A modern-day Hansel and Gretel story, with wings

By JEN DOLL

I'm a Domino's pizza delivery guy: neither rai...

I love it when pizza-and-wing-stealing criminals are caught in the net of their own bad manners!

A pizza delivery man was attacked for his pies early Saturday morning, but the suspected thieves didn’t make as clean a getaway as they had hoped—the idiots left a Hansel-and-Gretel-like trail of pizza and chicken wing sauce right to their front door.

There are days when I’ve wanted pizza bad. But never so bad that I was inspired to hit my delivery guy on the head with a coffee pot, grab the pie, and bolt. Also, I always use napkins.

I admit, though, marinara sauce and white clothing do seem to have a love-hate relationship.

No word on whether the pies were Domino’s new recipe. Which might explain some things.

        About Me

        Once upon a time I was the managing editor at an irreverent and scrappy magazine called Radar. My claim to fame there included quenching a near deadly wastebasket fire, always ordering enough pizzas for the whole team, and making sure the copy was clean and sparkling.

        Before that, I got around as a freelancer, working for such varied companies as Reader's Digest, Rodale, McKinsey & Company, and US News & World Report, in roles that included writing, editing, researching, and "making the trains run on time."

        When Radar folded at the end of October 2008, I found myself at OK! magazine, a tabloid weekly famous for spending a lot of money on Jamie Lynn Spears' baby photos and having the greatest staff turnover since the Titanic. (I became a casualty of the May '09 round of layoffs, but lived to blog about the tale.)

        I'm now back in the freelance arena, plying my trade—and 10 years of experience—to the highest (or lowest. Or any) bidder, making do with a little less day-by-day, and wondering how this great publishing apocalypse is going to shake out in the end.

        My bet is on content.
