Saturday Story Time: Your Turn


This time, I'm going to ask you a question and you can tell me the story.

Why do I always think of Marilyn Monroe when I eat a salami sandwich?

Maybe because the original working title of "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes" was "Gentelmen Prefer Cured Meats".

It true. Look it up.

Thanks for the first great guffaw of the day!

Everything I think of is obscene.

Come on Deni, let's hear it!! :-)

No, Ville. Unlike the people Steph wrote about earlier, I know the time and place for such stories. The open internet is not the place. ;)

Here's the real story:

Back in the early 80s I became friends with Bob Slatzer, who was briefly married to Monroe just before she got famous and remained friends with her throughout her life (his book, The Life and Curious Death of Marilyn Monroe sparked an international interest in the cause of her death). He told me once that she liked salami sandwiches and that when ever they went to Zuma Beach she would pack a picnic lunch that included them.

You dirty minds!
