Home again, home again

I estimate that little traffic tie-up about doubled the time driving back from Narragansett. Oh well.

I only indulged in one bit of New Jersey Merging Chicken. I won, which is not difficult if you know the trick, but it was an empty victory, because five minutes later the truck who lost zipped into the left lane and skipped ahead a fair ways.

Despite this, an enjoyable evening.

The New Jersey Merging Chicken is the last of the boutique chickens for sale in the Northeast. It tastes like car exhaust and adenaline, has the texture of bent metal and concrete in dire need of repair, and has an aroma of burnt rubber and cold sweat.

$12.48/lb

kerri9494 asked me about New Jersey Merging Chicken during lunch. I revealed the two sekrit near-guaranteed ways to win.

1: Have a bigger car.

2: Don't move your head to look at mirrors-- you don't want to suggest you've acknowledged that the other car is anything more than a figment of its driver's imagination.

(2) is about right. As far as (1) goes ... the guys I beat were driving a pickup truck, which easily outmassed my Toyota Corolla.
