Mise en scene: The day before my birthday. Me and my old roommate Marty convene at Cleveland's West Side Market.
What could all those spices possibly be used for?...What?...Diabolical?...Boiling??
Later, at my old apartment, now occupied by my pal Bruce...
Hm...Corn...Potatoes...Andouille Sausage...Herbs...Lemons...
Is that a gas line under that pot?
My goodness...It is!...
