Mankind's Evolution
Hey Mike, we’re still on for the game tonight, right?
Of course, the wives are out shopping. We’re free.
Great, how ‘bout we stop for some nourishment first..
Sure, Paul, let’s cheat on the diets. We’ll get some old fashioned food.
I remember my grandma used to make the best tofu salad.
I love those, so we’ll stop by the Salad Bar on the way in? Boy, that and a large carrot juice. It doesn’t get any better than that.
Right, I’m sick of all these new fangled foods. They got one called, I’m not sure how to pronounce this, “Sausage?” Man, it’s just dead animal fat, they melt and eat. Boring as hell. I want one of those loaded salads.
I think it was my Mom that first bought into the Hot Food craze. Dad thinks she went a little nuts, he thinks it’s what killed her.
Well dumping something that hot into your belly can’t be good, probably burned her insides.
Say who’s playing tonight?
It’s Boise vs.Atlantic City. I think they’re going for first place in their divisions.
Great I love Sudden Death Roulette, who’s the croupier.
Montanez, he’s back from his carpal surgery.
Mike and Paul left the interactive workout room and headed for the amphitheater,
but gorged themselves first at the Liquid-Salad Bar.

Liquid salad bar is a bit more convincing than the salad bar lol I'd say that liquid bar would be mighty fine. What a lovely piece, kept me wondering all the way through, by the way Phil, it's not all us women do is shop you know lol 🌹
Thank you, Teddy. Just whimsical take on Mankind's future. Anything is possible. Would never denigrate women in any way.
Did feel ever so slightly lost, unsure where we were going next, Phil. Expectations upended. An enjoyable erratic ride.
Thank you, DD. Well, the future will soon be here. Lord help us, if this poem is close to truth.
My feelings remain, then....lost, unsure....
Love it
Thank you, Tony.
You're welcome
Yeah, them boys sure wanted a change, but "liquid salad bar"? I don't know, but it doesn't sound appetizing. This was entertaining... Great job!
Thank you, rr. Just a peek into the future with a bit of humor. I think they make those liquid salads today." Smoothies", or something like that.
I believe you're right about the smoothies.
