Do any of y’all remember that old commercial for the Egg Scrambler? It was built kind of like a stand up orange juicer, and it would punch a spike through an egg shell, then scramble the egg in the shell.

I renamed that thing the Home Labotomy Kit, and amused my friends with the mental image of me scrambling my brians all day long.

Maybe I should rename myself NostroSealemonus… \< rimshot \>

You say “cheesy” like that’s a **BAD** thing.
