Seventy Four Ways to Kill a Mockingbird

What's all the hoopla about baked beans?  Sure, they're the magical fruit, but I don't think that alone warrants hoopla.  A ballyhoo, perhaps, but not hoopla.  I can think of many things worthy of hoopla that are better than baked beans.

• A fourteen hundred hour marathon of the music video for Gangnam Style
• A car show where the only cars shown off are lime green Ford Pintos
• Riding a bus to Cleveland so that you can get out and fart in Cleveland's air (baked beans might help with that, in fact)
• Listening to manatee mating calls while driving to the dentist
• Stealing diamonds from someone else's chest in Minecraft
• Changing a diaper on a chimpanzee who has eaten too many baked beans

It's odd that two of those things on that list have something to do with baked beans.  Maybe a hoopla is, in fact, in order for those wonderful things.
