Pop-Tart Mysteries

"Why do Pop Tarts come in twos, like animals on biblical arks? I swear they're too poisonous for me ever to eat both of 'em, so I sit around lookin' at the second one, feeling bad, like a six-year-old who didn't finish his breakfast.
And don't tell me they're in there mating, like biblical ark animals, because man, if that were the case, there'd be baby Pop Tarts in there, at least occasionally..."

Wow, you really are uncool. I'm impressed. Actually I was listening to the Flesh and Blood album yesterday, because that's the one they'd just released at the time I was 14 and in love with Bret Michaels. But I have the Open Up and Say . . . Ahh! album too, so I'll be glad to play it for you in the broom closet if you want.

I can't remember any Amy Bloom stories that didn't feature characters breaking exotic sexual taboos. Which maybe tells you something about my own memory's priorities.
