A Brief Chemistry Lesson

“There is a difference between nonfat and lowfat milk,” I calmly explained to the baffled 19 year old. “You see, when I drink lowfat milk, I’m consuming milk that has approximately 1-2% of the fat remaining in it. When I consume nonfat milk, all of the fat in whole milk has been removed, leaving 0% fat. I prefer lowfat to nonfat. And yes, there is a difference between the two,” I concluded.

Newly educated, the Starbucks barista went back to doing his job.

Hi Audrey,

This is Joris, from the Craft of Comedy class at Stanford. After 5 years, I am in the bay area again. When I walked past MemAud today, I had to think about you, and so I looked up your name on the internet. It is really great that you are a stand-up comedienne now (at least, that is what I concluded from my web search). I really think this is something for you, and I would love to see one of your shows!

Many greetings & good luck,
Joris.
