James Lileks, the jack-of-all-trades Minneapolis Star-Tribune columnist, has been running photos of Christmas junk found in thrift stores and making mock of them. It seems to me that in his entry for today, he misses an obvious joke (scroll down on his page for the photo).

The joke: when Hannibal Lecter sent Clarice Starling to Santa’s storage unit, this is what she found.

Back to Disneyland. I mentioned Walt Disney’s secret apartment over the Disneyland Main Street firehouse, below. It’s not an urban legend. I remember it from a puff-piece that National Geographic ran on Disneyland when I was small, and that I enjoyed because it was a puff-piece. I thought I might be misremembering, but a search for “‘Walt Disney’ apartment firehouse Disneyland” returns plenty of links, including this rather snarky one .
