Pulkovo International Airport(aka Pulkovo 2)St. Petersburg, Russiawww.pulkovoairport.ruWhere is it?After passing through security, you go up a set of escalators and immediately enter the airport's modest duty free shopping area, which consists of about six stalls, each of which houses the same or similar-looking Russian heritage souvenirs (vodka, matreshka -- or nesting -- dolls, etc.).All the stalls are found along the wall opposite the end of the escalator. The toilets, while facing these stalls, will be to your left, across a smal sitting area and beneath a bright yellow sign reading, "WC."What's it like?Despite St. Petersburg being a city of 5 million (and the third largest city in Europe, after London and Moscow), its international airport is surprisingly small, housing only eight gat

Fort Pierce, FL (ThaLunatic Daily) -- Mary E. Fasnacht, a 19 year old Florida woman was arrested and charged with child neglect after police found her 1 year old baby living in a filthy house that was cluttered with trash and spoiling food.On an anonymous tip that reported that a child was living in filthy conditions, police officers and child welfare workers were dispatched to the home of Mary Fasnacht. When they arrived, they found a home that was "Not fit for human residence," according to the arresting affidavit.Police characterized the two bedroom house as a place where "no child could remain healthy," noting that there was no running water and the home smelled of human waste."By the level of filth and smell coming from the home, it appeared from outside of the home, to be a dange

Okay you've got to hear me on this because if you don't, O Mighty Internet, who will? Andrew's even out of town so he can't hear me bawl and I've got to vent to someone. How often do you hear me rant and rave anyway? This is historic I tell you.Six years ago we bought new kitchen appliances and our refrigerator and wall oven were both from Frigidaire. A couple years ago the fridge broke (in essence totaled) but it was a faulty part that Frigidaire agreed to replace under warranty. A freak of nature you say? I think not because this January the kids were making shrinky dinks and the oven blew out--just stopped working completely.Great. Just great. To top it off the appliance repair service I'd used before was no longer in business which meant I'd have to go with Harold's Appliance Ser

Apparently Buenos Aires isn't the only city with air quality problems (see previous post). London has been the victim of manure like air blowing in from somewhere in Europe. It's suspected that pollution from a factory across the channel is to blame. Hmm.. I think I'll take smokey air over manure air any day!From todays Mirror Newsapaper - UKEurope blamed for foul stench over Southern EnglandA foul manure-like stench hanging over parts of Southern England yesterday has been blamed on Europe.Weather experts said east-blowing winds carried the nasty niff across the Channel as calls flooded in from London, Kent, Hertfordshire, Berkshire, East Anglia and Devon.The Met Office said the smell is believed to have been caused by a combination of agricultural and industrial pollution - with pig m

Parks and crazies. The two go together like peanut butter and bananas. Like fried okra and ham. Like beans and cornbread.Amos and his mama traveled far and wide today to Rocky Mountain Lake Park, about 4.5 to 5 miles round trip. We huffed it with the trusty jogging stroller to the park, then Phil met us there on his dandy bike. We ate a nice picnic on a table sprayed with graffiti, then we played on the playground. I think I was the only mother there among about five nannies. Then, a horde of 9-month-old babies showed up (not on their own, mind you). It blew Amos' mind.Phil trucked back home on his bike while Amos and I played some more. He giggled and squealed while swinging, and he kicked at my face when I helped him to hold on to a higher level of the jungle gym. Parental abus

Sent in by Mike ZI have just recently come to my good senses concerning religion and god. Religion is horrible and there is no god. I was raised the first 18 years of my life in a United Pentecostal Church, and those were the most awful years of my life. I am gay and going to church three times a week, sitting there listening to how I was going to hell unless I changed my ways, was the most unbelievably horrible mind fuck anyone could receive.I was told that I was an abomination and a "stink in god's nostrils." The thing was, I knew I was gay and I prayed and prayed to be "delivered." I had preachers try to "cast out the homosexual demon." Nothing worked. Nothing I ever did at church ever changed the feelings I had when I left the building.After I got out of the South and moved on I knew

