I have a truly odd problem. My wife went into the refrigerator’s vegetable crisper drawer today, and found…a snail. Clearly, the little guy came home from the grocery store with some vegetable or another, probably (based on the leaf he is viciously clutching) the celery.

Of course, my daughter doesn’t want anything untoward to happen to the little guy, yet I have to admit I’m not exactly conversant in the care and feeding of snails…truth is, I’m not exactly sure what kind of snail he is (I assume there are different kinds…but then, what do I know?). So if you have any thoughts on the matter, while I’m frantically searching the Net trying to find some sort of guidance, please feel free to drop a comment or email.

On Wednesday, the 11th of January, XM Satellite Radio’s The Bob Edwards Show will rebroadcast his conversation with Susan Ware, author of It’s One O’Clock and Here Is Mary Margaret McBride: A Radio Biography which was originally broadcast May 2, 2005. If you’re new to XM, if you missed it the first time, or just want to hear it again, make a note now to listen!
