Best sandwich? : those sublime baguettes at any European vast central train station - so forgivingly divine : that perfect crust, rich butter in deep voids, some green veg and cheese or smattering of meats and byob of rolling bliss with crumbs to dab up and suck off whatever fingers are around! ahh, to travel . . .

Exercise: worth it? : depends, do you want to live forever?

Flat or sparkling? : duh, avec scintillating bubbles, naturally
