"She used to put pork chops in her purse... wrap them up in a napkin and take them home. And she'd tell them she was only going to have half a cup of coffee, so she only wanted to pay for half a cup of coffee..."
-chicks at breakfast place, talking about some ridiculously cheap person
Isn't coffee, like, 95 cents??? I can't imagine having the smell of pork chops wafting out of my purse... yick.

That's not just cheap, it's STUPID. "Mr. Waiter or Bus Boy, can I have this pork chop wrapped to go? Thanks!"

One of my wife's ex-co-workers and sometimes friend (total flake) is even cheaper than that. When she went to england she slept in train stations and would eat food left behind by people at restaurants after they'd left. Yick.

Was the person old? I worked at the Hilton and once at a wedding a whole table of pensioners got out of their bags (that they had carried through the wedding) a role of cellophane to wrap up the spare food from their plates. I think it stems from war times when you made the most of what you had.
Anyway, I love your blog, it's the best idea I've seen for a blog yet, although sorry, i forgot about it for a while, but now I'm back.

Can it be? Is it really? Jamie? (assuming the affirmative) Hi and I found this blog as it is linked to your SPS webpage. This is damien by the way. I haven't heard from you for a loooooong time. Are you at LM?
I just wanted to drop a line to say hi and if it really is you, you can write me back at dswine@asu.edu (not my "normal" email account, but appropriate for internet posting). yes, i'm still at asu! no, i'm not doing any physics. i'm actually working at the new center for infectious diseases here on hiv.
if you don't receive this comment for 6 months and find it and wonder if you should still write me, please do!
damien
