I found several mutant strawberries, but no hearts. One has to take these things when they present themselves, and not ask too many questions.<\/p>\n<p>On another note, in an odd fit of consistency, I followed my own advice today and checked last month&#8217;s credit card statement. It appears that someone named Enzo Arnaldo Pittau borrowed my visa card to book himself a Ryanair flight from Milan to Valencia. Enzo, Enzo&#8230; nope, I don&#8217;t know any Enzos. Whoever he is, I hope he had a good time &#8211; I&#8217;m pretty confident this one will be on UBS, since I caught it in time. Still, it doesn&#8217;t seem to me the brightest thing to pilfer someone&#8217;s credit card number and then book a flight in which your name shows up on the statement&#8230;<\/p>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"><a style=\"clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;\" href=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/-MH5I--TPxjU\/TeOdamNo8EI\/AAAAAAAAAks\/qEAoTRIDnfI\/s1600\/IMG_2597.JPG\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/-MH5I--TPxjU\/TeOdamNo8EI\/AAAAAAAAAks\/qEAoTRIDnfI\/s320\/IMG_2597.JPG\" alt=\"\" width=\"320\" height=\"240\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>Big news over the weekend: on Thursday, the food pyramid is going to be replaced with a new graphic. That icon of our youth, its solid base of grains and cereals sloping upward to the ideal, itty-bitty jelly bean and olive-oil summit, has seen the back of its last box of froot loops. Obama has prevailed, and the new image will be a plate divided into wedges (say not &#8220;pie chart&#8221; because &#8220;pie&#8221; is not nutritionally correct), more than half occupied by fruits and vegetables. One person who has seen it said &#8220;it called to mind a painting by the artist Mark Rothko.&#8221; I hope that doesn&#8217;t lead people to think the guidelines are abstract, too.
