You know, I am very often asked,
"Todd, when you talk to Regional Rock Star Ross King on the phone, what do you two guys talk about?"
It's understandable, of course. We're two very enigmatic characters, Mr. King and me.
Normally, our calls usually start with a great amount of gushing from Ross. Stuff like, Todd-you're-so-fantastic or please-help-me-co-write-my-next-worship-album. Stuff like that. I know it sounds great, but trust me, it gets OLD.
However, I am "happy" to report that our phone conversation went to a whole new level (Ho Nuva Lebel for Jeff.)
I won't get into particulars, but through a strange set of circumstances, Ross and I began discussing certain foods that might be surprising and/or disturbing to find in one's backpack.
Well, that was too good to keep just between us, so now I offer it as what I hope will be my best conversation starter to date:
What food would you find most surprising/disturbing to find in a backpack and why?

pork loin...
Jars of baby food. I have seen it, folks. It's gross. Why? It's baby food!
Eggs Benedict.
At least the conversation didn't turn to what you were wearing.
Bread pudding.
Supreme Pizza with the stuffed crust.
Nachos w/extra sour cream.
Fajitas on a sizzling platter, with peppers and grilled onions.
Raw oysters.
holy crap, i'm getting hungry. you got anything else in that magic backpack of yours?
a big juicy steak, mashed potatoes, and an ice cream sundae. hideous i tell you..hideous.
sushi
I would find it interesting and disturbing to see Todd Wright wearing a backpack!
You'd never do it. Especially one of those across the chest trendy bags all the cool people wear these days. I Dare You!
As far as the food: turkey leg
Link sausage. Or maybe tuna salad. Because if it was in your backpack, it would be spoiled. How about raw hamburger? Because if you didn't put it there, you should take it as a threat.
anything with sour cream...oh i'm nauseated already
grits
A large bag of cotton candy, snickers ice cream bar, large jar of pickled pigs feet...
enchiladas
canned dog food
buffalo wings...
I have aforementioned trendy backpack.
have eaten, opened jar of mayo
All food is rendered disturbing when contained within a man-purse.
whoa, do we have ourselves a "most comments ever" thing happening? Todd? Are we even close? If we are, let's go for it! For America!
how big is this backpack? One with rollers or just your ordinary backpack from walmart?
i think the most surprising would be a backpack with a small mexican midget baking tortillas...
Yes, a "little person" in a backpack would be quite terrifying, but that's significantly off point, I think.
I would be quite surprised and delighted to find home made tortillas in my backpack...
refried beans
My appologies to the LPoA, I hope I have not offended anyone.
I would be delighted if I found beef jerky in my backpack.
I love beef jerky...
Sauerkraut would be one I would never want anyone to have to find...
i do think it's important to note that Todd is getting what may be his record # of comments on this particular post? What is the reason? Is it that this post showed particular wit and creativity? I have my doubts.
More likely: is that he exploited my regionally-almost-famous name to get more worldwideweb attention?
or, finally, is it that backpacks have been a long-overlooked -- but quite practical -- food storage device, and this post is actually a stroke of practical, innovative brilliance, and we're all JUST NOW realizing what sorts of yummy, greasy treats we'd like to strap onto our backs and carry around?
If it be the latter, i can only say this: thank you Todd. You are a true genius.
Also, please help me co-write my next worship album. You're so fantastic.
Blake, how big is a "small" midget, exactly?
Poi.
feta cheese
