Seizure Salad

Sounds Like He Was Hungry (For Punishment)

Consternation over the hunt for a vegan burglar in Somerset, Pennsylvania. Someone kicked in the door of a man's apartment, stuck a knife in the door and took a chilled salad from his refrigerator. The man told investigators someone broke into his apartment while he went to a nearby tavern. Nothing but the salad was missing, police said.

Maybe he was entertaining guests and needed a salad to serve ASAP? Hmmmm.....

C'mon, you mean to tell me you never wanted a salad so bad you could just kick a door down and take it by force??

David, I found a spot for you on my sidebar. That's sidebar, not salad bar. Grrrr...

Oh my. Definitely not a carnivore.

What do you suppose they meant by affordable?

Deborah Gamble said...

Sounds like a perfectly sane thing for a hungry vegetarian to do. What is all the hulabaloo?

Lin said...

A carnivore would never do such a thing but I can see where a true veggie-might. Especially if corn was involved.

Hi Brian,

Maybe he was a priest and meant to say ``Lettuce pray''.

Either way, he left his knife behind!

Cheers

Hi Craver VII,

Sure have! Kinda every day.

Terrific stuff - I'll add you to my salad bar, I mean, sidebar!

Cheers

Hi Catmoves,

Thinks for the tip. Will check it out shortly. Broadband for the bush has suddenly become an election platform!

Hi Debbie,

Thanks for reining us all in and providing that sense of perspective.

I'll just slink off quietly (with my salad bowl) and hope that nobody notices!

Cheers

Hi Lin,

Oh, nice line, NICE line. Veggie-might! Goes straight to every true blue Australian heart.

Maybe that's why my novel is called `Vegemite Vindaloo'!

Cheers
