WITandWISDOM(tm) - July 4, 2001 ~~~~~~~ THOUGHTS: "Your ability to get along well with others will determine your happiness and success as much as any other factor." - Brian Tracy Source: Quotes From The Masters, http://MailRoom.DailyInbox.Com/ ~~~~~~~ SPECIAL THOUGHTS: ~~~~~~~ THIS & THAT: LE MENU DE LA FOURTH From the Creative Kitchen of Chef AsA A specially chosen selection of the finest meat and meat by-products brought to a virtually perfect roundness, encased in our very own petroleum-based disposable wrapper which can serve as your souvenir of this evening. An even more exotic blending of meat by-products delicately seasoned with a piquancy that appeals to the more adventuresome palate. The flavor enhanced by individually sliced peppercorns noirs. Only contented bovines who are naturalized citizens are recruited to give of themselves in succulent square slices adding a geometric flavor to your repast. A baker's blend of monocalcium phosphate, calcium sulfate, ammonium sulfate, potassium bromate, ascorbic acid, mono-and diglycerides, sodium stearoyl-2-lactylate, and calcium propionate. A small amount of flour, guaranteed to be devoid of flavor and nutrients, added for colour and texture. Slight extra charges for the quite rare portions browned completely on one side. From Hebraic history, our finest unburnt offering of leavened bread gently enhanced with the seed of the rye. Frisbee shaped portions of the fire engine vegetable so delightfully used as an expression of recognition for speakers and teachers. Transported in by night convoy from Florida to insure firmness rather than juiciness and elegant palatability. Cajun designed salade muffaleta lovingly compiled in the kitchen of Chef Asa, and allowed to marinate to a tantalizing degree of intoxication. Tender, young gherkins Verde properly aged to the peak of perfect flavor under the direction of Chef Heinz who "will sell no gherk before its time." Red-rimmed white slices of that herb of the lily family which will tickle the olfactory senses of your valentine. Sauce de love apple. The prime puree of dull tomatoes so thick it brings to mind the essence of lava. L'essence de Dijon. Capturing the purity and power of sinus clarifiers. Our own homegrown mild-mannered jam derived from the mayo berry is selected as first choice for the perfect accoutrement by most of our friends. Salade du jour. Chef Krogiere, with his highest compliments, sends in a designer planned styrofoam vessel a delicious confection combination chosen from a selection of flavoured gelatins, fruit bits, fluffs, and fillers. Cooled and blended with generous amounts of aqua and ozone. Bananas marinated in hot impure oxygen, grapes reduced to their nourishing essence, slivered linings of coconut shells, choice inner meats from selected large seeds all make for a nourishing dessert that is really a handful. Your own very free choice of cola sans liquor, selected by a mere flick of the finger. Tiny extra charge for cooling and storage in the big red machine. Your choice of after dinner mints with more than a touch of retsyn, or chlorophyll Verde, or simethicone.

Then move through space towards the Earth in successive orders of magnitude until you reach a tall oak tree just outside the buildings of the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory in Tallahassee, Florida. After that, begin to move from the actual size of a leaf into a microscopic world that reveals leaf cell walls, the cell nucleus, chromatin, DNA and finally, into the subatomic universe of electrons and protons. http://micro.magnet.fsu.edu/primer/java/scienceopticsu/powersof10/ind ex.html Submitted by Asa Sparks |
