Take two thick slices of Noonie's day old bread, smear Honey Cup honey mustard
liberally over both. Cover both slices with green leaf lettuce. Then on one slice only lay smoked turkey on the lettuce,
a tomato slice on the turkey and sprinkle it with shredded carrot. Then on the lay a slice of provolone cheese over the
carrot then a green pepper ring on top of the cheese. Sprikle with sprouts. Cover with the other slice, lettuce side down.
The letuce should be stuck to the bread with honey mustard so it doesn't fall off when you turn it upside down to cover the
sandwich. Slice sandwich in half with a knife. Wrap in tightly in plastic wrap. Use too much wrap. Tape on label. Tadaaa!

Guest Blogger: Deep Throat! In case it might be interesting to you, here is an article from Deep Throat concerning the way IDX was actually founded:
Inside Story about how IDX was Founded
We've all seen the television ads that describe Rich Tarrant's rags to riches story. But, what really happened? Did Rich Tarrant use Hollywood to embellish his story? Here is what Rich told me about the way IDX was founded.
Rich Tarrant and Bob Hoehl both worked at IBM. When they decided to start their own company, they did it secretly, while continuing to work at IBM. Their company was called Burlington Data Processing (BDP) and, initially, did payroll processing. While IBM thought that Rich Tarrant was working for them as a salesman, he actually was trying to make get business for his own company, BDP. Similarly, Rich's partner, Bob Hoehl, was working on starting BDP while employed at IBM. Unfortunately, Bob Hoehl made a mistake when he ordered his BDP business cards. The cards were delivered to his office at IBM! When IBM realized what was happening, Bob Hoehl was fired.
Rich and Amy Tarrant had dinner with Bob and Cynthia Hoehl to launch their new venture. Amy Tarrant offered the following toast:
"Life is a bitch, But we don't care, Because we're going to be rich!"
Naturally, this story is not told in Tarrant's ads. Rich never gives credit to the role of his first wife, Amy Tarrant. But there is a reason why Amy is the one who made that toast. It was Amy's family money and real-estate connections that helped to launch Rich Tarrant.
I wasn't there at the time, and I can’t tell you what definitely happened. I can only tell you what Rich told me. In general, Tarrant enjoys talking and enjoys putting people down. I heard Tarrant tell people this story multiple times, laughing at the way Bob Hoehl got fired and laughing at Amy’s toast. -D.T.
It's from All The President's Men. Woodward and Bernstein met their source, whom they gave the pseudonym "Deep Throat," in a parking garage.
I don't know the identity of the person sending me these posts. Frankly, I don't care. We obviously have very parallel agendas, so it doesn't really matter to me very much who it is. If it's fiction, then my whacky disclaimer indemnifies me.
I gave him or her the name "Deep Throat," because it's a fun homage, and my blog is as much about theatre as it is about politics in Burlington, Vermont.
Time to watch the WPTZ debate. It's on in ten.
Oh... and yes ok... I'll quickly mention my two recent brushes with the pols- Last Sunday I took my parents to the P&C in Colchester and went next door to Brooks to get them a water filter. Tarrant was behind me in line. I pretended I didn't see him. I had a creepy feeling he recognized me. As I got the hell out of there, I heard the clerk jokingly, glowingly ask him if he was "gonna take the whole place this time?"
Saturday I saw Scuddder at the Shanty parking lot, all alone, trying to talk on a cell phone, carry a million flyers against the wind and cross Battery street at the same time. I pulled over and offered some help. He said he was ok, and once he had crossed the street, I could sort of tell he knew where he was going.
Don't forget that Tarrant was the recipient of 7.3 million dollars in tax credits from the state of Vermont. He was quoted later in the WSJ stating that he would have settled his business here anyway because "vermont is dear to my heart". I wish he'd pay it back.
