Long-time listeners know I have a peculiar fascination with all things
related to tailgating. In the oft-unpeculiar state of Indiana, George Goble
(no, not the flat-topped comic from Hollywood Squares) discovered the ultimate
way to start your charcoal, demonstrated memorably at The
Ultimate Grill-Lighting Page. Winner of the 1996 IgNobel Prize for
Physics. And remember -- don't presoak your briquettes!!

Cyberpets
invade the Net: Dogz - they
live in your computer, but you buy 'em like a dog, walk 'em like a dog,
and ctrl-alt-del the cyberturds just like with a dog...kudos (I think)

his pop out of $20 for a pooch!
Land of the Lunchboxes
- retreat into the warm bosom of your idealized past...with bad food and
good art, as well as the clean version of Felix
the Cat.
Encouraged by a former flight attendant (who said he performed this
stunt in the air!), I burned non-dairy coffee creamer live during the
show. (Light your lighter and sprinkle the stuff off to the side.) John/Cathy
West have topped me by pointing my web browser to The
T.W.I.N.K.I.E.S. Project.
Now that Jerry Garcia's coda is chromed, where will Cherry Garcia go
when it dies? Ben
