Double Entendre-for Travis

#1 Post by Spock » Thu Sep 11, 2008 6:12 am

Partial e-mail I got from somebody I sold 1/2 a beef too. It cracked me up.

"Thank you so much for providing us with meat - you just can't beat it!!"

I sure hope not. People can go blind that way.

Honest to gosh true, but in the early 1970's there was a meat shop on Georgia Avenue in Silver Spring (close to where I grew up) which had a HUGE sign with HUGE letters on its building that read

YOU CAN'T BEAT OUR MEAT!

I am sure it is true, because they would not have said it if it were not.

Which somehow reminds me of 'Portnoy's Complaint,' in which the narrator/protagonist has a close personal relationship with the liver that his mother plans to serve for dinner that night.

So this is where the movie American Pie got its idea.

And there is (still) the Culver City Meat Company which has these trucks driving around Los Angeles:
