one of the bartenders told me there are flip flops that have beer openers on the soles. ONE ON EACH SOLE. so basically, you could be walking around with swimming trunks and flip flops and still have the ability to open a beer. this is the greatest thing ever invented. seriously. the greatest. this is some serious technology. it's much like cold fusion--only better, because cold fusion lacks the capacity to open a beer or be on the bottom of a flip flop.
i wonder who it was that invented the beer-opening flip flop. i hope that guy (and you know it's a guy) is a multi-millionaire. you know? like some millionaires, i'm like, "i don't like that guy. i don't like the cut of his jib." but this guy i'd be like, "get those flip flops over here! we're gonna have a couple of beers!"
i went to Marco last night after work. my friend derek is the G.M. there and it was my first time checking out the place. it was great: cozy, intimate and the food was amazing. i had the eggplant caponata: a delicious blend of eggplant, peppers, olives and capers; caprese salad; figs wrapped in prosciutto and stuffed with blue cheese and finally tagliatelle bolognese--oh, and a few glasses of Costera Cannonau di Sardegna Argiolas to pair. Cannonau is a red grape from Sardinia. It actually has more antioxidants than almost any other red wine, which is significant when you consider that the sardinians are some of the longest lived people on earth! Cannonau is very trendy now--like Jane Austen or Chipotle peppers. It's also very delicious. Similar to Chianti: cherry and chocolate on the nose with an iron-like minerality, but juicier and more fruit-forward. excellent food wine...
enjoy this beautiful new england summer (eyes rolling.)
waiting for the cork screw cross-trainer,
