BROOKINGS HARBOR PILOT
FOR WHAT
IT'S WORTH
By Clifford Rowe
Ju st th e o th e r night I attended
a banquet On retu rn in g home, I
had no sooner opened the door
th an the lady of the house popped
h e r favorite $64.000 question,
"W hat did you have to e a t ? ”
Now th e dear lady and I h a w
been joined for b e tte r or worse
for nigh on tw enty years; and in
all th a t tim e w henever I have
ea te n out, I have alw ays faced an
Inquisition of this so rt on my re
tu rn . And although m y answ er is
alw'ays th e same, “I don’t rem em

gives u p hoping.
The sad tru th in regard to the
problem is th a t provision for the
proper appreciation and enjoy
m ent of food was evidently left
out of my physical blueprint when
th e prelim inary' planning w as be
ing done. And 1 am really sorry.
I envy th o re m ales who can
readily drool over a tasty dinner;
I feel an outcast, one to be sh u n
ned and avoided, as I h ear them
extol anent the various delect
able dishes it has been their good
fg rtu n e to consume; and I find
m yself cursing the fate that de
prives m e o ftbe ecstacies which
seem to be theirs.
The b ru ta l tru th it th a t as far
as I am concerned, food is some
th in g w ith which one stokes the
firebox in order to keep the old
steam • at the proper pressure
point in order to get the most
efficient service. I tru ly bolive th at

around 1948 to conduct a sim ilar

According to th e story in the

closed th e ir office th ere in 1952,

As a result, I am well aw are
