Things in the Refrigerator…
I, for one, find the notion of articulate beings addressing me from within the confines of an egg crate disquieting. As someone who has taken a college-level embryology course, it’s hard enough for me to eat an egg, and I certainly don’t want to converse with one, much less some kind of medieval tiny humanoid thing clad in armor emerging from the crate.

“Potato Salad Annie!
{Doot! Doo-doo-doo-doot!}
She done kidnapped my granny.

It’s a Motown joke.

My bad! TJW never sang for Motown. He was what you might call “melanistically impaired.” But, then again, I used to think LeAnn Rimes was the baby sister of Busta Rymes!! So, what do I know?
