We thought it would behoove us to mention that our shows this weekend (Fri/Sat, August 15-16) at the Diamond Jo Casino are ABSOLUTELY FREE. We’ll be appearing with the hilarious Larry Reeb. So if you’re anywhere near Northwood, IA this weekend, are over the age of 21, and don’t feel like going to the State […]

Song Fu #2: The Re-Fu-ening
August 14, 2008 – 4:08 am
We are once again taking part in the Masters of Song Fu songwriting challenge at Quick Stop Entertainment. Some of the same old faces are around this time in the Masters’ Circle—Jonathan Coulton, Doc Hammer—but in keeping with the tradition of adding too many villains to the story in the sequel, there’s a new, even […]
New Gallery: Rejected Snack Foods
August 13, 2008 – 10:04 am
Please to be enjoying the latest in our ongoing array of photo galleries, Rejected Snack Foods. This gallery is a bit self-referential, combining two existing works of ours: Rejected Commercial Jingles, and Snack Foods That Sound Like Sex Acts… Although the snack food industry does seem to have a fetish for naughty-sounding brands, like the […]
Show #002: Not Quite According to Plan
August 12, 2008 – 12:35 am
Hey, look: it’s the second episode of our now-weekly (theoretically) podcast, Paul and Storm Talk About Some Stuff for Five to Ten Minutes (On Average)! In this episode, not much is working entirely correctly; and Storm is nearly undone by technology and popcorn.

Show #001: Where’s Poochie?
August 8, 2008 – 9:20 am
As promised, here’s the “Podcast News, Part II” we hinted at two posts ago… Seeing as we appear to be the last two people on the planet without their own podcast, we’ve decided to finally drink the Kool-Aid and start one. Because what the world was missing was one more “two guys sitting around, talking […]
Food Review: Red Iguana
August 7, 2008 – 10:42 pm
(We’re reinstating our long-lost tradition of occasional food/restaurant reviews. This one’s from our last big road trip to the Midwest) July 18, 2008 – Red Iguana Salt Lake City, UT Mexican Rating: +2 (0 = average; +3 = lifetime memorable; -2 = physically sickened) It wasn’t a hard decision to head for this restaurant—moments after […]
Ig Nobels; Toronto Understands; Also, Dick Van Dyke

Morning announcements… We can officially announce that we’re taking part in this year’s Ig Nobel Prize Ceremony on October 2nd. We’ll be doing a short pre-ceremony concert. There will be geeks aplenty, and more than a few actual Nobel Laureates in attendance. In case you can’t make it, the ceremony will be recorded and rebroadcast […]
