A Bizarre Introductory Paragraph from the Economist:

THERE is a story about a science professor giving a public lecture on the solar system. An elderly lady interrupts to claim that, contrary to his assertions about gravity, the world travels through the universe on the back of a giant turtle. “But what supports the turtle?” retorts the professor. “You can’t trick me,” says the woman. “It’s turtles all the way down.”

In other news, Taco Bell is still delicious.

That's actually a pretty famous anecdote. I think Bertrand Russell used to tell it. That's not to say it's not bizarre.

Taco Bell is disgustingly delicious. I still feel sick from our late night adventure on Sunday.

I'm sorta relieved to learn that you two don't eat delicious and beautiful food for every meal.
