Friday, May 9th, 2008Monthly Mashup Vol. 12 - The Shoot Back Mixtape: I Am Sean Bell
Monday, May 5th, 2008Instead of just 1 mashup this month, you instead get 7. That’s right, seven. I present to you The Shoot Back Mixtape - a collaboration with troublmedia.com.
Three police officers shot Sean Bell 50 times, killing him on the eve of his wedding night, and wounding his two passengers, later determining that all 3 men were unarmed. From the night of this social atrocity to the not guilty verdict 10 days ago, emotions have been fierce. Sadness. Anger. Frustration. Disgust. Fear.
Download The Shoot Back Mixtape, a collection of voices and speeches that convey the public discontent following the not guilty verdict awarded to the police officers who killed Bell. Or if you would rather stream the audio, check out The Shoot Back Muxtape.
Here’s the first track to whet your appetite. In the words of a protester speaking for Sean Bell: “It’s not about what you do today, but what you do tomorrow.”

Tuesday, April 22nd, 2008BPOW: Choose Your Own (Bacon) Adventure
Tuesday, April 15th, 2008This week, I bring you two bacon products– one tame; one risqué (and possibly NSFW). CHOOSE YOUR OWN BACON ADVENTURE! (OK, so what if it’s not as complex as those books that were all the rage when I was in elementary school?)
Tame Bacon: “Pocket Bacon”
‘Pocket Bacon‘ is crocheted from red and white yarn can be yours for the low price of $5.00 + S/H. As the artist says, this is “seriously the dumbest thing I have ever made but you guys seem to like it” and “You can use this as a bookmark but other than that I am at a loss, I mean, you SO TOTALLY need this.” Click the image below to order:
Risqué Bacon: The Bacon Bra
The Bacon Bra is quite possibly the strangest application of an uncooked meat product that I’ve seen– well, it comes close (read #31693)– and I’m not sure The Bacon Bra is safe for work, but I’m going to post it anyways, since there’s no nudity or anything. Suffice to say, if you hear your boss approaching, stop reading this page and switch to another tab in your browser until the coast is clear. Or, if you work in the garment industry, perhaps your boss will feel you’ve discovered an entire new line of products. You be the judge.

The good news here is that you can procure a bacon bra at your local supermarket without paying shipping and handling (woman not included; sorry guys). Personally, I’m thinking of creating and patenting the Bacon Jock Strap. Either that or the Bacon Manzier (the Bacon Bro?). Thoughts?

Monthly Mashup Vol. 11 - John The Revelator Gets Low
Sunday, April 6th, 2008This month I mixed together Depeche Mode’s “John The Revelator” with the overplayed but catchy “Get Low” by Flo Rida. The result: John The Revelator Gets Low. Alternate titles included “Flo Rida The Revelator” and “Depeche Does The Limbo.” Enjoy.

BPOW: Bacon & Cheese Crick-ettes
Monday, March 31st, 2008That’s right folks….bacon and cheese flavored crickets. These are made by a company called HotLix, a specialty candy company that has an entire line of insect candies, such as Chocolate Insects, Real Scorpion Suckers, and Larvets. Any takers for a Tequila-flavored Worm Sucker?
Big shout out to Blogadilla reader billb, who sent us what is definitely our weirdest Bacon Product of the Week to date. Can any of you out there one up him? Keep posting your bacon finds in the comments!

Bacon Product of the Week: Bacon Vodka!
Monday, March 3rd, 2008First we brought you the Bacontini. Now we teach you how to make it…or at least, make the main ingredient in it: Bacon Vodka!
You’ll be surprised though, this isn’t actually very tough. The BrowniePointsBlog lays it out in 8 easy steps:
- Fry up three strips of bacon.
- Add cooked bacon to a clean pint sized mason jar.
- Trim the ends of the bacon if they are too tall to fit in the jar (or you can just throw a bunch of fried up bacon scraps in the mason jar).
- Optional: Add crushed black peppercorns.
- Fill the remainder of the bacon/peppercorn mason jar with vodka.
- Cap and place in a dark cupboard for at least three weeks. That’s right– don’t refrigerate it.
- After the three week resting period, place the bacon vodka in the freezer to solidify the fats. Strain out the fats through a coffee filter to yield a clear filtered pale yellow bacon vodka.
- Decant into decorative bottles and enjoy.

What is It? of the Week: A Rat King
Friday, February 15th, 2008[Given that it is now the Chinese Year of the Rat, I thought this appropriate.]
A Rat King is not the King of Rats, despite what certain dippy ballets and Dungeons & Dragons geeks would have you think. A Rat King is a mythological creature composed of a mass of rats, stuck together by knotted and intertwined tails. This phenomenon is said to occur when rats nest together in large numbers and their tails somehow naturally tangle together. They are reported to move about as a single entity, running amock and scaring the sh!t out of everyone. This phenomenon/myth appears to be of European origin and the oldest report of a Rat King may date to 1564.

Perhaps only worse than a Rat King is the dreaded squawking Chihuahua King.
