Serving as a catharsis (for me), a throwback (quite in vogue nowadays) and a caption contest (for you!), I invite you to read on…
In a year, a very fucked-up year, of loved ones lost, political and racial turmoil, lockdowns, of in-person friendships becoming distant memories, my beloved 16-year old business Hawaii Food Tours crashing and burning, and God knows only what else, a mere sliver/glimmer of hope teases.
{To carry on, sigh, it seems so fruitless, however, it’s the only thing to do when Life renders you a mere spectator.}
In the first photograph (taken tonight, 9 December, 2021) 
you see a McRib sandwich (the Bigfoot of the Fast Food industry) making its long and storied comeback.
The way the Media has covered the return of the McRib has been a hoot. It’s not Trump, it ain’t Covid, and it’s not racially charged. Oh joy, what a relief to those on the beat, and for you and me!
Adding to that, the divine porcine through-line, Yours Truly, just manhandled said McRib with a Napa Chardonnay.
Oh, and being a nice Jewish boy, on the eve of Hanukkah, can you dig the irony?
In this photograph,
…taken in March 2014, is something I caught both shit and shinola for…
In it you see a Filet ‘O Fish sandwich and a bottle of Dom Perignon.
Aside from the astute genius of this pairing, and the McDonald’s relationship and juxtaposition, what else do you see?
What would you care to contribute? Do you wish to communicate? The time is now.
I will, just to gild the lily, share with you that all of my personalities (dual identities, multiple personalities, consider the possibilities!) love you 💗
Now then, what say you, my friend?

2021… Yuck, what a year…
Don’t do bad things. Don’t steal my stuff. I have great attorneys. Mean, fierce types. Grrrr…
