@ QI –
Hmmm … mmmmh … umhmmm …
Sorry … can’t speak … eating delicious birthday cake that just arrived in the post from Mumbai. No return address, so I assumed it was from you. Thanks!
And thanks for your many visits and entertaining comments over the past year.
My favorite is…
e.e. cummings throwing up in restaurant
I wonder why someone, anyone, could possibly be searching for that, and what information they were hoping to find. Did e.e. cummings famously puke in a restaurant at some point? Perhaps I should Google it to find out…
@ Conall –
So, did he puke or not?
The Google link just sent him back to Chicken Monkey Dog, so the mystery remains…
After a bit of research, I didn’t find any evidence that e.e. cummings ever threw up in a restaurant, but he did at least write a poem about a guy covered in puke.
Note, I did not find any evidence that suggested Mr. Cummings did NOT vomit in a restaurant either.
@ Conall –
Thanks for that. I’ve never vomited in a restaurant either.
However, I have vomited in a restaurant parking lot. I was about 8 or 9, maybe even 10 or 12. I had a bowl full of spaghetti bolognese. When the meal was over, I suddenly felt ill. I went outside for some fresh air and then … suddenly … up came dinner.

I toast you with a tumbler of Glenfiddich 18. ¡Viva la revolución!

Keep the insanity coming!
