Hey, does anyone know if you can get violently ill or intestinal worms or something from eating raw pancetta? It comes in vacuum-packed plastic bags and is sold next to the ordinary smoked cold cuts, so Roone thought it was intended to be slapped in a sandwich and eaten as is. Basically he ate raw bacon on a bagel. Yecch.
Also, I have tomorrow off. Many people complain that mid-week holidays are jarring, puny, and virtually useless if they're not combined with the regular weekend. I like to have a one-day break in the middle of the week, myself. It makes work seem like something I just drop in on for a few days here and there.
