Not only did thieves in Australia steal 17 tons of ham from a warehouse in Sydney, they left a note on the wall that said "Thanks, Merry Christmas."
Ouch.
The ham was stolen from the Zammit Ham and Bacon Curers company via a hole the thieves cut in the wall. The ham was worth $100,000. No one knows how the crooks got 17 tons of ham out of there though. I'm guessing elves, or maybe a relative of The Grinch?
We can change the way we make eggs -- scrambled, poached, fried -- but what about changing the eggs themselves? Mix up your scrambling routine with quail eggs.

"Listen, I was wandering. Can I ask you a question? Uh... was your father a meat burgler? Here's why I ask: because it looks like somebody stole two fine hams and shoved them down the back of your dress."
