* * * * * Notes on a conversation about bumper stickers “I can't make that out,” said Spring [1]. “I can see ‘Practice Sex.’” “It says ‘Practice Safe Sex. Get married and be faithful,’” I said, reading the bumper sticker on the SUV (Stupendously Useless Vehicle) in front of us. “Aw. I just want to practice sex.” “And then” I said, “there is ‘The Big Bang Theory: God said it and **BANG** there it was.’ Funny, I didn't think God was Emeril [2]: ‘BANG!’” Spring laughed. “Kick it up a notch.” [1] http://www.springdew.com/ [2] http://www.foodtv.com/foodtv/show/0,6525,EM,00.html Email Sean Conner at sean@conman.org .
