In an attempt to cash in on the latest crazes in Reality shows, Netflix will also produce its series _The Naked & The Dead_. The premise is that Kanye West and all the Kardashians will be ritually slain and raised by Voodoo as zombies under the command of Mel Gibson, and sent out to hunt down Caitlyn Jenner and anyone who gets in their way.

_The Naked and the Dead_ was previously going to be an all nude reboot of _The Walking Dead_ starring Cloris Leachman as the Undead Queen, but it was scrapped for two reasons. The first was that Leachman absolutely refused to even consider a butt double and wanted to do all of her own scenes, and the second was public concern that its similarity to Walking Dead would give Chris Hardwick yet another fecking show.

Orson Bean took his children to the Biggest Liver Pool every Sunday afternoon. He would line them up and give each an onion to toss in the pool while making a wish. On Sunday evenings hobos from far and wide would gather at the pool and cook a delicious communal dish they called Bean’s Better Than Beans.

Orson Bean and his children carried their onions on their belts, which was the style of the day when you went to Hog’s Bottom, which is what they called Liverpool in those days. Now where were we? Oh yeah: the important thing was they had an onion on their belts, which was the style at the time. They didn’t have white onions because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones…

Throwing garlic into the Liver Pool is considered terribly, terribly gauche, and will get your name mentioned in Orson Bean’s column “The Terribly, Terribly Gauche.”

Shallots are from the same family as onions, radishes, daffodils, garter snakes, Bedouins, manatees, two humped dromedaries, and the Andrews Sisters.

The word Appaloosa’s history is a charming one to be sure. It was created essentially because it’s funny sounding and is affectionately remembered today as one of Mel Blanc’s famous bits “Anaheim, Appaloosa, Cucamonga…”
