Things I learned while looking through the window of a greek restaurant
See how much you learn if you just take time to pay attention to the world...
- Looking eccentric doesn't make you interesting.
- Looking extravagant doesn't make you wealthy.
- Acting annoyed doesn't make you important; it just makes you annoying.
- Quoting literature, movies, television, or music doesn't make you intelligent or witty.
- Speaking loudly doesn't mean people should like to listen to you or that you are saying anything interesting or important.
- Drug dealers think they're smooth, but they're not.
- Drug addicts seem very pissed off when their dealer is late.
- The head chef will treat you extra well if you loudly compliment his cooking, and he'll even give you extra food to take home.
- No child can resist jumping in a puddle.
- Good dogs roaming the streets by themselves can obey leash laws by holding their leash handles in their mouths.
- If all I had to eat for the rest of my life was good bread, I'd be all right with that.
- Good olive oil makes anything taste mediteranean.
- People who hide in bushes don't look suspicious at all. Really, I mean that; it seems so natural to see a grown man hunched down behind a large potted shrub while looking around to see if anybody notices him.
- I have no need for a fast car and don't want one, but it's very hard to resist drooling over a Lamborghini at a stop light.
- Senior citizens who wear funky hats, mp3 players, and tshirts with liberal activist slogans are cool.
- Foreigners who try to speak English are cute.
- Children who speak foreign languages are cute and seem way smarter than I.
- Everything tastes better with cheese. (Hmmmm, double fudge sunday with cheese? strawberry banana smoothie with cheese? Cheerios with cheese? I'm sure they must be delicious.)
- A city filled with fog at night is beautiful.
- Anytime you see a bunch of police cars with flashing lights on a bridge and a bunch of cops looking over the side of the bridge, you probably don't want to be hanging out under that bridge.
