I thought that was Peter Pan?
I always assumed it was used in that movie to suggest that Star Trek would never grow old.
Of course... That was before Star Trek Enterprise.

After the op, did Larry keep his excess appendage as a memento, or did he give the surgeon the finger?

I heard he fingered a suspect in a convenience store heist.

Granny's cakes were always popular because she insisted on the very best ingredients, especially the matured earwax.

I was attacked by a gang of stockings the other day. Not sure why... unless they were mad that I called them a bunch of hose.

The sandwich lay passively under the glass counter but as soon as he took a bite it leapt up and ran off, laughing merrily.

The woman ran as hard as she could carrying the wailing baby. She was terrified she would be too late. Tears must be fresh.

Huh.?. I never had any trouble getting the baby to cry once they were in the summoning cave...

Hmm... For some reason, I find myself remembering The Hallucinatory Cream Cakes scene from The Young Sherlock Holmes And The Pyramid Of Fear. Or was it a Pyramid of Doom? Or possibly Terror?
Well either way, it may have been the worst Sherlock Holmes movie ever made.
My point is, the demonic walking food was the only good part of that movie.
MORE WALKING FOOD!

That Sherlock Homes film sounds awesome. Must try to get it. Surreal sandwiches and Cream Cakes are one of the great pleasures of life, after all.

I was involved in a police chase last night.
I didn't catch him though.
Must have been the sledge hammer weighing me down.

I put it to you, Inspector, that sales of burglar eye masks and swag bags are linked to the recent spate of bank robberies.

I like the ambiguity of this one.
Was the pursuer a police officer with a sledge hammer?
Or was it someone chasing a police officer?
Or were they both police officers?
Tune in next time...

Small ones move fast.
Fun. Chase. Partake.
Big ones take small ones away. Anger.
No fun. No partake.
