In celebration of our nation’s birthday, we offer you a FREE! FREE! FREE! thematically-appropriate song of explosives safety—or the lack thereof: Ten-Finger Johnny. (We’d call it a “ten-finger discount,” but that would be incredibly lame) Please share it with all your patriotic friends.
Have a safe and happy 4th!

As has been mentioned on our podcasts recently, we’ve switched to a new web hosting service, Laughing Squid.
To celebrate, and to test our how robust their “cloud hosting” is, we’ve asked a bunch of our popular Twitter friends to have their followers come visit our site all at once at 3 pm (EST). If you’re seeing this post, then we’re still up and running, and hooray for our side.
If not, then some servers in DFW somewhere are smoking and/or on fire.

We’ve been rather remiss in discussing our recent activities here on the website; but hell, we’ve been busy. Come see what we’ve been up to the past couple weeks…
We started things off in Dallas on Wednesday, May 13, with the first of a three-show stint with Beardy McInternet. Easy enough: good crowd, nice venue, and Mai Tais. Nothing terribly out of the ordinary. (Except for the ASL interpretation, which was quite cool)
