Good Eeeeeevening…

Tonight’s gripping tale of terror weaves a sinister web of mistaken identity, espionage, greed, double-parking … and murder.  An innocent bed of lettuce becomes a deathbed in a little story entitled… Ham Sandwich.

  4. Hand Tenting and evil laughing ensue

  5. Andi from NC says:

    The leetle paws and leetle feetsies and chipmunkian cheekies…. *swoon*…. *thud*

    PS – as usual, NTMTOM’s hovertext is inspired….

    He should be leaning on a wee cane.

  7. Aleutie says:

    Ok, what did you do NOW?

  8. BB/VA says:

    No, the housewife did it. With a frozen leg of lamb.

  9. Theresa says:

    (Count Floyd voice) Ooooooh, scary, kids!

  10. Illise says:

  12. Kar says:

    That shadow is creeep-yy.

    Beautiful silvery coat though.

  13. snorgler says:

    Leg of lamb FTW! That was my favorite episode ever!

    [Relevant (?) linkage added. ;) - Ed.]

  14. Rachael says:

    I see no evils there. I see only adorabuhls.

  15. Anne says:

    C’mon!!! The BUTLER did it :& Who else?

  16. KathyND says:

    That is one of the sweetest pictures I have ever seen…love it! Was a definite “ahhhhhhhhhhhhh” moment. (smile)

  17. Von Zeppelin says:

    Theresa, a Count Floyd voice might be appropriate. I thought maybe NTMTOM was going for an “Alfred Hitchcock Presents” effect:

  18. BrianW says:

    May I rub noses with this little guy? sooo cute!

  19. Alfred Twitchcock…

    *struggles to suppress disturbing mental image*

    *fails*

  20. G says:

    A Winter White! She is so cute.

    “I’m innocent, I tell you, innocent. I wasn’t anywhere near the place at the time. Now turn that damned light out.”

  22. georgina0912 says:

    No evil laugh from Mr. Hammie Twitchcock?

    I doubt i would ever be scared of the little guy, he is so darn adorable that i will *bep* his nosie like every few seconds while he is telling me the double-parking-lettuce-horror story. What a cute, precious baby!

  23. Suzanne says:

    Sabrina even got the shadow profile down! Awesomeness!

  24. resriechan says:

    georgina –

    we will assume that you intended to *beep* his nosie, rather than
    to *bep* his nosie …… ( ;) )

  25. resriechan says:

    IMO, the clever posishe of his/ her little handsies, and the wordsmithing of Mr. NTM are the two best cherries at the tip-top of this ice cream Sundae ….

  26. Stunbunny says:

    That Ham has plans. Evil plans. Count on it.

  27. Blondie says:

    Are you pondering what I’m pondering?

  28. Saffron says:

    Paws are so nommable!

    Dial H for Hammie

  29. @Alice Shortcake… HEheheheheh!

  30. Jess&Friends says:

    I have the urge to startle that hamster. BOO!

  31. caligirl says:

    eeeek!! *peeks between the fingers covering face* … think benson hedges might be able to take this guy?? mr. twitchcock … lol
    anyone else for the impending doom tag?

  32. Mindflex says:

    he looks more scared than scary

  33. J. says:

    Was that still from “Dial Ham for Murder” or “The Third Ham”?

  34. doggabone says:

    “An innocent bed of lettuce…” slayed me. The rest was gratuitous violence.

  35. BB/VA says:

    I have a confession to make – I used to be scared to death of Alfred Hitchcock. Not of his show – of HIM (and according to Bill Mumy, I wasn’t alone in that). When the show came on, I would hide in the next room until he was gone, and then watch the rest of the show (I’m talking pre-school age here).

    But I do like the hammie!

  36. Get a cat!

  37. good old whatshername says:

    @Blondie: I think so, Brain, but Costco doesn’t carry detcord in bulk anymore. Not after our last plan with the squid, the glitter and the Rice-a-Roni.

  38. pounce says:

    LOL @ “Alfred Twitchcock”. Sounds a trifle obscene.

  39. gizmo says:

    Hammy looks like the evil C. Montgomery Burns from the Simpsons.

    Excellent!

  40. PJ says:

    I think Hammie might be a Transporter…

  41. Sinick says:

    It’s Mr. (Hammie) Burns!

    “Eeeeeeeeeexcellent…”

  42. Sinick says:

    drat, too late. gizmo beat me to the punchline.

  43. Christy says:

    I know it’s a “rodent,” but it’s SO CUTE!

  44. victoreia says:

    *snicker* “Alfred Twitchcock”!!!

  45. skippymom says:

    I’ve been avoiding eating ham for a while now, but this post has me really craving a nice ham samwich.

  46. Padfoot_Lives says:

    He looks like Peter Lorre! (I think it’s the eyes.)

  47. kzgz says:

    Look for Twitchcock’s cameo carrying a newspaper in the train station.

  48. Gigi says:

    I think he looks more lire Peter Lorre

  49. kzgz says:

    A tiny, tiny newspaper. The HAMSTER Gazette!

  50. Katrina says:

    Well, I was going to go with Dial H for Hamster, but that got taken so- and he does look like Peter Lorre- “Mr. Reeeeeek, where are the letters of transport?”

  51. Onigiri says:

    Such a sweet little hamster !
    Really reminds me of mine <3
    Looks healthy, good job.

  52. resriechan says:

    @ BB/VA:
    “Thanks for sharing!!”

    FWIW — & in case it’s of any reassurance, I had a very similar, & consistent response….but mine was in response to the Dread Flying Monkeys Brigade, from the Wicked Witch/ West in the Wizard of Oz.

  53. RUM-pa-da-da-da-dum-da-dum, RUM-pa-da-da-da-dum-da-dum… <—attempt at Hitchcock theme song

  54. Ruth says:

    Tiniest “critter digits” ever, so adorables.

  55. catloveschanel says:

    Oh, no, now I’m gonna obssessing…be waiting for the rest of the movie… just like that one with the Ham-n-cheese detective when we had a day without cats!
    I think Alfred Twitchcock would like italics.

  56. DogEared says:

    awwwww hi there little hammie, you don’t scare me, you are TOO. CUTE.
    p.s. nice shadow effect, picture taker.

  57. EISLEYan says:

    LOL!
    The look he has reminds me of the squirrel on Ice Age when he twitches and then gives that little “hehe” after he caused a volcano to erupt b/c of attempting to bury an acorn in the ground.

  58. catloveschanel says:

    say, where have all the kitties gone?

  59. Me says:

    Looks scared! But really cute

  60. Suh says:

    Nice dialogue. He looks afraid to go to bed. Poor little fella. Needs a candle and sleep hat.

  61. dewicasgwent says:

    @BB/VA

    Leg of lamb? wasn’t that Roald Dahl? http://www.roalddahlfans.com/shortstories/lamb.php

    @Ed

    Think you link is broken?

  62. cupcake says:

    AMAZING PHOTO! <3

  63. Nathan says:

    Oh no you don’t you little son of a bitch – that cute BS isn’t gonna work on me!

    Actually, it is :(

  64. Elanor says:

    My beloved male sapphire dwarf, Pouch, looked exactly like that. He died on Monday and I miss him so much. :’-( He leaves behind his brother, whom I’m spending lots of time with now…

  65. resriechan says:

    @ Elanor:

    our sympathies, truly & deeply. Also/ by the way: “Pouch” is a gr8t name, for a hammie!!!

  66. Elanor says:

    resriechan, thank you! That is very kind of you. Elanor x
