Because there's no such thing as too much cheese. Unrolling the braciole of consciousness; shaping the meatball of life. Because everything is funny; you just need to view it from the proper angle. Good for cats. Made in Poland. Because everything is like a hat. You know how those gorillas can be... Very unforgiving.

Joey has a point. Mastandreas can communicate with their faces -- just look at the photo of Giuseppe as he talks to us through the ages. The face could mean many things, depending upon locale:

In the kitchen:
"The soup tasted good but it was a little thin."

Curbside:
"Can you believe this guy makes a living mixing cement that way?"

By the garden:
"You walk through my tomato plants again and I'll break your knees."

It's all so context-specific -- it's no surprise that outsiders can't read it correctly.

John Paul and Joseph have taken it to a new level. They lean together and touch their foreheads and hum a little and make some joke about what they saw inside each others' minds (okay, it's a gag I sort of started when John Paul would put his head against mine when he was a baby).

The best comment I've heard yet:

John Paul, after leaning his head against Joseph's:
"I saw roller-coasters and flying monkeys in there."

Knowing Joseph as well as we do, we began to fear the John Paul had somehow perfected a technique that began as just a harmless gag.
