A DAY OF BACON
A little boy, Curtis aka King Curtis, freaks out when a surrogate mother tosses his stash of bacon, along with a vat of what she considers “junk food,” on an episode of ABC’s Wife Swap.

Less than 24 hours to go before A DAY OF BACON launches on Call Me Stormy. Beginning at midnight, and continuing for the next 24 hours non-stop, we’ll be posting savory new clips celebrating that most sublime of deli treats — bacon. Be sure to check out the goods, and stop by often, because we’ll have a new clip every hour on the hour. There will be musical odes to bacon, stand-up riffs, memorable movie scenes and some outrageous pigouts you’ll have to see to believe. Just to get you in the mood…

Only two days to go before Call Me Stormy’s A DAY OF BACON marathon. That’s right. On Monday, September 24, we’ll bring you 24 different prime bacon clips from the movies, cartoons, music videos, you name it — a new one every hour for 24 straight hours.
Our purpose? You’ve heard of drawing a “red line” in the sand? Well, we’ll be drawing 24 of them in the form of succulent, mouth-watering bacon strips. Who are they meant for? Who ever wants to catch the dripping grease.
These are troubling times, so we all could use a heaping helping of sizzling bacon humor. Do tell your family and friends so they can get in on the fun and the free and freedom-loving group therapy. Here’s a little taste of what’s in store…as a few Canadians with a healthy appetite for comedy prepare the ultimate Great White North Hoagie.

Only three more days until Call Me Stormy’s marathon — A DAY OF BACON — a full-throttled, non-stop, 24-hour salute to bacon. Why bacon and why now?
In the words of Homer Simpson, “You know that feeling you get when a thousand knives of fire are stabbing you in the heart? I got that right now…Ooh, bacon!”
All day on Monday, September 24, we’ll offer bacon clips every hour on the hour from movies, TV shows, music videos, newsreels, every possible source we can find. We’ve scoured the planet and uncovered bacon bits from Australia, Canada, Germany and Great Britain, as well as the United States. To give you a flavor of what’s ahead, here’s Homer himself with the Spider Pig in the German “Spider Schwein” remix. Also, we give you a rousing rendition of “Spider Pig” by students from Dordt College, a reformed Christian college in Sioux City, Iowa. Enjoy, and come back Monday for lots more sizzle.

In four days, on Monday, September 24, Call Me Stormy will unveil our most ambitious project to date — A DAY OF BACON — an all-out, non-stop salute to bacon. Every hour on the hour, covering an entire 24-hour marathon, we will post a clip from a movie, cartoon, TV show, stand-up comedy routine, music video or newsreel celebrating the wonders of bacon. Why bacon and why now?
No other meat tastes as sweet as candy. None is so richly aromatic. And none so well represents our spirit at a time when we are under assault from violent extremists who are hellbent to limit our freedoms, including the choice of bacon as a breakfast entree. We could use a laugh and a pick-me-up, and bacon’s just the right thing to do the trick.
Join us on September 24 for a sizzling good time. Tell your relatives and friends — hey, even casual acquaintances — to drop by. If you’re a blogger, spread the word and feel free to post your own bacon clips on Monday or to reblog any you find on Call Me Stormy. We’ll get the ball rolling today with an early-bird sneak peek at what’s to come — represented here by Ron Swanson (Nick Offerman) from NBC’s Parks and Recreation reacting to an offer to sample vegan bacon.
