Monetizing my joke site?

    I haven't been paying close attention to my joke site and apparently traffic has gone haywire to it. I have already eaten up 80% of my bandwidth this month, so I had to upgrade it. Good thing I have a VPS, so its free for me since I don't use it all anyways.

    Good news.
    The traffic stats:

    The bad news.
    The money. I think I make about $2/day off it. From adsense clicks on my review pages.

    The weird news. I rank #3 for "brokeback mountain jokes" in google, and to my surprise, it brings in a buttload of traffic. Pun intended :p

    I've never tried to monetize the site (seriously before - adsense is mainly an experiment), as its been really a fun side project for me, that I figured would be a loser, but its getting a tad out of hand.

    Any idea on how to make this thing at least break even? I figure $50-100/month will make me happy.
