On Saturday, Will and I drove two hours on freshly-paved highway to the beach in Buchanan.
I should have stayed home.
See, we stopped somewhere to get some lunch but all they had left was peanut soup so we let someone lead us somewhere else where all of us ordered the goat soup.
Everything was alright until my second mound of meat. My fork hit a hard place I thought was bone so I flipped the bone over and considered what I was looking at.
Teeth.
Not a few isolated molars, but an intact lower jaw.
Like a seasoned medical student, I quietly studied this smiling goat half-face, set it aside, and continued eating as though nothing had happened. Only twenty minutes later did the full horror of the thing wash over me.
I had tofu and a pack and a half of gum that night.
Vegetarians, this is your window. I am yours. Talk me over the fence.
It felt like this...
and this.

A mandible of brown-white teeth
attached to a tongue
attached to a tongue
attached to a nasal cavity.
