Notes for Original Reporting

I arrived on the scene at 1405 Monterey Highway, in San Jose, California, shortly after closing time, with my camera in tow.

• Chili was still on the menu, at a price of US$1.19 for a small serving.

• Workers were unloading supplies and carting them into the back door of the establishment.

• I was unable to procure a bowl of the chili in question, as the drive-thru closed at 1 a.m. local time (09:00 UTC).

• The restaurant appears to be preparing to re-open tomorrow morning.

I may follow up and purchase a bowl of the chili from that location to photograph and inspect it, but I'm not a big chili eater, and I would feel bad giving it to someone else, so I'm afraid it would go to waste after I was done with it.

Anyways, that's all from San Jose for tonight.

Eye witness

(Unintended pun removed.) Knowing what we know now, doesn't it seem odd that we could write "and upon recognizing the object as a finger, vomited." at the time? Even if we had had an eyewitness, how could they have seen her recognise it as something if she already knew what it was. I have my doubts about more of the dramatising, but this bit I (another unintended pun removed) can not even find a possibility for. Aliter (talk) 21:33, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
