    Episode 1050

    Whipping Boy & Yes Man
    Back in Episode 640, Dick covered the Yes Man, which surprisingly will be available again in May this year, according to Raucreations.  A similar idea to the Yes Man was the Whipping Boy aka the Whiner Doll, from about 1990, a bust that takes all the blame, using pre-recorded messages.  Leo doesn’t need it, as he has Dane Golden.

    LED Shortage
    Someone told Dick that there’s going to be an LED shortage.  Not surprising.  Dick probably consumes half of the annual supply, although Leo has a saner explanation – LED TVs, more and more of which are being made.

    Haman’s Ears
    Dan Astin heard Leo talk about hamantaschen in Episode 1041.  In Pennsylvania where Dan is, hamantaschen have many flavours.  In Israel, they’re called Oznei Haman (or Ozmay Haman).  Dick is looking forward to Passover, when he can get lots of jelly doughnuts.
