Warning, Will Robinson! Warning!

[caddyman]

The Karma Pixies have just fired a warning shot across the bows of the good ship caddyman.

My boss has just been promoted see, and has brought in a goodly selection of Krispy Kreme doughnuts to celebrate. As we know, your correspondent is genetically programmed to eat anything that cleverly bye-passes all major food groups and let's face it, few things are as efficient in that regard as Krispy Kreme doughnuts.

Being amongst the first to the selection box (!) I was able to avail myself of a icing-glazed jam doughnut.

Mmm caloricious.....

Trouble is, I am wearing a white (VERY white) England cricket shirt, which is like a red rag to a bull where sugary confections are concerned. Suffice it to say that Lady Luck was on my side this one time and the Karma Pixies relented. The inevitable blob or flying jam hit then desk with a most satisfying splat no more than a couple of millimetres away from my shirt. It remains unscathed.

Next time it will be for real, I know it.

Perhaps you could suggest to Krispy Kreme that they offer disposable "bibs" to prevent such possible sartorial incidents?

Before some litigious individual sues them for not issuing a "may spurt all over you nice clean shirt" warning with their produce.

Flying/dripping jam is all part of the Krispy Kreme experience, I find.

One of the ladies here is a magnet for flying food. When we all go out for a nosh-up, she covers her entire torso in napkins at the table, and the evil food drips still find an unprotected spot and splatter on her shirt.

Something similar happened to me last night with my first jam sandwich in about five years. I now remember why I stopped eating the bloody things in the first place!

Since you like Krispy Kreme doughnuts, perhaps this press release somebody recently forwarded to me may be of interest:

May 12, 2006 - The Grizzlies and Krispy Kreme Doughnuts have teamed up to create “Baseball’s Best Burger.” The burger, which was debuted at the Grizzlies' December 10th sale, consists of a thick and juicy burger topped with sharp cheddar cheese and two slices of bacon. The burger is then placed in between each side of a Krispy Kreme Original Glazed doughnut.

I feel at a bit of a loss not quite knowing what Krispy Kreme doughnuts are,never mind the etiquette for eating them. Don't suppose they do jamless ones? Okidoki not the point and then the Karma Pixies really would have nothing to do which would be a great shame.

Boroshan was trying to say something rude that I should put on here but I can't spell whatever it was!

Tell that boroshan not to be a naughty boy.

They do ring doughnuts without the jam. They're OK, but what's the point of doughnuts without the Russian Roulette that is the jamalanche?
