Yep, I'm as back as I'm going to get. I'm ready for PM'ing if my team wants me to.

PMs
Bad Hair Days - Kevbo
Iron Lungs - iisryan

I thought I'd be nice and give you the task an hour early.

From Waffle King to Burger King
Despite the fact that Al is a vegetarian, let’s say that he signed a deal with Burger King to make a new sandwich. However, Al’s a busy guy and he doesn’t have time to decide on what his sandwich will be. For this task, you will come up with the following things for Al’s sandwich:
1. A name for the sandwich
2. A complete ingredients list
3. A paragraph selling point (done in a format to convince people to buy this sandwich)
One judge will select which team’s sandwich better represents Al. It doesn’t have to be a burger—it can be chicken, a vegetarian sandwich, whatever. But we’re looking for the sandwich where you take a bite and think, “This reminds me of Weird Al.” The team that doesn’t evoke that emotion will go to the boardroom, where someone will get fired.

And just so you know...you don't have to design a print ad or a picture of the burger...just the three things listed above.

You have until tomorrow night at 10 PM EST to complete this task. Good luck!

Do we have to be realistic? Can we use things like rubberbands, gelaton and concrete, for example?

If you can convince people to buy a sandwich with things like that, go for it.

I have an announcement. Mr. Trump, fire me. I'm finished. I didn't have enough time to do this task for my team and so I have nothing to submit. I simply can't go on in the game anymore. The play is next week and I'm just too busy. So, I quit. I apologize to my teammates. I know this looks bad, considering I also quit All Stars. But I took on too many tasks and I simply can't do them all. I really am truly, deeply sorry.
Oh by the way, I've cracked the code.

I was about to say, the Bad Hair Days didn't send in an entry on time. But by request, as much as I hate to say it:

Kevbo, you're fired. :(

The next task will be posted on Friday. Should the Iron Lungs lose the task, iisryan will be exempt.

In case you wanted to see what the Iron Lungs came up with, here it is.

The Biggest Burger of Sauerkraut in Minnesota!

This delicious burger is choked full of scruptious sauerkraut and stuffed with the very best starving, crazed weasel meat in the country! Each bite is even more delicious than the one before it, as you start to find our other mouth-watering ingredients, including Twinkies fitted with weiners and topped with the best creme cheese this side of Albuquerque and delectable, crisp texture with Raisin Bran cereal. This is truely a burger worthy of the king of comedy, "Weird Al" Yankovic, because he built it!

"You know, this is my burger, but looking back, it really..."
--"Weird Al" Yankovic

"...Look like..."
--New York Times

"...Something..."
--9 / 10 dentists

"...That would be..."
--Playboy laundry detergent ad

"...good to eat!"
--Well, we made this last one up...
