Pasta: Chapter 23


Today I'd like to offer up a short psalm in honor of one of my favorite deities. The following is excerpted from the Pooflinger's Bible, in the Book of Pasta: Chapter 23.




1) The Flying Spaghetti Monster is my buddy; I shall not starve.
2) He maketh me to lie in green parsley: He leadeth me beside marinara.
3) He filleth my stomach: He leadeth me in the paths of satire for entertainment's sake.
4) Yea, though I walk through the world of the low-carb craze, I will fear no diet: for thou art with me; thy noodly appendage it comforts me.
5) Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of Parmesan: thou annointest my salad with oil; my beer foameth over.
6) Surely meatballs and garlic will follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of good food forever; RAmen.

Here endeth the lesson, for today. Now I'm going to go put up a couple of extra lightning rods, just in case...

Skip ahead 1000 years or so...

I see factions fighting over which is the preferred cheese: parmesan or myzithra and whether Ragu is better than Prego. Such is the nature of religion.

I can almost hear them now:

"We have the only true pasta, and it'll cost you 10% to get it!"

There can be no one true pasta; all the good pastas of the earth are for our consumption. For the Flying Spaghetti Monster put us on this earth to be good stewards of his pastas.
