Still waters run deep
If I had a dollar for every time I’ve heard someone say that
I’d probably have enough for an all you can eat buffet at Pablo’s Seafood
Diner. What? You were expecting me to
say millions? Have you seen the price list at Pablo’s?
Actually eating an unlimited buffet is an art by
itself.
Starting with clothing.
No not about fashion but just remember the clothes should be loose
fitting and enable expansion.
Pace yourself it’s not a sprint but a marathon.
Don’t forget the cash.
Pablo’s bouncers tend to dump non-paying clientele into the waterfront.

A very last minute entry from me for this week. I am very 'pro-castination' ;-) I just hope it's not a dud.

I'd love to read what you think about this post...
Millions are hard to understand. The price of a seafood bisque and a lobster thermidor is unattainable but imaginable
ReplyDeleteHe does not want millions but just enough to buy the buffet cos Pablo is cheap like that :-)
DeleteHa.. yes cash and loose fitting clothes sounds like a great advice
ReplyDeleteAlways leave room for expansion. Thanks for your comments Björn.
DeleteI always eat to quick at buffets, pacing yourself is so tricky :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks Iain, I guess slow and steady wins the buffet race.

I did have to practice before I got the technique right. Just kidding, thanks for reading and commenting.
DeleteDear Subroto,
ReplyDeleteHaving had lunch at a buffet today I'm relating. Nuff said. Love the story. You made me laugh.
Shalom,
Rochelle
I hope you got the maximum benefit out of the buffet then by following the right techniques ;-)
DeleteThanks for your comments Rochelle I am glad you like it.
Ah yes... what is it about buffets that gives us the okay to overstuff ourselves? And we all do it... sheesh.
ReplyDeleteI think everyone loves a bargain especially when its an 'all you can eat'. Hmm I think I need to go to one now...
DeleteI thought it was hilarious, and full of good advice :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Linda, I hope you will be putting the advice into practice ;-)
DeleteBeware the temptation of the buffet. I wish I could!
ReplyDeleteAlas Keith I can't resist it either, these are words of experience ;-)
DeleteAn all-you-can-eat seafood buffet sounds like heaven...Who needs millions if you have enough for a good meal?
ReplyDeleteExactly Penny, sometimes simple needs are more satisfying. All that the narrator wants is enough for the buffet. Thanks for reading and commenting.
