Song of the Day:
the commercial for Spatula City from the movie UFH (I know it's not a song, but it's been stuck in my head all freakin' day)
"There's just one place to go for all your spatula needs; SPATULA CITY! SPATULA CITY! A giant wherehouse full of spatulas for every occasion, thousands to choose from in every shape, size, and color. Because we eliminate the middle man, we can sell our spatulas factory direct to you. Where do you go when you want to buy name-brand spatulas at a fraction of the retail cost? SPATULA CITY! SPATULA CITY!..."
This is so absurd, the whole movie UHF is absurd. Everyone need to see it!
