| This postcard reminded me of a book I read recently about The Hershey Company, and the “ladies on the line” who made Hershey’s kisses. Rewarded for speed, and because those little “plumes” in the kisses sometimes blew away, some women used to spit on them to keep them in place. | This postcard reminded me of the reason I drink my coffee black, and it’s not because I’m trying to be some kind of badass. I started drinking coffee in college, and since I was acquiring the taste anyway, I wanted to learn to like the least caloric version of it. | This postcard reminded me of another set of 50-word stories I wrote about “things I think are irrational but that I do anyway,” which included nutritionally rating garbage disposal contents, my reaction to stand-up comedians’ failed jokes, and thinking that exercising is the absolute best use of a rainy day. |
