    Now you’ve made me hungry.

  2. Michael Dougan on June 28th, 2009 at 9:08 am

    Pork, the one you love.

  3. Lucy Foley on June 28th, 2009 at 9:14 am

    Pork, the one you’re with.

  4. Coop on June 28th, 2009 at 9:17 am

    Wait a minute–where’s “Will bacon give my chihuahua pancreatitis?”

  5. Kathy Hilen-Smith on June 28th, 2009 at 9:27 am

    If you can’t pork the one you love, pork the one you’re with.

  6. Lucy Foley on June 28th, 2009 at 9:32 am

    Adam? Where’s “Will bacon give my chihuahua pancreatitis?” Adam?

  7. Coop on June 28th, 2009 at 9:47 am

    “Yes, bacon will give your chihuahua pancreatitis.”

  8. Lucy Foley on June 28th, 2009 at 9:54 am

    Sorry Coop, your quotation marks don’t fool me. Until I hear from Adam the whole topic is moot to me.

    I spent a number of minutes picking the bacon out of my chicken caesar salad yesterday. Just so you know I’m pretty neutral. My feeling for bacon on this occasion is purely aesthetic. Also community based.

  9. Dave Vogt on June 28th, 2009 at 10:18 am

    And there is bacon in a fisted glove.

  10. Lucy Foley on June 28th, 2009 at 10:19 am

    Good lord.

  11. Sheila Ryan on June 28th, 2009 at 11:37 am

    I just hollered “Let’s make some bacon!” out the back door to nobody in particular and the world in general.

  12. Sheila Ryan on June 28th, 2009 at 11:37 am

    No reply save the soughing of wind in the trees.

  13. Lucy Foley on June 28th, 2009 at 11:47 am

    Would you like to fry the world a pork?

  14. Lucy Foley on June 28th, 2009 at 11:47 am

    In perfect hamony?

  15. Sheila Ryan on June 28th, 2009 at 11:56 am

    Think of your fellow man
    Lend him a helping hand
    Put a little pork in your heart

  16. Adam Cooper on June 28th, 2009 at 12:08 pm

    I don’t know from pancreatitis or chihuahuas, but I have known bacon to lend a King Charles spaniel an unnatural profundity & a sense of awe & wonder. Hope that helps!

    [...] Schinken essen oder nicht — ein Flussdiagramm. [...]

  18. Lucy Foley on June 28th, 2009 at 1:07 pm

    That helps a lot Adam, on the topic of spaniels, a natural kind of animal. However, if you can show me an unnaturally profound and awed chihuahua, I’ll be happy to slip you some salame. Hell, I’ll send you some prosciutto. The good stuff.

  19. Lucy Foley on June 28th, 2009 at 1:09 pm

    Oh God that’s so great, we’re linked to in Germany! Hello Germany! Are you ready to PORK?

  20. Sheila Ryan on June 28th, 2009 at 1:16 pm

    An unnaturally profound and awed chihuahua.

    Lucy (and Adam), because I don’t watch television, I was the last person in the entire world to know about the Taco Bell chihuahua and “Yo quiero Taco Bell”.

    Imagine my consternation some years ago when I walked by a ‘Christian chain bookstore’ here in the united state of Illinois and saw a T-shirt emblazoned with a faintly fish-eye image of a chihuahua and the legend

    YO QUIERO JESUS

  21. Lucy Foley on June 28th, 2009 at 1:22 pm

    Ok but that doesn’t count as awe. That’s just good marketing. America is great for that kind of stuff. Chihuahuas for Jesus and all that. You guys rock. I’m still wondering if we can get a tour in Germany on the basis of being ein Flussdiagramm (with great breakbeats).

  22. Amy Mabli on June 28th, 2009 at 1:30 pm

    Today is a day when I want it a little bit chewy.

  23. Sheila Ryan on June 28th, 2009 at 1:47 pm

    True, Lucy. I was dumbstruck. Not awed.

    Aw.

  24. Sheila Ryan on June 28th, 2009 at 1:49 pm

    United States of the Dumbstruck Demographic.

  25. Lucy Foley on June 28th, 2009 at 2:15 pm

    It is good to recognise the difference between aw and awe. Many people fall at this hurdle.

  26. Lucy Foley on June 28th, 2009 at 2:16 pm

    Amy: then bacon is done!

  27. Adam al-Cooper on June 29th, 2009 at 1:21 pm

    Don’t hold your breath on the chihuahua, Lucy. I love me some prosciutto, but can’t stand to go near chihuahuas. Why do we all so blithely include them in the category “dogs” when they so clearly don’t belong there?

  28. Lucy Foley on June 29th, 2009 at 2:32 pm

    They are (sigh) pigdogs.

  29. Amy Mabli on June 29th, 2009 at 3:17 pm

    Chihuahuas should fall into the Rodentia order of mammals. They goddamn deserve it.

  30. Lucy Foley on June 29th, 2009 at 3:18 pm

    The whole thing is terribly unfortunate.

  31. Amy Mabli on June 29th, 2009 at 3:48 pm

    A neighborhood chihuahua named Dolce was tiny and black and looked more like a spider on a leash than a dog.

  32. Sheila Ryan on June 29th, 2009 at 3:55 pm

    Amy, that is perfect. I have always felt that chihuahuas and tarantulas were virtually interchangeable.

  33. Lucy Foley on June 29th, 2009 at 3:56 pm

    Christ. Give a tarantula a break.

  34. Amy Mabli on June 29th, 2009 at 3:58 pm

    I fear Sheila’s asking for a tarantula bite.

  35. Sheila Ryan on June 29th, 2009 at 3:58 pm

    True, Lucy. I got carried away. And I am an arachnophile, so the comparison did not really ring true.

  36. Amy Mabli on June 29th, 2009 at 4:01 pm

    This reminds me of an idea for a line of children’s dolls I had recently.

    Tranrantulas: transvestite spiders. Think of how many clothes and accessories could be sold for these plushy, adorable tranny arachnids!

  37. Sheila Ryan on June 29th, 2009 at 4:05 pm

    Amy. Do it! You must. You must.

    Way way way cuter than Cabbage Patch dolls.

    Tranny arachnids. That is the best. I want to collect ‘em all!

  38. Lucy Foley on June 29th, 2009 at 4:06 pm

    How would you organise that, conceptually? Have them dress up as daddy longlegs? Shellfish? I’m searching here.

  39. Amy Mabli on June 29th, 2009 at 4:22 pm

    Well, I suppose they would have parts you could add on or take off, jeez, I haven’t thought this through. Maybe they are closer to being just cross dressing spiders than transvestites. I need more research.

  40. Lucy Foley on June 29th, 2009 at 4:24 pm

    Cindy! We have a grant application to write!

  41. Amy Mabli on June 29th, 2009 at 4:28 pm

    I can’t get the image of 8 furry legs in tiny pumps out of my head.

  42. Sheila Ryan on June 29th, 2009 at 4:29 pm

    I don’t know much at all about spiders’ parts.

  43. Lucy Foley on June 29th, 2009 at 4:32 pm

    I think you might be onto something.

  44. India on June 29th, 2009 at 5:27 pm
  45. Lucy Foley on June 29th, 2009 at 5:37 pm

    They have to eat.

  46. Sheila Ryan on June 29th, 2009 at 5:40 pm

    I like the outpouring of pro-hawk, anti-ratdog sentiment.

  47. Lucy Foley on June 29th, 2009 at 5:43 pm

    There ain’t but one pony in that race, sugar.