Sarah Jessica Parker bagged the role of a lifetime with her iconic character Carrie Bradshaw in the hit series Sex and the City. As Carrie, SJP made millions of women re-think the way they dress and look with her quirky ensembles and designer threads.So when Maxim voted her the ‘Unsexiest women alive’, her disappointment is completely understandable. SJP is rumored to have had a rhinoplasty to narrow down her nose which by unanimous opinion was some very good plastic surgeryPut her next to the once quite passable Courtney Love and you would have thought this mad rocker would have bagged the ‘honor’. But guess Love will have to wait for next year by when she might make some more bad decisions and get a bad plastic surgeon or a worse boyfriend.Plastic surgery is not just for everyone

Stink bait is a kind of bait you can make right at home with common household ingredients. It’s called “stink” bait because, well… it stinks! That’s why catfish love it. Keep that in mind, and you can get creative with everyday kitchen stuff. Everybody’s got their own stink bait recipes and they [...]

I think the Canucks wagon just loaded up again. There was screams of joy all the way down Robson Street after the game was over. There was a bagpiper playing tunes streetside while Canuck fans yelled "hey hey hey!" Good times!Moments later my wife and myself came across Jim Hughson walking down the street. No kidding. I just said: "Hey Jim Hughson!" and that was that. I had my camera out and everything but didn't feel like bothering him because he looked like he wanted to be incognito.I ran into John McKeachie up in the box suite hallway as well.Anyways, here are my thoughts of the game and everything surrounding it.The pessimism was all over the papers and on the street today leading up to the game. There was an employee at Game On Sports in Metrotown who shared my positivity. He was the

When you own and operate an online business, your number one concern is most likely how to get more visitors to your money making website so that they can see the products and services you offer, and hopefully make a purchase. When you think of visitors you might think of customers walking into a store, and in order for them to find your store, you have to have some advertisements running so people know you exist, what you offer, where you are, and how to get to you. Internet businesses are really no different, except that the way you reach an online market may be a little different from the offline markets. You can post ads around the net, and you can put up squeeze pages to get web surfers to sign up for your newsletter. But what you really need to think about and focus a lot of your ene

Total Wine & More - Orlando2712 East Colonial DriveOrlando, FL USA 32803www.totalwine.comWhere is it?Unlike Total Wine in Raleigh, the bathrooms here do not require the visitor to venture through the entire store and past the cashiers before being granted the privilege of accessing them (meaning you don't have to buy something to use them).Simply enter the warehouse, turn right at the first corner you see and head past the coolers on your right. A hallway will open up on your right; it leads to the bathrooms, employee break room, and stocking areas for those coolers.What's it like?This branch of the mammoth wine, booze and beer megastore chain has a similar design to the Raleigh store, though this one has a wider floor plan than than that one, which was longer than it was wide.

Total Wine & More - Raleigh TriangleTriangle Plaza6105 Capital BlvdRaleigh, NC 27616www.totalwine.comWhere is it?Proving that they must be for customers only, the toilets here are found near the exit, on the other side of the cashiers.To get to them, you need to enter the store through the main entrance, go left, pass through an empty cashier line (or, if they are blocked, wait through a full one) and then take an immediate right, and go down a hallway composed solely of drywall. The bathrooms are down that hallway.What's it like?This mammoth wine and beverage warehouse (part of a chain throughout the southeast U.S.) on Raleigh's bustling Capital Boulevard offers a classy, comprehensive environment that wine, booze and beer lovers will find hard to hate.

