my dear sweet jet.

you and i both know i win the malnutrition contest hands down.


although i did gain about a pound and a half this past weekend with all the food i was forced to eat with the family. that brought me up to a whopping 138 pounds. not bad for a 5'11 kid.

my most darling friend evan,

i gained nothing over thanksgiving, and you still weigh 15 pounds more than i do. you're still too skinny for your height, though. i'd even bet you a dollar that you weigh more than steve.

if we were to compare eating habits, i bet we'd both technically only have a couple weeks left to live.

so, since neither of us can beat the other when it comes to malnutrition, let's see who can get laid the most in that time (beats playing Risk).

contests are fun.

regards,
jet.

all joking aside, though--what's the best way [diet-wise] to eat all the things i need to, while paying as little as possible?

Standard Indian Buffet - lunch is $6.95 I believe and worth every penny. Are you opposed to all meat or just cow? Because the tandoori chicken fresh to your table is a big plus.

My god, my mouth is watering just thinking about it.

i am an ovolactovegitarian, which means that i consume dairy products like milk, eggs, and cheese--but the line is drawn there. no meat, at all. also, no gelatin. i have been known to occasionally eat fish when i am in dire need of the nutrients, but it makes me feel shame.

regards,
jet.

jet.

My girlfriend is one of those right down to the gelatin. Is that a real word? Ill have to let her know if it is.

beef,
mike

hey, that's a good word jet. what if you also eat a lot of bread, like bagels with dairy products melted onto them?

is that still cool?

secondly, the "getting laid" game is not fun because we both know i'm having difficulties in that area.

actually, i misspelled it because i'm stupid, but yes, "ovolactovegetarian" is a real word.

dairy products of whatever kind are allowable by me in any form, although i try to not eat stuff like cottage cheese. however, if steve made something with cottage cheese, i'd eat it. that's not bias, it's just an exception.

comrade evan, i gave you advice on how to get laid, remember?
here, i'll say it again:

step one: become audio engineer

step two: develop good recording technique

step three: be available

the chicks will come running. and they will all be very, very, very hot for you. trust me.

regards,
jet.

had a really, really horrible corned beef sandwich today that i couldn't
even finish. it prompted me to rate my top three usual outlets in the
city of chicago for the delicious variety of corned beef. feel free to
provide your input:

1. manny's deli
2. maller's deli
3. the berghoff

i am only one man. i can not try all of the corned beef.

I am here for you, Brian! Call on me when you need me. Just tell me where and what, and I will eat it and report back. Promise.

One to add to the list is Fanny's Delicatessen on Touhy in Skokie. They are right near New York Bagel and Biali. Yum.

I've come up with a good invent on my own for scrambled eggs...

-three fresh farmer eggs
-add lemon pepper, chopped onion, a little basil
-pour fresh salsa over the top, serve

it's delicious!
