullest and praised this Hunn for creating something that combines two of my favorite aspects of eating into one glorious invention. For the remainder of my stay, I returned almost hourly to eat a hot sandwich slice and made plans to purchase many for my own use upon returning home. Woe befell me when I discovered, upon my return, that none of the grocers in my region carried nor had heard of the products of the most wonderful Hunn. For years I scoured every new store that I encountered, to no avail. However, almost a year after giving up the ghost I moved to my current residence and absent mindedly began browsing the shelves of the local grocer. I scanned the pickle shelf for who could give me the best deal on a jar of dill pickles, when lo and behold a familiar label caught my eye! Hunn had returned to me, though the hot sandwich slices were nowhere to be found. Alas, but every closed door opens a window as I spied a jar of hot baby dills. Assuredly, they are not at all my original quarry, however they proved to be a manly pickle none-the-less.12/03/04One thing I really hate is when you see the face of someone you know was pooping in the bathroom. Let me clarify. You walk into the bathroom and start to pee, but you can hear the background noises coming from the stall behind you. The farting, the splashing, these are noises I never want to associate with an image. The pooper should definitely remain in the toilet stall until all other persons, minus those waiting to use said stall, have exited the bathroom. Please observe this etiquette from now on.10/04/04
