The Return of the Internet Is For Corn or This Blog Post Is Shucked!

Way back in 2013 when this blog was a wild dystopian landscape of really stupid ideas, I ran a series of posts known as...

THE INTERNET IS FOR CORN!


The premise was at best flimsy, at worst just utter nonsense but I got about a dozen posts out of it. 

Bases on the song "The Internet Is For Porn" from the Broadway puppet show called "Avenue Q", I would post a picture of some ears of corn, attached some song lyrics to suggest the corn was singing and I looked upon this insanity, called it "The Internet Is For Corn" and decided, eh, it'll do. 

Today I bring back THE INTERNET IS FOR CORN!

Watching the Tony Awards Sunday night, Andrea and I were introduced to the wonder that is Shucked!

Shucked is a 2022 musical with music and lyrics by Brandy Clark and Shane McAnally, and a book by Robert Horn. 

In the rural Midwestern community of Cobb County, Maizy and Beau are forced to postpone their wedding on account of corn blight.

Maizy leaves town to try and find a way to save their corn from the corn blight but finds a nefarious con man who ain't up to no good for Cobb County.

Below is the clip from the Tony Awards show as the cast of Shucked perform and tell you their story.

I'll go ahead and say it: It's kind of corny.   



And that my friends is the cause for the return of...

THE INTERNET IS FOR CORN!

And that my friends is that. Thank you and remember to be good to one another.  

And make life "amaizing"!
