By the way...

Ask and Ye Shall Receive

If it's piggybacking we're talking about here...

It can never be said that Tropic of Food has neglected today's important dog-in-costume dialectics.

Apparently we need some pet sensitivity training up in this piece.

I bet the dog is actually missing an eye, too. If the dog was blind, he would be dressed like Helen Keller. Once he dies? Bernie.

Monday Morning Burn

Matt and David should probably keep this guy's number on speed dial.

Overlost in Durham

A list of the lost and found items emailed to all the students who use this particular building:
Blue "Nortel" umbrella
Pair of women's glasses
USB thumb drive
CD-R labeled "Sikh Funeral"
Pair of headphones

I think I know who one of the items might belong to, but he's probably more concerned about finding whoever did this greenscreen cut-and-paste job on him.

What happened to

What happened to the comments-time this weekend?

Wikipedia has it's limitations....

For years, I had many questions about the Kelly Family. Like, what country are they from? This answers some of my questions (they emigrated to Spain from the U.S. in 1966), but somehow only further confuses me. And nowhere is their possible connection to Dave Mustaine explored. The Kelly Family, always a mystery.

Response to where the hell is some guy with My Same Name?

If you watch the Nein video this is one of You Tube's first suggestions...


Incidentally, if you tell Pandora you like the Nein, it will decide you love Green Day.

They (the Nein, not Green Day) have a show 9/30. Sorry I posted above that. That was kind of dumb. OK, to see their post, scroll down...NOW.

They've got rhythm

In honor of the Nein's upcoming Duke Coffeehouse show, Tropic of Food proudly presents footage from the upcoming "60 Minutes" piece on the band's upcoming record. The big questions: will their new press bio incur the media backlash that the last one generated? Will North Korea pull out of yet more anti-proliferation talks as a result? Who farted? Here we show you two of the members hard at work counting to 9 repeatedly with a fake woodblock sound dialed up on the ol' Casio. According to engineer Nick Petersen, he wasn't even aware The Nein were recording in his studio during this session, but as for me and Grandpa, we believe. Watch carefully, though--not much happens:


Anyway, join the band this Saturday at the Duke Coffeehouse, where they'll be appearing with Des_Ark and the Common Ground Crew (Crash, L in Japanese, Social Memory Complex, and Phonetic). The always-trying-to-be-funny Silk Nogg will introduce each act, with commentary sure to confuse Duke students and please those "in the know" immensely.

And now, a new contender for the "most commented upon" Tropic of Food post

And they're off! Rikk's image has taken a strong lead, but can the hand-eye coordination of Stingy's interpretation of "Just A Friend" putt Rikk against the ropes? Recent developents indicate that ToF is now being viewed by, yes, people OTHER than Audubon Park and Rikk, so the heat is on for more self-aware posts and less "confessional" material on the part of AP band members. But enough theory--onto the smooth!

Ladies and Gentleman, I give you Audubon Park!

Who's your new friend?

I'm afraid I have to agree with you there, 100%

Shit's not gettin' old at all, nor could it ever

Meet my cuz and his magic friend....

They're both big fans of the Nein!

You burned my tots again! I'm gonna have to get out my ruller and get to work on you, lesten you start to beggin'.

This dood is scury!

YOU HAVE COME TO AND WELCOME TO ZOMBOCOM
