Beware of Those Fajitas
     According tot he AP, a man in New Jersey is suing a restaurant. Why? Here is what happened. He ordered a plate of fajitas. You know, those things that come in a very hot frying pan full of onion and pepper slices, plus slices of some kind of generally acceptable dead animal, or tofu for today’s health conscious but texture and taste challenged diners. The pan is sizzling with hot grease that is splattering all over the place. If you’re wearing anything good, you might as well kiss it off, because it will never be the same. This man had his order set before him on the table, and then he lowered his head over the sizzling pan of fajitas to pray. Before he finished his prayer, he suffered burns to his face.

     Fajitas are good, therefore their popularity. But they do require respect and know how.

     Like I said, he sued the restaurant. The court “found the food posed an ‘open and obvious’ danger.”

     So, next time you’re in La Mexicano and you order fajitas, say your prayer of thanks before the food arrives, even though that might be a little presumptuous.

Anyone For Some Cheese

     As reported by the AP, in Summerfield, FL. Some thieves stole a tractor-trailer filled with $85,000 worth of shredded mozzarella cheese. This cheese was bound for some pizza emporium. The thieves had to bring their own tractor to make the heist. The question that comes to mind is WHY?

     Did the thieves really like mozzarella cheese? Did they hold some kind of grudge against the pizza place? Did they have a market for this cheese? Did they only want the trailer? After all, by itself it’s worth $62,000.

     If it was the trailer they wanted, imagine their surprise when they opened it up for the first time and found multiple tons of cheese.

So you Floridians, be on the lookout---if you have someone come to your door with a cooler, selling mozzarella cheese, you may be face-to-face with the cheese thief, or then it might be some crazy person, or very possibly both.
