Tonight, to get my mind off our latest Holy War, I decided
to drive over
to the Distant and Mysterious East Side of Cleveland,
just about as far
as you can get, to try a newish Italian place called
Buca di Beppo.
If you have ever seen a native Ohioan, trust me, they
are usually very
large. See, there's nothing to do in this town for
6 months out of the
year except to eat. The local restaurants know this,
and have lately
started catering to the native Ohioan crowd.
This place I thought was pretty darn expensive. For
example, Three (3)
meatballs were $7.95. A SMALL plate of spaghetti and
meatball was
$11.99. I ordered such a plate.
The meatball was the size of a small canteloupe! The
serving of
spaghetti was approximately a gallon in size! And this
was the SMALL
size! No wonder the prices.
I did my best to clean my plate. After all, I was on
a strange side of
town, and I didn't want the other Native Ohioans to
suspect that
anything was different about me whatsoever. I even
ordered a slice of
cheesecake with raspberry sauce ($6.95) to finish things
off without
suspicion. The slice was one sixth of a cheesecake
that must have been
a yard and a half in diameter!
Right now, the meatball and the cheesecake are doing
battle with my
insides. I am of necessity belching and farting quite
a lot just to
keep everything safely inside and at body temperature.
A Jihad in my pants, I must say. But I ate so much,
I no longer give a
rat's ass about current events. I am quite concerned
about the outcome
of the battle in my guts at present. I'm so damn full,
I am not even
going to get into the bag of Cheez Doodles I bought.
If sleep comes
before evacuation is necessary (from either end) I think
I shall sleep a
very long time.