Bliss Under-Army Antiperspirant Gel…can help. This mint-scented antiperspirant is the Season’s perfect accessory if you sometimes get that (oh, so attractive) nervous perspiration scent. It’s not necessarily the most politically correct gift for the Holiday, but maybe you can wrap it and slip it into the work cubby of that person in the office that takes their weekly shower, whether they need it or not. $18.00 Available at blissworld.com and at Nordstrom.com If you don’t like using an antiperspirant, but you still don’t want to smell like a dead skunk by the end of the day, try the Darphin, HydroRelax Gentle Deodorant Stick I’ve used this deodorant personally for the past 7-8 years and love it. It has a pleasant scent that doesn’t interfere with any fragrance and it doesn’t bother my overly sensitive skin. $22.00 Available at Bergdorf Goodman and Neiman Marcus stores 8 years, antiperspirant, bergdorf goodman, bliss, blissworld, cubby, darphin, dead skunk, deodo

There are a lot of things I love about being the boss. Partially, I’ve always been a bit of a control freak, so I like that. Also, I like getting a say-so, a voice. I like seeing my work do something, seeing things in the company change because of what I did. And, of course, I like having the big desk and the window and the pay. But lest I paint too rose-colored of a view for you, let me tell you what I do not like about being a boss: 1. Being responsible for my employees’ tardiness (I’ll spare you the details, but this is much better now that we punch in.) 2. Having employees who will not listen (Nodding heads do not equal comprehension.) 3. Telling people to quit goofing off (Remember the study hall monitor? Yeah, that’s me now.) 4. Not getting the camaraderie with coworkers in the same way 5. Taking responsibility when an employee messes up 6. Swallowing my pride when I make my own mistakes Back to the pluses, I’ve learned a lot (I think.. and am still

The Stinking Rose325 Columbus AvenueSan Francisco 94133http://www.thestinkingrose.com/Where is it? When you go through the front door there is a bar in front of you. Head towards the bar and then left. The door to the rest rooms is in on the right in the corner. Go through the door and you’ll find the toilets across the hallway.What’s it like?The Stinking Rose is by all means a favourite of many people I know. No less than 3 people had, unprompted, told me to eat in this place before I got across the States. Taking their name from their most used ingredient, Garlic, this place prides itself on using the vegetable in every meal they offer. Does that sound appetising? Well I wasn’t so sure.One of the first things you notice though is that this place is fun. They have the longest garlic braid (348 feet long). And they also have a garlic making machine (well I think its that) over the bar.The food was also excellent. The 40-clove roast chicken with garlic mash was one of the best mea

It feels like I've been complaining about airlines a lot lately. But in hindsight, it could be worse. I could have my sister's flying karma.In September when she came to visit me, her flight back was delayed for hours because of some mechanical problem.* Well, that's nothing compared to what happened on her business trip this week. On both legs of this trip, she had connecting flights. On the way up, her first flight was late, she was in the last row of the plane, and she had to run across the entire airport to make her connection and wound up missing it by two minutes. Her luggage, however, managed to make the flight in time.She said she was in tears. I chalk that up to being a work travel novice.But that's not the worst part of the story. The worst part was that on her way home today, the first leg of her flight was canceled because of a mechanical problem. They booked her on an alternate flight, through D.C., which was then delayed to the point that it didn't look like

The occasion is an "intimate woman's song set" on The Red Peters Comedy Music Show, and Red demonstrates his intuitive understanding of a woman's wants and needs with one more play of my own Her Shit Don't Stink. New episodes of Red's show appear the first Monday of each month on the Sirius Radio Howard 101 Channel. Red's been featuring tracks from The Best Of The Red Peters Comedy Music Hour, Volume 1, which offers Her Shit Don't Stink and 18 more fucked-up songs, as Red would say. Here's more of Red's Boston Chowder-fueled folk wisdom: "This is Red Peters sayin', Keep takin the pills, and don't scratch." No wonder the women love him! Her Shit Don't Stink: (1:40).

