Today I ventured forth to survey the curious realm they call “downtown Minot.” At a establishment named Magic City Hoagies, I discovered their November tribute to some autumn feast—a creation they call “The Pilgrim.” The artisans have crafted a magnificent offering: warm fowl adorned with herb-infused sausage stuffing, bathed in gravy like the finest oils of Macedonia. Even my royal court would approve.
My campaigns led me to a tavern called The Blue Rider, where locals engage in games of chance with “pull tabs”—not unlike how my soldiers would cast lots before battle. The victor’s spoils? Discounted libations. Most intriguing.
As dusk approached, I found myself at The Starving Rooster, where they serve “Moscow Mules” for mere copper pieces. The irony of a Macedonian king drinking a Moscow-named potion does not escape me. Yet like all great conquerors, I have learned to embrace the customs of the lands I traverse.
Perhaps Aristotle was right—true knowledge comes from studying the ways of all peoples, even in the furthest reaches of the world.
Got a guess at today’s celebrity writer? It’s King of the ancient Greek kingdom of Macedon. Alexander the Great
