    465 couples? That’s 936 people. How could they all get close enough to that single piece of spaghetti at the same time to get a bite?

    I started cooking spaghetti.

    Just to pasta time.

    Then I decided I wanted to try Spaghetti in Italy to see if it was any better, but it tasted the same.

    Though it was a bit cold from the flight over.

    I asked the flight attendant what she thought was in the spaghetti sauce.

    She said she thought it might be plane pasta.

    I think Lady and the Tramp did the best job of romantic spaghetti eating.

    I never really thought about how spaghetti came about, but was astounded to learn that it’s not really made, but actually grown — see link below:

    Kissing bugs carry a parasite called Trypanosoma cruzi. They pick up this parasite by feeding on a person or an animal with a T. cruzi infection. They feed and excrete at the same time, which sometimes enters the persons mouth. The parasite then lives in the kissing bug’s intestines and feces. Yuck!

    I have always loved pasta on the menus as it has the highest profit margins, ingredient wise. But they are taking it a bit too far. How much did they charge with included gratuity and VAT?

    Gwyneth Paltrow sells candles through her Goop store called “Smells Like My Vagi*a” and “Smells Like My Orgas*”, and they sell out fast.

    So if you see a kissing bug in the daytime does that mean you’re safe? And why do they look like assassin bugs?

    Some quick takes:

    “I gotta see if Yankee Candles has those Hippo Poop fragrant candles in stock for my favorite enemies for this day of loving your enemies ❤️”

    “I don’t kiss very often but when I do, I prefer Nocturnal Kissing Bugs.” said the most annoying person in the world.

    “Vapiano has very stingy and cheap patrons. Are you sure they’re not Scots?”

    Valentine’s Day in 2024? That’s today. The San Antonio zoo? That’s 27 miles down the road from me. How did RBION get that information about the Hippo Poop candle before I heard about it? I think maybe the zoo fed it (the information) to them (the RBION folks).

    If you can’t get a hippopotamus for Christmas,the next best thing is now available.

    But why buy hippo poop when San Antonio has bat guano coming out of its ears?

    Why hippo poop? Does it smell better or worse than the other animals poop at the zoo?
