Milk Mustache

James Franco tells a great story about a fake penis.



If I threw a party, I would invite James Franco to come and tell stories like this one.

John McCain tells Maryland Republicans "I know how to win wars." Which ones? I'm sure we're all very grateful for Mr. McCain's service over the years but this is like Sergio Garcia saying "I know how to win majors*."


*for non golf fans, Sergio Garcia is a Spanish golfer who despite playing in many majors over the years - and acquitting himself exceptionally well in several - has never actually won one.

200 Days on the Molly Aida

In commemoration of a dubiously important milestone (our 200th post), here is a clip of Fitzcarraldo's infamous dinner aboard the Molly Aida for which our lovely little blog is named.



Much appreciation to all the posters, readers, and posterreaders who make Dinner on the Molly so swell.
