Thank you SO MUCH, Taylor Hammie, for the Amazon tip. That is exactly what I needed. Not that buying my own slicer is still outside the realm of possibility.
Maybe I should just drop this law gig and start a Jersey deli out here in the O-town. The problem is, there probably aren't mobsters to buy off and then fireman pals to "help" ensure the place is totally incinerated when the lazy-ass boyfriend of my daughter drops his cigarette butt into a trash bin full of dry paper and salami wrapping.*
Probably before I switch careers, I will get some Taylor Ham and make sure I still like it first. Do any other NJians want me to get them some? Dunes? MW? Cuz in LA? It'll be my treat.
*This is all a reference to a job I had in high school. I worked at the deli at the corner until it burned to the ground under the above-described circumstances. The local fire department hastened the demise of the place by breaking in areas of the deli that would draw the fire towards combustibles, e.g. the hundreds of gallons of cooking oil that were inexplicably stowed everywhere. I did not share this theory with the arson detective with whom I spent six hours replaying my last day of work. I did, however, use said arson detective as an excuse for why I was too traumatized to work for the rest of senior year.

do you remember the EXTREME transvestite, dressed in a fringed suede vest, who came into the deli for a sandwich one afternoon, while I happened to be visiting springfield? I do.
