The Panini Anomaly
A blog about the things I find interesting, weird, puzzling or just plain amusing. Like why does a panini cost so much more than a sandwich filled with the same stuff? I'm no journalist or linguistic genius so my posts probably aren't the most professionally put together - but they are honest. I may post new entries daily but if my creative juices aren't flowing, or everything just seems too normal for a while, then my entries will be few and far between. What will come - who knows - but come along for the ride!
