'Choke on This

The running joke that is William Hung refuses to sputter out and die. It's an endless marathon at this point.

The hapless Hung has just been crowned Artichoke King of the Castroville Artichoke Festival.

Sigh.

I'm assuming William Hung and Katie Holmes have something in common here: The bottom slot on the list of potential dupes, er, I mean, candidates.

Poor William. And Katie. Release them from their respective prisons. Please.
