Edward Scheinman

My friend Edward Scheinman spent the entire day with the gchat message "Lunch Back Soon." I was immediately confused. So I googled it.

I found this picture:


(lemme see that second hand, partner)

From the look of him, he seems to be a flautist (It. flautista).

Also beautiful (It. bellisimo).

Someone had put Scheinman's words as the title of this picture. I can only imagine the number of courses.

Push Push also mystified me. So I googled it.

Testy Mistress Google came up with this:


A video game called Push Push Penguin. I can only assume the flautist made the music for the video game. I also believe the object of the game was to use the flaut for fallen purposes. Involving pushing. And pushing.

Many of the other google searches referred to people headed out to lunch, people who would be back soon. Scheinman, however, is a music writer for some washington dc paper (fact checker is saying not the washington times) so I am imagining his reference was in fact Herbie Mann. In checking with Scheinman, he said, "No one calls me Teddy."

Thanks, Teddy. And thank you, fact checker.
