Helpful Things to Know

  • If all you eat is rabbit, you will starve to death.
  • Denial: not a river in Egypt.
  • Alcohol-based hand sanitizers, not antibacterial soaps. For most purposes, regular soap is fine. It's not surgery.
  • When drinking soju, as when drinking port, one does not fill one's own glass.
  • White on the right, queen on her color.
  • When buying sweet corn out of some guy's pickup, don't peel back the husk to inspect. You don't peel an orange at the grocer's, after all.
  • Don't sniff the cork, but look at it to see if it matches the bottle if you really don't trust them. The only reason to send back a wine at this point is if it [the wine] tastes/smells like wet cardboard.
  • Old silver may not have a fish knife, they'll instead have a set of two forks. Don't be afraid.
And, hey, if you know anybody who needs a cheap room in Chicago in August, I know this guy... Or if anybody needs employees...
