Why is it....

...that corn is becoming popular in dessert items?

Recently I ate at Uchiko in Austin and they have a corn dessert that I might have enjoyed had they not told me it was dessert. Then that week I saw 2 episodes of Iron Chef where 3 out of the 4 chefs created a corn dessert (flan and custards). Finally on this week's Food Network Star contestant Justin D (who is kinda adorable) made a corn basil pudding.

Can someone please explain?

Why is it....

...that in a bathroom full of 15+ stalls, we are the only two people in it, and you choose the stall right next to me? If someone can answer this, please do explain. Thanks!
