[net.wobegon] Sweet sex and good corn

nemo@rochester.UUCP (Wolfe) (07/22/85)

How about it, fans?  Is fresh sweet corn really better than sex?  Or is
this one of those "I's have to try them side-by-side on an individual
basis" sort of things?  I hope this doesn't burn anybody's bacon, since
bacon is bad enough for you already...

Nemo,

If you have to ask which is better, FRESH!! sweet corn or good sex, then you
clearly haven't tried them both.  Back about '61, I used to go out to a
friend's place.  He wasn't Norwegian, but he was Filipino, so maybe that
ought to count for something.  Well, anyway, Sonny had a stand of sweet corn
out behind the house that was reserved for family and friends.  His Dad sold
sweet corn to all and sundry alongside the road, but that stuff came from 
farther back in the fields.  The corn right behind the house was better, and
we all knew it.  So Sonny and I would pick a bag from the good patch, and I'd
climb on my bike and hightail it back to town, all of about two miles, and
I'd shuck that corn and have it in the boiling water inside of fifteen
minutes from the time it left the stalk.  We had a creamery in our town, and
they made some of the best butter anywhere, I still remember the sweet, rich
taste of that butter.  A little dab of that butter, spread on Sonny's FRESH
corn, a little salt and a shot of pepper, and, well, you gotta try it, that's
all there is to it.

The real problem here is that in '61 I hadn't yet had any sex, good or
otherwise, and since then I haven't had any of Sonny's corn.  So I can't do
a "side by side" comparison, but I'd sure like to, sometime.

Cheers,

Yes, sweet corn is better than sex, it just doesn't last as long.
