The thing about Abe Froman was that it was

  • The thing about Abe Froman was that it was all about sausages. Sausage this and sausage that. One time I said, "knock, knock?" And he said, "Sausage, now shut your mouth."
  • "Is it knockworse, or knockworst?" I wish I could find the missing link & solve this puzzle. Abe was getting fed up with the conversation though and said, "Stop grilling me!"
  • The Halloween party became a measles quarantine with 50 beds in the house. This was 1953, when my sister was six. The six gallons of apple cider cost 50 cents each then! Now, it
  • costs an arm & a leg. That is only because it is Halloween though. No, the point is the price of apple cider has really gone up since the last quarantine in 1953 & we're gonna need
  • to stock up. Either that or switch to vodka. I'm in. I don't mind telling you, I would drink a gallon of vodka a day if my liver would allow it. So fingers crossed re: cider shorta
  • I drink to forget. To become a better version of myself. one that isn't so hideous, one that people actually like. That I actually like. We'll die anyway. Right?
  • But nothing is forgotten, nothing dies, and one only drinks from the eyes of grasshoppers.
  • here is the proof. the night turned into itself with devotion. in my
  • pocket, the ice cream cone I had been saving for desert had melted and left an embarrassing stain on my lederhosen. "Gott im Himmel," I whispered to whatever deity was listening,
  • Die Lederhosen—” God thundered in a gentle feminine voice, “ENOUGH WITH THE Deutsche, and who puts an ice cream cone in the pocket of their leather shorts? Did I make you stupid?”
