SUBJECT: Mustard??
If you have children you will probably relate to this father.
As ham sandwiches go, it was perfection. A thick slab of ham, a fresh bun,
crisp lettuce and plenty of expensive, light brown, gourmet mustard.
The corners of my jaw aching in anticipation, I carried it to the picnic
table in our back yard, picked it up with both hands, but was stopped by my
wife suddenly at my side. "Hold Johnny [our six week old son) while I get my
sandwich," she said.
I had him balanced between my left elbow and shoulder and was reaching for
the ham sandwich when I noticed a streak of mustard on my fingers. I love
mustard. I had no napkin. I licked it off. It was not mustard. No man
ever put a baby down faster. It was the first and only time I have sprinted
with my tongue protruding.
With a washcloth in each hand I did the sort of routine shoeshine boys do,
only I did it on my tongue.
Later (after she stopped crying from laughing so hard) my wife said, "Now
you know why they call that mustard "Poupon."
[When you stop laughing, pass it on!]