MICHAEL MINA BellagioBellagio3600 Las Vegas Blvd. SouthLas Vegas, NV 89109http://www.michaelmina.net/Where is it?The restaurant itself is located behind the Bellagio Conservatory, in between the Dale Chihuly store and the hotel's 24-hour kitchen, the Bellagio Cafe.Once in the restaurant, head all the way to the rear of the place, rounding the open kitchen and slipping into the rear of the dining room. Keep steering left until you see the back entrance to the kitchen (which at this point is closed). Head that way, but turn right before reaching the kitchen door. Go down that hallway there and you'll find the bathrooms at the end.What's it like?This is a classy, high-minded and somewhat stuffy restaurant overlooking the Bellagio pool, with an emphasis on seafood and modernist plate presentation. That means you'll get very fresh seafood concoctions but they are served in a manner that makes the food look more like works of art on the plate than actual food. Some people like that sort

I have to confess that I have a soft spot for Beech trees and their leaves. They aren't the most colourful of leaves, but I just love the pale green and yellow and I don't think you can beat them on a beautiful sunny Autumn day like today's, they just glow. My walk in the woods today was in Abbey Woods, this is a wood that surrounds the ruined Haughmond Abbey , just outside of Shrewsbury,Shropshire. Abbey wood is mainly a mixed deciduous wood, with plenty of beech, oak, horse chestnut and hawthorn around the edges. There is one patch of pine trees that will be harvested at sometime. It wasn't long after taking this picture of the beech trees all in a row, that I started to smell a bit of a pong, I couldn't quite identify it but it definitely had a rotten meat tinge to it. I eventually tracked down the smell and it was coming from a mushroom I haven't seen or smelled before, a Stinkhorn Mushroom ~ Phallus Impudicus. It certainly lives up to its Latin and common name. The top of th

In the coming weeks, I'm going to be traveling a lot. By my count, I have five trips between now and Thanksgiving, not including Thanksgiving, and two trips thereafter. All but two -- including Thanksgiving -- are work trips. I am referring to this period of my life as my "World Tour." In actuality, it's a North American Tour, but why split hairs?Today, I went to go book the first of the work trips, to a large city in the southwestern part of the country. Because of where I work, not only is it budget-constrained, but we have contracts with various airlines, and we can only get exceptions for very limited purposes. The city to which I'm going is a hub for one airline -- but said airline is not one of our contracted airlines. So, I have to take a connecting flight, which means, that, at a minimum, my trip will take around six hours. Which also means that, if I don't want to spend an extra night in a hotel, I'll have to be prepared to leave the downtown area around 2pm. Ul

Deke Skeever, owner of an adult toy/erotic goods store in San Francisco called The Pansy's Saddle has had a series of complaints and possible lawsuits lobbed his way this past week because of a product he sells — an inflatable sex toy designed to resemble Ann Coulter, the blond Fascist Aryan media shrew. "I still don't see what the problem is. It's just your run-of-the mill sex toy. I've sold thousands of the same model altered to look like Pamela Anderson, Sharon Stone, and Bill Parcells." The problem, it appears, stems from the fact that most of the people who bought the toy find it to be anatomically (if not politically) incorrect. "It's got a goddamn vagina!" Barked Lowell Puckfist, an assistant district attorney from nearby Campbell, CA. "Why in hell would I want an Ann Coulter doll with a vagina?! My Scooter Libby doll doesn't have one, my Barry Goldwater doll doesn't have one, even my John Fucking Birch doll doesn

I'm on the phone with Red Peters when his call waiting beeps. He asks me to hang on for a moment. "Brenda's not here," Red says after a pause. "She's takin' a dump." "Who's Brenda?" I ask when Red returns. "I have no fuckin' idea," he says. "Wrong number." That's Red Peters, the smoothly profane songwriter and performer and host of the Red Peters Comedy Music Hour on Sirius Radio Howard 101. Now, just in time for the anniversary of the Twin Towers disaster, that enterprise is set to yield The Best Of The Red Peters Comedy Music Hour, Volume 1, from Oglio Records. The album, available online, at record stores (if you can find one) and on iTunes, features 19 tracks from the show, most notably my own Her Shit Don't Stink. Watch for the new album on 9/11! Red calls his collection "the filthiest and funniest collection of songs ever recorded." But you knew he'd say that. Release date is September 11, 2007, better known as 9/11.

We all know that taking zinc supplements can help with foot odor. It has also been found that zinc can help you get over a cold faster. Now researchers at Wayne State University School of Medicine in Detroit have found that people who took 45mg of zinc daily for a year got one third fewer colds and respiratory infections than a group taking a placebo. Zinc takers also had lower levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, hormonelike chemicals that can trigger cell damage and illness. So if you have been prone to getting colds check out adding zinc to your diet.

