Nice pun, although I think if you give a hamster a ham, he will eat it.

I have a jacket with the Java logo on it, which I got when I visited JavaOne this year.

I was in a cafe a few weeks ago and someone saw my jacket and said "Javascript!". I said "No, Java!" and got a blank stare back. I didn't bother to try to explain to him what the difference is.

Or as Mark Twain (would have) said, Java is to Javascript as lightning is to the lightning bug.
