The Spaghetti Incident

Down on the farm 50 years ago today the BBC reported about the Swiss Spaghetti Harvest, where “thanks to a very mild winter and the virtual elimination of the dreaded spaghetti weevil, Swiss farmers were enjoying a bumper spaghetti crop.”

Which reminds us, there’s an animated movie based on The Pedant and the Shuffly in the works; our sources think Cyd Charisse will voice the Shuffly.

It is April first, people.
