Well, Ham Fans, it’s official. All my wildest dreams are coming true. Not the one about immeasurable wealth. No, not total world domination. No, but that’s a good guess, too. Still, it’s definitely worth a post of its own. The newsworld is buzzing and I guess you could say I am, too.

The Ballad of Paul and David
Posted in Music, Random, TV/Movies on July 11, 2009 by Polythene HamHamarama Poll
Posted in Uncategorized on May 21, 2009 by Polythene HamHey, all you loyal, faithful, and true hamarama.com readers. I’ve created this nice little poll for you. Not only will you be helping me with my next project, but it gives you, the public, a chance to interact with us. Won’t that be lovely? The topic, of course, is music. I want to know what you think is the WORST COVER of all time (think Celine Dion’s cover of “You Shook Me All Night Long”…I really wish I made that up). I’ll give you a week and then I will unveil the results in a countdown of sorts. Have fun, but be honest. After all, honesty IS the best policy…right after “you do NOT talk about fight club.” Just click the link below and happy polling.
Love,
Polythene Ham
For next week’s post, I want your feedback. Which the worst cover ever done?(polls)
An Open Letter to Kings Place and Twitter regarding your Haiku competition
Posted in Random on May 19, 2009 by Polythene HamHello, from America! Land of the Lost, Home of the Monkees (well, you know, except for Davy Jones), Birthplace of Monopoly®.
I recently learned that you were holding a haiku contest for commuters to Kings Cross Station in London. And I hear YOKO ONO is one of the judges!! Blimey, it’s a good thing I found out when I did! As Hamarama.com’s resident music guru, I pride myself on keeping up with all the latest music gen. Since Yoko Ono is the widow of one of most brilliant musicians of all time (John Lennon), and is a musician as well, then this is absolutely within my jurisdiction. Read more »

What if Neil Armstrong had died on the moon?
Posted in Random, Tech on April 29, 2009 by hamonthestreetHere is an amazing find, it’s the speech that Nixon’s speechwriters had keyed up in the event that Armstong and Co. were stranded on the moon.
Where would our space program be now if this had happened? Would it be better or worse? This leads to an even larger discussion of privatizing the space program. Our poorly funded current program may not weather this economic storm, not to mention we are using ancient technology, maybe we should let the silicon valley crowd take a shot.
Here is the link to this haunting speech.
