Just a reminder to anybody living near where Poe is buried, it’s his 200th birthday… The toaster might do something pretty significant on this benchmark, so go and watch!

And here’s me thinking the “Poe Toaster” is a device for making images of Poe appear on browned bread.

Uh, what?
And, Joe, what makes you think the toaster doesn’t toast bread with an image of Edgar?

Oh, that’s right. I remember that now. (I’ll blame lack of sleep from staying up and watching bad movies last night for forgetting it.)
Still not as much fun as a Poe toaster would be, though. Especially not one that just shows up!

Mostly that it’s referred to by the personal pronoun “he” in the poll!
But wait—I do remember one Milton the Toaster. . . .

Shouldn’t the Poe Toaster be called a Poester?

Well, if he left one of Idaho’s Finest on his grave, he’d be a Poe Tater…

Too bad Baltimore doesn’t have an NBA team anymore. They could be the Poedunks.
