Cake Farts / 4 Superpoop06/29/09
Four Superpoop comics this week - here's my favorite from last week if you missed it.

To my astonishment, I somehow managed to forget to post my Cake Farts remix. The vocal samples come from an adult-slash-grossout video of a lady farting all over a cake. I will leave the googling to you, since I can't in good conscience direct you to view this - you must make the conscious effort to find it, and it is, as the internet says, Not Safe For Work.
I was going to make an animated video to go with this song, with a sloth driving a Prius to a doctor's office and asking for cake farts, but until my spare time catches up with my inability to stay awake 24 hours a day, this sort of thing has to wait. In lieu of a completed project, I give you instead the Beat Of The Week. It has some dirty bass, so play it on some real speakers or good headphones if you can. Headphones would probably work best, unless you want everyone in your house to ask you what you're listening to.

Beat of the Week / 5 Superpoop06/22/09
There are five Superpoop comics this week too. Some weeks there are three or four, but when there appears to be an abnormally large number of people viewing the site, I'll post five in a row. Make of that what you will. (And thank you for continuing to post these to forums and websites where others will see them.)
Here is a new Beat of the Week. You think I'm gonna be all "Stay right here in the bookstore, I'll be back in a minute" and then leave you at the mall like Punky Brewster, but that's not how it works around here. The only caveat is that if you're on a laptop you might never hear the bass on these beats, so if you get a chance, play them in your car, or on some good headphones.

Superpoop / Horsetown 306/16/09
There are five Superpoop comics this week! And here's Horsetown #3. (Click to enlarge.)
The "Beat of the Week" will return shortly. I'm in the middle of rearranging all my music stuff. (I'm selling a bunch of Doepfer modules and my Matrix-1000 synthesizer + programmer, so if you're into that kind of stuff drop me an email.)
Duck Fat IV: RABBIT OFFAL06/06/09
If you're not a reader of my Twitter you may not know about my latent obsession with rabbit. I live in a neighborhood where there are a lot of rabbits. To say they are plentiful is an understatement. I've always wanted to nab one out of the yard and cook it up, but I'd stop myself. "It doesn't taste good," I would say, to myself, internally. "If it tasted good people would be constantly catching these motherfuckers, cooking them up, and wearing rabbit fur coats when they go down to the grocery store." I psyched myself out repeatedly, until one day, I was in a small restaurant, and they were serving rabbit.
I ordered the rabbit, and it was delicious. To say that rabbit tastes like chicken is like saying pork tastes like chicken. It's lean meat, it has a subtle flavor, and when I ate my first rabbit, I gnawed the remains until other diners started to stare. Every last bit of it was delicious.
The details are best left unspoken, but two days ago, I acquired a local rabbit. I'm cooking the bulk of it for dinner tonight, but as a sneak preview, I removed the heart, kidneys, and liver to cook separately.
Top-left: rabbit heart. Left: Two rabbit kidneys. Big red blob: Rabbit liver.
Not sure if this is entirely necessary, but I soaked 'em out in some salt water to remove any residual off-taste. Them kidneys had little peepee strings on em.
They were dredged in flour/salt/pepper and fried in a big puddle of duck fat. The liver went in first so I wouldn't overcook the tiny heart and kidneys.
They're done! The heart was like a piece of candy made of meat. The kidneys were tender and far more mild than I expected. The liver was milder than chicken liver and creamy in consistency. I ate it all with a piece of crusty bread and a small glass of port. Overall deliciousness of DUCK FAT IV RABBIT OFFAL: 9.5/10
