Got Ham?
Guys, OMG. I figured out why there are so many goddamn criminals in Gotham City: Gotham directly translates into Got Ham. The city is named after a critical ham shortage, something I would have thought an ace detective like Batman would have figured out a longtime ago. We get a few Red Cross drop-offs from the Honey Baked Hammery and the streets would be cleaned up in no time. Though for the...

I'm Making Pancakes For Dinner
Whenever I do, I’m reminded of this passage: “What is a pancake? Cooked batter, covered in sugar and butter. Condiments are applied to it. It is food. But it is not as a food, not as a sustenance, that we crave the pancake. No, the pancake, or flapjack if you will, is a childish pleasure; smothered in syrup, buried beneath ice...

They are, however, still...

WatchWatch
My favorite sketch from last night’s Saturday Night Live, featuring Seinfeld, Baseball, and World War II references.  UPDATED to include actual video. Fun tip: If you hit embed during a Hulu commercial, it does not allow you to embed the actual video you want, but rather the Geico commercial that is currently airing.
