I don't want to sound sick or anything but does anyone have a picture of this thing? My chances of leaving the wild ice fields of Canada to go and check this out for myself seem slim at the moment.

I've seen it. The Mutter Museum is a pretty damn fascinating place as well. I highly recommend it to anybody living or visiting here who have an interest in morbid type medical stuff.

Oh John, get a life. Lets road trip there, we can bring Shannon along as well if you like, though I doubt she'll be willing to go with me. And it all does seems quite pretentious indeed. Isn't that a lovely word? Oh yes, yes my friend, is it.

Of course it's pretentious! But it still has plenty of worthwhile reading. I'll take pretentious over stupid anyday. And though NMH isn't pretentious being a fan is...

Mind you, the author is just some girl who wrote about the song and sent it in, not a regular McSweeney's writer.

I love the "Reviews of New Food".

it's a humorous literary magazine. it's very purposefully strange and ridiculous.
