I had a dream this night. In it I had to get my lab results and one measurement they wanted was my waist circumference. When I went to the lab my doctor said, no no no, you can't have it measured now. You have to zero in the measurement first, it's an italian way. I was perplexed, what is this. The doctor continues that the italian way is to fast for 1-2 days before taking the circumference. Then he grins and looks at me and says, "I guess that's why they call it... the zero d'italia", laughs, and I wake up instantly. Thanks for reading my comedy blog.