The Awful Show, Episode 55 Date: July 7, 2007 Full episode: The Awful Show, Number 55 Is Alive Summary: Four 30-something East-Coast refugees from college radio, now saddled with day jobs and domestic responsibilties, get together once a week for a marathon session of irreverent and irrelevant Guy Talk. Every month, 11,000 (or more) listeners (mostly guys) in the U.S., the U.K., Australia and Japan download the recorded session to iPod, as background music for their school, work, hip-hop and wife-centric lives. This is The Awful Show, featuring Tha Mike, Joel, Keyz and Nerraux, representing podcasting at its podcasting-ness. Better not let the wife hear you say that For the latest episode, the gang features Her Shit Don't Stink, which, I'm pleased to say, strikes a universal chord with guys. To wit: Tha Mike: You know, I know a lot of women that think their shit don't stink. I do. Keyz: Most of them? Nerraux: That song reminds me of, I wish you could play licensed music a

Dave Praeger really knows his shit. A political scientist at heart, Dave scours the Web for a lot of socially relevant crap and crams it all into his popular news site poopreport.com. But spend a few moments wading through the effluence and you'll find, perhaps suprisingly, that poop is a deep subject, indeed. I mean, who wouldn't be impressed by these astonishing tales of mankind's valiant efforts to manage its production of raw sewage? Inspiring stuff. And now for our song But Dave also displays a keen nose for poop culture. For the latest example, check out today's B.M. Newswire, featuring my album cover and a nice note about my comedy music ballad Her Shit Don't Stink. Personally, I feel vindicated by this recognition from the leading Internet authority on excrement. Feral House (or should that be Fecal House?) just published Dave's new book about poop! It's a real book, reviewed by Publisher's Weekly and everything! Dave stashes his daily news dump in the Poop Repo

There's the famous KISS rule - keep it simple stupid. I should have observed that rule when I chose the appliances for my kitchen. The Viking Convection Oven and Stove has been especially bad requiring a number of repairs over the last 7 years. Viking simply stinks from my experiences.The worst was New Year's Eve a few years ago when something melted inside the stove's electrical guts and not only cut short the cooking of the hor'dourves but also destroyed the fuse in the fuse box in the basement and electrical outlet in the kitchen (thank goodness the Toast-R-Over was available as an understudy). Most recently the electric fired ignition burned out for the oven, so no oven until the repairman gets here (there is no pilot light on these Viking ovens). Through the years, the cooktop burner ignitions have failed - nothing like lighting your expensive stove with matches. There was also another time when I used the broiler, which is electric, and it ended up again broiling the electric

Podshow Music Rewind, Episode 56 Date: June 13, 2007 Full episode: Podshow Music Rewind, Episode 56 Summary: I sent Podshow Music Rewind host Marcus Couch a segment from one of my favorite podcasts, Schnauzer Logic, all wrapped up with a logo, program description and everything, and what did he do? He stripped the witty commentary by Robin Diane Goldstein, extracted my song Her Shit Don't Stink, and pasted my tune into his digest of some of the best podcasts and Podsafe Music on the Web. Sorry about that, Schnauzer Logic. Suckers! Podshow Music Rewind has appeared irregularly this year, while Couch devoted his attention to The Scene Zine, a hard rock and heavy metal podcast. He's recently stepped up the schedule, however, posting three new episodes of PMR during the last two weeks of June. The June 13 edition also features an excerpt from Jack Elias's Get Jacked!, a podcast that has twice featured another Ken Turetzky song, My Fat Ass Itches. Couch clearly knows podcast qua

