sitting on the bus peering into all available apartment windows i saw the impossible - a bucket of kentucky fried chicken lamp. the hypothetical "colonel" was clearly glowing and edison was clearly thinking this was not what he had in mind with the whole lightbulb concept. since i cannot find a kentucky fried chicken bucket lamp online, i must assume it is a one of a kind, likely created by a sassy and ironic vegan.
even though kelly clarkson is just about as mainstream as you can get, i still am excited she's performing on the grammy awards. being as she's a size 8 or maybe even 10, she never would have gotten a record deal without american idol and will always seem to me a bit of an industry outsider. i'll always root for her. it's sick but i will. i say put her up just before madonna to make madge's voice look maximally post menopausal quaaluded alvin and the chipmunks. i hope madonna falls down and cracks open then everyone will see there's nothing inside but sweaty spandex and loose change and a halfway made friendship bracelet.
that's hot! well at least the shot himself in the head part, not the hurting and killing other people part.
no, the kfc lamp most likely came from a kfc bucket chandelier, a throwback to the 70's, a heady time for chicken in a bucket.
yes, there really were bucket chandeliers.
i did not dream it.

I managed a KFC in the 70s and have a lamp like the one you describe. It has a small bulp in the glass base that makes it a nice night light and a usual bulp above like a normal lamp.
