This is a great opportunity to own a frosted corn flake shaped like the great state of Illinois! The corn flake is larger than your average flake, measuring about 2 inches in length and 1 3/8 inches in width, and is just lightly frosted. Its large size adds impact to its unusual shape. This is a must have item for any Illinois lover, collector of food lookalikes, or anyone who desires a unique conversation item!

Hey, I'm pretty sure that Will is all three of those!

If this flake can somehow be purchased and put into the possession of the Fighting Illini, that NIT Tournament trophy is as good as theirs.

Expect, in the next week, Madison Square Garden to be haunted by the ghost of a rather pissed Barbaro; the overtime in the Rangers-Sabres game yesterday caused the Barbaro documentary to be postponed and rescheduled for the vastly unworthy CNBC this Friday. Jeez, why don't you just put the damned thing on Versus? CNBC? Maybe Jim Cramer can host.

The cancellation didn't affect the weepy tributes.

Deb Gratton of Fort Bragg, N.C., Patti Boprey of Rochester, N.Y., and Lenny Hall and Yvonne Splichal, both of Las Vegas, felt like old friends when they met for the first time this weekend. [At Delaware Park] "It feels like we've known each other for 10 years," said Splichal. "With Barbaro as our link, it wasn't hard to bond."

We do hope that April 29 will remain a national holiday, and those with cat-hair-littered sweaters will still gather from miles around to "bond." It's the Horse Woodstock!
