Sandwich of Brotherly Love

This year I moved from New York to Philadelphia, where to my surprise, I am one of the least sandwich-obsessed people around. Living in Philly has been a whole new sandwich education. There are cheesesteaks, and hoagies, and cheesesteak hoagies to learn about, to say nothing of roast pork. There is the language of steak-ordering. Do you want it with sauce?

That means asking ChaCha questions with the assumption you're communing directly with God. This adds weight and significance to what is otherwise a phone-based search engine powered by underpaid and questionably qualified human employees. Not to slam ChaCha -- bear in mind I know very little about them. My technique isn't unique or as crazy as it sounds, either. A brief glance at their recent search history revealed well over 1,000 texts to the service asking "Are you God?" Wait, isn't this a sandwich blog? What's with all the God talk?
