Mmmm, tasty

English is such a wonderfully flexible language. This story in The New Vision, a newspaper from Uganda, about a man who caught his brother having an affair with his wife, would normally be of interest to about three people (the man, his wife, and his brother), but I just love this little phrase: "[H]e caught with his brother chewing Sodom’s apple in broad day light." I didn’t think Sodom had anything to do with the story of the apple, but hey, it certainly is a colorful bit of writing.
