Killing The Joke.

What is a Ghost's favourite meal?

This concept was introduced to me by my good friend David, also known as FoldsFive, a minor internet celebrity who maintains a most triumphant blog called 'Myxamatoasties' which I recommend.

This was the genesis of Killing the Joke. Check it out, tell your friends!

Brr, they're all in that vein and make me chuckle somewhat guiltily. Check 'em out.