Ever want to know what painkillers, a bottle of vodka, and botched breast implants smell like? Just take a whiff of Paula Abdul's new signature fragrance and you will find out. Yep that's right folks ... another celebrity branded perfume, as if our fragrance hangover wasn't bad enough with the lingering aroma of breast milk and malt liquo,r aka Britney Spears' perfume. And my nostrils are still bleeding from the stench of Marc Antony's morning breath and drag queen approved cosmetics aka J Lo's Glow perfume. Now, I have to be sick from Paula's perfume. Great. Just when I thought my day couldn't get any worse. I would imagine if you were to actually spray this perfume on your body you would probably end up with a DUI (if you watch this video, you will know exactly what I mean). I watched the video twice and I still can't figure out the name of the perfume through Paula's drunken banter, I think she said Love Spell or something that has to do with love. But honestly, who care

JERUSALEM -- Jerusalem’s Church of the Holy Sepulchre made the news in 2004 because of continued petty territorial fighting among the six Christian denominations that share management of the church, which is home to some of Christianity’s holiest sites, including that of Christ’s resurrection. Some three years later, nothing has changed. As Easter approached this year, three of the groups that

Big Phil's Love Parade, Show 107 Date: April 5, 2007. Full episode: Show 76: I Stink, Therefore I Am Summary: Big Phil's in the bathroom this week, making moist, airy sounds while "The Morning Poop" drones in the background, ostensibly dissecting the humanitarian crisis in Darfur. Her Shit Don't Stink has never been so embarrassed by its surroundings. Whatever would inspire a program host to abuse my tender love song in such a manner? Surely not the title. Thankfully, Big Phil refrains from blasting another wet one until the last note fades. He follows up with a theme-appropriate melody from from Lynn Julian, If Farts Were Made of Super Ball Stuff. Finally, a noticeably mellow Phil stumbles over the credits: "We heard from Ken Turzetzky...." He'll be here all week, folks. Listen: (0:45).

Today had the potential to leave me crying in the dirt. It truly did. But somehow I find myself in a fantastic mood as I sit to write this post.Here's how it went:A 90 minute wait at the OB/Gyn for a 30 second check up to hear my baby's heartbeat.My midwife telling me that my HMO had no records of my medical care or pregnancy before January 2007.Because of this computer error, my due date of March 31st as determined by a November ultrasound they no longer have record of was irrelevant. She insisted I still have two weeks left of this pregnancy before induction is necessary.The induction is scheduled for Friday the 13th.On the drive home, a four car pile-up created a ten mile stretch of stop-and-go traffic which I winced through while having heavy contractions.But here's the part where all the pain went away:I had barely passed the accident and was primed to kill when the song came on the radio.

{summary}My house stinks, but it’s a good stink. We had kielbasa last night, and not wanting to use last night to break in the charcoal grill for the first time this year I just boiled them and then seared them with my cast iron grill pan. We used to have this awesome stove that had a built-in grill and an exhaust system that vented under the house. Unfortunately, it was a relic the previous owners left and it was fucking disgusting, not to mention hard to use because it only had two burners. The cost of adding a two-burner cartridge and replacing the grill half would be the same as the cost of buying a new stove. So we bought a new stove. Unfortunately, we have to use the vent fan on the microwave to circulate the air when we fry things. It doesn’t work very well. It sort of just blows smoke around the kitchen. It’s a good thing Rosco doesn’t have a decent bedtime, because he’d certainly be kept awake by the s

Eighteen months. It's been eighteen months.Dozens of families evacuated from a FEMA trailer park that had been plagued by sewage leaks and power outages were in temporary homes Monday, and the Federal Emergency Management Agency said it had requested work permits to dismantle the site this week.Many of the residents were moved to other FEMA locations in the Hammond area, agency spokesman Manuel Broussard said."Some families were concerned about schooling for their children, and we have found housing for them close to their schools," Broussard said. Likewise, he said, the agency has kept people who had jobs in Hammond close to town.For Allsee Tobias, though, it still felt like yet another failure of the federal government to help Hurricane Katrina victims, even if the goal was to safeguard their health."They know how to put me out, but they don't know how to help me out. That's how I look at it," said Tobias, who lost his New Orleans home in Katrina's flooding and then was told to

After I posted this Q&A with Laduma, he mentioned a STINK TANK documentary that had been directed/produced by Ellen O'Brien. Embedded below, it more formally introduces STINK TANK producer Mitch Pond (aka Man Mantis)--and goes much deeper into the genesis of Laduma's multiple MC personas.

