Things I Have Learned Recently

A dash of oregano is a fine addition to a ham sandwich.

*

Every time I type the word “addition” it accidentally comes out “addiction” the first time.

*

Putting said sandwich in the oven for five minutes at 450 degrees, however, turns the bread black.

*

It’s best not to double up on the creatine drink samples they give away at the GNC store. They tend to make a fellow gassy.

*

Like the last time I was unemployed (when Yahoo laid me off), I’ve developed a mild case of “like” for the chirpy hostess of some daytime TV show.

Last time around it was Jill Cordes, host of the Food Network’s show the Best Of.

This time it’s the host of the Travel Channel’s Great Hotels, Samantha Brown.

*

Cordes, by the way, is now on a show called My First Place on HGTV.

This is going to be a long five weeks.
