What beats hunger among human
needs? In my case, laziness. I proved this today when I looked in my mostly-bare
cupboards and found…not much. Just four flights of stairs below my flat—or a
short ride in the elevator—a supermarket calls to quench any and all food
cravings, yet I settled for an onion tortilla on toast.
What is the third element in this
game? Booze, which beats hunger and laziness every time. Alcohol trumps fear. Don’t
believe me? The next time there is a tsunami warning in your area, take a walk
down to the beach. If there is a bar open, it will have customers.
