Little Benny's Notebook
Eating.


Eating is one of the main neces-
sites Of life, ony that aint the rea-
son wy most people eat. most people
jest eating because they are hun
cry. Another popular reason for
eating because It is meel time and
your place at the table il all set and
the rest Of the famil'. ixpect you to,
80 you mite as we'll. And even II you
aint hungry wen you start to eat,
you mite be soon afterwards in case
you don't, so you do.
Eating l sthe most injoyable wen
you are hungry, but It is partly in
joyahle all the time. depending on
wat you're eating and how mutch. II
pou started to go without eating for
or 3 weeks. Jest to find out wat II
was like for curiosity. your curios-
ity would be satisfied, but you would
be ded. Proving the people that Jest
aCk natural are the hippiest.
Meels are in other peoples houses
ienrelly always taist better than
meels ate in your own. wich Is too
bad. on account Of most people eat
ing so many home. and IL they tried
to shut their eyes and pertend they
was eating some place elts the rest
of the family would think 1t wasent
polite. wich it wouldent be.
II is not considered helthy to eat
between meels, so the best way out
OF 1t Is to add another meel.
Their is . main kinds OF STUN
mick axes, the ferst caused by being
too empty and the End by being toe

md is more fun getting. II you have
the ferst kind pritty bad, you're libeI
TO get the End kind az soon as you
| have a chance, unless sumbody stops
giving you more helpings in time.
The most iXciting part OF a NEE
is the dizzert. Wen you think you're
