...peculiar set of chronic impairments, which go back 30 years. My inordinate fear of male clowns, for example, especially those with heavy rouge on their cheeks that only partly conceals their stubble. Or my nagging suspicion that some short-order cooks really do blow their nose in the soup, and far more often than their customers realize. Also, I have a habit, in public rest rooms, of drying my hands on the inside of my shirt rather than using those wall-mounted dryers, which I am convinced can spread tuberculosis. Finally, last year, for precisely 6 months, 13 days...

Phillips had stumbled upon one of those frequent-flyer promotions in which airlines team with credit-card companies and other partners. The deal, since withdrawn, was this: buy 10 Healthy Choice products and get 500 miles--or 1,000 miles for purchases made before June 1999. Phillips tossed soup and popcorn into his basket like an end-of-the-world fanatic, but went apoplectic when he saw chocolate-fudge pudding cups at 25[cents] a pop. A mere $62.50 worth, he quickly calculated, would buy 25,000 miles...

...Propped on the table, leaning against the banister, stands a white board displaying the day's menu. Tonight's menu? Rosemary beans, rice, cabbage soup, corn bread, and spinach salad. There are two kinds of tapioca pudding--one labeled "vegan w/o eggs" and the other "milk w/eggs." Carrying an eclectic assortment of dishes, students and guests find places along the table in the dining room, a table so long that it seats 35. Glasses and pitchers of water and juice are placed every few feet along its length...

...Boston Chowda Co. offahs more than just soup and misspellings. Sandwiches and wrayaps ah also available. The lobstah roll is a highlight. Succulent chunks of fine lobstah ah mixed with mayo to terrific effect. If theyah's any problem with the sandwiches, it's the chewy French rolls--they fit the roasted chicken well, but make the lobstah roll end up tasting a tad too bready. Perhaps a hot dog bun would be less of an intrusion on the tendah taste of the lobstah...
