We took along some DVDs to watch on the train from New Orleans.
Rather than watch "The Last Waltz" for the hundredth time I agreed to sit through a Firesign Theater DVD. I've never been a fan but my wife knows the dialogue by heart and often blurts it out before the performers. At any rate I finally found out (sort of) what caused her to burst into raucous laughter in front of a Winona, Minnesota pizzeria. When I asked her at the time she just said, "Nevermind, you wouldn't understand." Winona is a small college town on the Mississippi and the place I'd like us to retire to when the time comes. Madison, Wisconsin is a much bigger place and no one thinks more highly of Madison than the pretentious cheeseheads who live there. In Madison there is a string of pizza places called Rocky Rococo's. So the name of the pizzeria in Winona that had my wife doubled over in laughter ? Betty Jo Bielaski's. I mean I still don't quite get it but at least I know now it's one of those Firesign Theater things. -- Ken Fortenberry |
