My first Asparagus was a reel to reel with 1 inch stalk. It was only stereo, so you had to eat everything on the fly, which was great when the meal was really tight, but horrid when the carrots and the potatoes couldn't chew in time with the steak. Then I moved onto a 4-stalk Asparagus, which allowed me to overdub and bounce things around (squash - not so bouncy). Finally in the late '90s I got myself a proper Digital Asparagus Workstation and the things I can eat now are just incredible! Butter on corn, a little salt and pepper on my ommlette, full meals - unlimited courses!!! Who'd 'a thunk it back in the day! Oh, her name was Yolanda, and she played me as much as I played her....oooohhhh yeah....
