…Pineapples, she whispered as she slowly unholstered her pistol. A voice spoke up behind her: “What better way to open a can when you can’t find the can opener?”

“Dale Monte!” She exclaimed, “I thought you were dead!”

“No ma’am,” he answered, “I got oot of that place right aboot the time the shit started hitting the fan.”

She fainted. When she awoke…

Whoa. I love you. Reading that just made me feel incredibly happy and I don’t know why.

Seroiusly, I’m obsessed with pineapple. I eat it all the time whenever I can. I love fresh the best, but sometimes it is too acidic (I think) and will start to hurt my tongue. Also I’m poor and it’s hard for me to want to spend 3 dollars on a piece of fruit. Even though it’s so delicious.

Aside from fresh, I like sliced pineapple in a can. The kind that’s cut in rings. Mmmmm.

The street vendors in Bangkok sell fresh, ripe pineapple with a sort of salt/chili mixture for dipping. So you get sweet, a little sour, salty and spicy all in each bite. For about twenty five cents a bag. Mmmmmm, pineapple!
