SPAM, which is a splendid combination of chopped pork shoulder, ham, salt, water, sugar, and sodium nitrate, has seen sales soar as the economy drops.  The reason for this is obvious:  SPAM is as cheap as it is gross.

While we’re talking about it, you might as well learn some SPAM facts since you usually ignorantly make fun of it.

• Invented in 1937
• Originally called Hormel Spiced Ham
• Should always be written in ALL CAPS
• The average person in Guam consumes 16 cans of SPAM per year
• SPAM is cool with Internet spam, as long as it isn’t written in ALL CAPS
• Tons of flavors:

Who said YepYep isn’t a place for learning?

By now you’ve heard that Plaxico Burress shot himself with his own gun on Friday night inside a New York club.  Ha!  Lucky for him, the bullet that went straight through his leg didn’t hit a bone or major artery.  The big question is, what the hell was he doing with a gun?  How lame of a thug does he look like now that he shot himself?  I feel like this incidenet has a place in an upcoming Wayans Brothers movie.

To make some more fun of Plax, our friends at Gunaxin put together 10 reasons why he shot himself.

Thanks Lauren.

This commercial is even worse than the Saved By Zero ones while watching football.  Here it is again, stalking you online as well as in front of the TV.

2 Iowa fans were arrested last Saturday during the Hawkeye’s 55-0 trouncing of the Minnesota Golden Gophers.  Their crime?  Hookin up in the double-wide handicapped bathroom stall as a crowd of men simultaneously pissed and cheered.  A Metrodome security guard tipped off the cops, who then busted the exhibition.

Here’s the kicker from the report:

Police Chief Greg Hestness says the woman initially gave a false name to officers. She was released to her husband and the man was released to his girlfriend. Both people in the stall were intoxicated.

Yup, hammered and hooking up with a stranger in the bathroom.

This special edition of Home Stretch is extra long to get you through the week (or rest of a slow work day).  Not sure how much updatage will be happening this week, but hopefully you’re not online regardless.
