In which I’m anonymous.
I just went to the falafel place for dinner. While I was ordering, I noticed that someone had printed out my review of the restaurant and brought it in to them. It was sitting on the counter near the register.
All authorship had been stripped from the document, and only the photo and text remained. It appeared to have been printed by someone named ‘felix’ or something. I wonder who it was, and why they didn’t attribute it to me?
The bad news is that I ordered the falafel platter, and it didn’t satisfy. First, it didn’t come with a side salad like it did last time. Second, the tahini had changed to the normal store-bought variety and the kisir was bland. It seems the falafel place has succumbed to that most horrid disease: popularity. Third, it cost nearly nine dollars.
Oh well, the sandwich, fries and soup menu item still rocks.

Is that the secret possible poison of the pen, that something becomes popular and is then overrun and rests on its laurels?
Yes, I do believe it is. -m
