He moved to Twin Peaks and started practising psychiatry, but these days, you can find him giving therapy to Connecticut residents who once rode a mechanical bull.

Mechanical bull repair is just another dying profession in this country much like radio disc jockeys and telephone operators.

Radio disc jockeys and telephone operators are a dying breed but you can visit some originals just outside of town at the PowerWorld Wax Museum and Gift Emporium.

The PowerWorld Wax Museum and Gift Emporium is open every day of the year except for Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Thanksgiving and Christmas are some of the 36 paid holidays for the FWG (or TFWG as some prefer)/PowerWorld staff.

The FWG (or TFWG as some prefer)/PowerWorld staff are as the old saying goes, the cream of the crop.

The cream of the crop is an interesting idiom as the two really don't go together- that is, cream is a dairy product while anything that can be called a crop is grown in soil, such as corn, wheat, barley or beans.

Corn, wheat, barley, or beans are your choices every day in the cafeteria but I usually grab a burger or a hotdog. Geez, I don't know of any PowerWorld employees who take all 36 paid holidays a year. I don't even think dmargalotti takes them all. Then again, he's always away on those international band camp excursions. Who really knows what he does when he's away?

A burger or a hot dog simply cannot replace delicious antipasto and shrimp scampi.
Some great big shrimp (granted, it has to be shelled) mince some garlic little bit of dry vermouth unsalted buttah some lemon zest garnish it with some parsley sprigs and yer good to go. The antipasto recipe is somewheres around page 1300 or something, but it's great before the shrimp scampi.

Deliscious antipasto and shrimp scampi is one of the excellent dishes available at Miss Silky's Tasty Tidbits which is located on the east side of town.