I'd initially asked Laduma if he'd be open to a discussion of freestyling--responding to a series of questions that had occurred to me after catching a Soul Sessions "topical battle" in December. While there was plenty of technique-parsing,the conversation was ultimately much broader. So it also serves to preview madisonhiphop.com's King ...

Is it me or do all handy men stink?! Or was it just my luck today?Having moved into a new condo things are still being fixed that were on my PDI form so I got the call this morning that they wanted to fix my bathroom locks... I rush home and the men arrive... All of a sudden my condo smelled like poo! Was it me? Was it the garbage? I was so embarrassed to have these people over with a smell like this but wait ... me or my house has never smelled like anything other then roses :) As I approached the area the man was working I get a whiff of what was sure to make me pass out if I had stood there any longer! The thing is it wasn't just a B.O smell or anything it was like he had rolled around in dog crap and let it dry before he came to work!

AC Podcast, Vocal mixing and tape stop effect with pitch shifting Date: February 14, 2007 Full episode: AC Podcast, Episode 50 Summary: Chris Hambly hosts the AC Sound Engineering Podcast from the UK, and I highly recommend this program for all home recording enthusiasts who prefer their tutorials delivered in a decisively British brogue. Still, even when you can't understand what anyone is saying, you can tell they're having a really good time! Throughout the show, Chris and his chatty guests provide examples of various techniques to improve the music they record in living rooms, bedrooms, basements and occasionally, an actual studio. There's nothing like the surreal thing The lesson plan also happens to include some of the finest examples of podsafe music available. Chris included Her Shit Don't Stink on this week's playlist, to show the kids how it's really done. Markedly amplifying the peaks with digital compression (I know a thing or two about audio editing myself),

Her Shit Don't Stink made its formal podcast debut July 2 with Episode 54 of The Mike and Michelle Show. Mike dedicated the song to Michelle in response to her "'tude" regarding film director M. Night Shyamalan and "anyone running for president whose name isn't Hillary Clinton." Michelle replied in protest, "I know that my shit does stink." The hosts commented on the song throughout, with Michelle praising Daria McBee's haunting background vocals. Mike called Her Shit Don't Stink "a classic." The amiable "Mike and Michelle" debuted in Fall 2005 and originates from San Bernardino, Calif. The pair claim 400-500 downloads for each episode. During Episode 1 introductions, they insisted that neither are they married nor is Michelle Michael's "fag hag." For the most recent show, Mike selected Her Shit Don't Stink from the Podsafe Music Network, where I've made two tracks available for all podcasters. (Podcasters who use songs from PMN must provide their tracklists.) Mike intr

For wine lovers who hatted to see the increased use of composite corks at the expense of natural cork, the massive wave of synthetic corks was unsettling. No sooner had they started to come to grips with plastic corks then they started to experience the rapid rise of the screw cap. At several recent dinners in upscale restaurants I've seen guests give an odd glance as a waiter unscrewed the cap of a bottle of wine. Most of these wines have been whites from New Zealand and Australia, but producers of reds from California and elsewhere are turning to screw caps in massive numbers. We have all been assured that a screw cap does a perfectly fine job sealing a bottle of wine. Now a new study suggests that it might do too good of a job.British researchers found that 2 per cent of screw cap bottles had a rotten egg odor when they were opened. The smell is produced by a chemical process called reduction that takes place in most wines in a bottle. The problem is that the screw cap apparently s

Chris at Come to the Table recently posted a cute story. Read it and come back for my take. The comment I left said, "Next time I am tempted to yell, I will think about how I might respond if there were baby skunks around." Why should I treat skunks with more consideration than I treat my own kids? When I yell at them, they may hurt on the inside, even if they don't give off an offensive

Keep that in mind, and you can get creative with everyday kitchen stuff. Everybody’s got their own stink bait recipes and they [...]
