bluemonday Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Let joy be unconfined throughout the land. From the youngest child to the oldest crone, all should wear a crown of potato this day in celebration. All hail the might spud of Mann. Let us venerate it in its glory. Surely no harm will come to the land wherin dwells the biggest potato in the universe. (Perhaps a film? Johnny Depp or Keanu Reeves as the farmer and Graham Norton as the spud?)
