But the weirdest thing was...

On the way home from the gym I saw, in the gutter at the corner of State and Clinton, a half eaten yam, teeth marks all around the jagged edge.

It was uncooked. Hard as a rock. I know: I tapped it with my foot just to be sure.

The thought of that yam made me very sad.

actually, would have made a great art piece. I should have nailed it to a red-painted piece of plywood and called it "This Is Not A Yam."
