CSI Salad Bar
The Scene: A crowded salad bar downtown on a wet Thursday lunch hour
The Perp: A stodgy "person" of indeterminate sex
The Crime: Holding up the whole goddam line by inspecting each spinach leaf, every individual pea, every solitary carrot slice before making a choice. Forcing a respectable middle aged civil servant to refrain from screaming "It's a piece of broccoli, not a religious conviction. Move it." Aggravated aggravation.
The Verdict: Justifiable homicide.

ReplyDelete"I'm a saucy boozehound. Yes, my ladyhamper is dirty!"
darling, I might have known you would recognize the Dickson. And my favorite line in the whole Christmas spectacular is "My lady hamper..." I mutter it under my breath in dull meetings from time to time.
