Lunch Lull Link-Lending

The two funniest pieces of humor writing I've read in calendar year 2006 so far: Jack Handey's Ideas for Paintings from a March issue of the New Yorker, and a hilarious riff on guilty pleasures (scroll halfway down the page) by a critic named Chris Norris in the New York Observer, from January.

Further required humor reading includes Handey's The Voices in My Head, also from the New Yorker but a few years back.

I tracked these down while having trouble falling asleep the other night. Unlike many things that you remember being funny, these are all still funny.

OK, time to go knock down the second half of Wednesday now.
