The new sewing machine is working out swell. After being prodded enough by friends who really don't know what they're talking about, I'm taking their poorly thought-out advice and putting stuffed creatures up for sale. Right now, they are available exclusively at Blue Child in the Kunsthofpassage.

Are they hard to make, you might ask? No, not these ones; it just takes a little time is all. What kind of jackass would film himself in time lapse to demonstrate this point? This one.

If I get the connection issues worked out between mister camcorder and mister laptop, I'll hopefully have a nother one ready soon, the making of lil Satan.

But I really should get out into the mild weather while it lasts; this winter has indeed been a coy little B-I-double hockey sticks.

File under F for freaky stuff you learn from your students.

Mr B's girlfriend's first husband was a nuclear physicist working the the Soviet Union. That's how she met Mongolia's ambassador to Germany; he studied in the GDR and was also a physicist in the Soviet Union in the same town as her then-husband.

The Ambassador lives in Berlin in a tent made of thick camel fleece. Mr B's girlfriend is going to Berlin to visit him this weekend, pictures of the tent have been promised. Check back on Thursday.

Also, the Swiss German word for chicken is "Mistkratzerli", literally manure scratcher. Soup's on.

What is this crap?
-- Michael Seezen

This was the contents of an email I got from my brother this morning. At first I thought that my Christmas package had finally arrived at his house and he didn't care for his presents.

As it turns out, he was referring to a chain letter based off this site: how many of me?.

Based off of --incomplete-- census info, the chain letter tells us that there is only one Roxie Lumpkin, there are only 155 people in the U. S. named Susan Craft, and you can go on and add to it too:

53. There are 817 people in the USA named Susan
Crawford-WOW!!!
yes, wow indeed. Or:

34. There are 2,278 people in the USA with the
name Gail Smith.
... and they all suck.

Maybe Mike was just annoyed because this information was already available for years on www.whofuckingcares.com, or maybe it was the fact that "Seezen" is missing from the list. So I went looking up for other unique names.

As it turns out, There is 1 person in the U.S. named Dick Dick. Hot damn! Ron and I have decided to make this man an honorary member of Dude Dude Chick and send him a free CD.

Finding him might be difficult, though; a search engine won't get you the results you are looking for -- which is also true if you try to find Dude Dude Chick's website by searching -- so we are going have to go to more drastic means, like using www.nahscrewit.com.

Holy Smokes-- did someone say CDs? We now have em online -- the first link is on-demand burning (sharp looking cover) and the second link are the ones I burn myself (homemade, baby).
