I was standing in the kitchen one day, fixing a sandwich or something, when suddenly I heard a very distinct "sneeze" emanate from the fridge. Naturally curious, I opened the door and scrutinized the various food items. Suddenly, the mayonaise began to scream, "The ketchup did it! The ketchup!" Of course, I was stunned. This, after all, was an inanimate object. And, truthfully, to this very day, I've never been able to coax the ketchup to say or do anything and have concluded the sneeze was my own imagination. -Gary Larson (The Far Side) |
