Since 1993, the Onion has had the distinct pleasure of featuring one of America's premier scribes, Jim Anchower. A product of Madison, Wisconsin, Anchower came to America's Finest News Source after several years washing dishes at the Come Back Inn. His column, "The Cruise," has since become nothing less than a national institution. Over the years, The Onion's beloved columnist has chimed in on love ("I'm Totally Dating A Black Chick"), leisure ("Vacation Time, Hombres!"), lessons ("You Gotta Be Careful With Fireworks"), entertainment ("Anyone Got A TV To Spare?") and the general struggles of day-to-day life within the modern American landscape ("My Weed Connection Is Dried Up"). Anchower himself urges you invest in this "Best Of" collection because, frankly, he could use the cash.
