Post #1 - May 30th, 2014, 2:41 pmI just had to share this 5/28/14 NY Times theater review by Erik Piepenburg, which I found hilarious. Piepenburg writes that the title of this post was the phrase that inspired set designer Dane Laffrey's work for "American Hero" Bess Wohl's new comedy at Second Stage Theater.
And yes, Mr. Piepenburg, the phrase does sound like "the set-up to a glum philosopher's sorry joke." Why not add a priest and a rabbi and liven things up a bit?Man : I can't understand how a poet like you can eat that stuff.
T. S. Eliot: Ah, but you're not a poet.

It would be much more depressing if Sartre walked into a Subway.Pithy quote here.

Post #3 - May 30th, 2014, 3:13 pmAnd here I thought this was going be a variation on that OLD, OLD joke:
A Buddhist goes to a hot dog vendor, and the vendor asks him, "Hey buddy, what can I make ya?"
And the Buddhist replies, "Make me one with everything.""Life is a combination of magic and pasta." -- Federico Fellini
"You're not going to like it in Chicago. The wind comes howling in from the lake. And there's practically no opera season at all--and the Lord only knows whether they've ever heard of lobster Newburg." --Charles Foster Kane, Citizen Kane.

Post #6 - May 30th, 2014, 11:10 pmRené Descartes once walked into a Quiznos. The kid at the counter asked him if he wanted a sandwich.
Descartes replied "I think not."
And immediately, he ceased to exist.

OK, OK--just in case someone has been asleep for the last few decades:
.... So the vendor gives him a hot dog, and the Buddhist gives him a $20 bill. After a moment of waiting, the Buddhist asks, "Excuse me--where's my change?" The vendor smiles and says, "Ahh, change must come from within.""Life is a combination of magic and pasta." -- Federico Fellini
