The Opposite of Salad

Julius Caesar, contrary to popular opinion, did, in fact, create the Caesar salad.


The common (née popular) opinion that he didn't is quite possibly the largest red herring in the history of man. Bigger than the Da Vinci Code, bigger than the... well, something else designed to throw us off the trail.


But, on a blustery night in August, Caesar threw down a plate of salad leaves, toasted bread, parmesan cheese, and caesar dressing, and thus was born the greatest cover up in the history of man.



But we'll get into that more... soon.



disclaimer:

Don't worry, as I know you probably are quite worried, but we are coming back to the serial. I promise. Well, promise might be a strong word. I highly suggest that we will come back to the serial.

Of course, when I say serial (and link to it), I mean, of course, as you might have guessed, from the link, the one about the hapless baseball player. Not the mysteriously budding one that you see right before your eyes this week, in which we tell the greatest story ever told. Which we won't bother linking to, because it's right up above. Go on, take a peek up... See? There.

Sure, it's short, which may be why you missed it. And the mystery just oozing off of it may have also thrown you. You may, rightly so, be bewildered, bewitched, bothered, not necessarily in that order. Your very soul may be quaking. Which is also okay.

But that's what's called a teaser. A teaser, stemming from the root word(s): "The Head Editor is taking a lovely Clare girl, hopefully soon to be in a bikini, and her short sidekick down to the beach for a lovely weekend or so, with the intention of providing entertainment for both the Clare girl, the bikini, and the sidekick."

And so he's off to start his packing and final planning.

Liked it.
Didn't like it.
Would have liked more references to bats.
I'd rather be boiled in vinegar.

Also, we'd like your take on the now missing Summary Feature (email subscribers can still access the summary for the current week's issue only and you can sign up here). How do you feel about the (now gone) summary feature on each issue?
I miss it.
Didn't use it.
What summary, you mean I can get away with reading less?
Don't miss it at all.
