F*ck turkey. Ham is where it’s at. I mean, we had turkey, but the ham was thebusiness. I baked a lovely Black Forest ham in a pineapple/mustard glaze on “Turkey Day.” It still eats good. And the leftover possibilities are far greater with ham than they are with turkey. Today? Ham and cheddar panini for lunch. Tonight? Fried rice w/ ham. Good luck with that dried-out bird, losers.

Oh, right, Nintendo downloads. Ten of them drop this week across the Virtual Console and WiiWare/DSiWare. Rather than blog about each, I’m just going to make a list. Look, this ham isn’t going to eat itself.
