Feder Rips Dahl for ‘Floating Corpse’ Drink Recipe

Posted on by

Robert Feder on Thursday reported on a bit that Steve Dahl did on his radio show (and later continued in his blog) in which he was joking about creating a drink recipe called the ‘Floating Corpse’.

The article insinuates that Dahl was making light of the deaths in the New Orleans area.

Dahls response to Feder (middle of page) was published on Friday, asking Feder to clarify that he was actually referring to the corpses from the above-ground graveyards and not the hurricane victims.

Dahl then ends, in standard Dahl fashion, with the following statement:

I intend to commemorate the plight of the victims with ‘Looter Lasagna’.

How Far Would You Go To Have Your Own Business?

Posted on by

I found this article this morning on Yahoo! News about John Darrigo, owner and operator of the Dog-Gone-It Pet Waste Removal Service in New Hampshire.

Doing a search on Google you find a ton of businesses just like this with names like DoGPiLe Patrol, PoopButler, and MineSweepers.

I’m not sure this is a business that I would want to be in (my solution would be to not have a dog if I had the voting power), but after thinking about it for a bit, I see two big strengths about this line of business. The first is that it is definitely a job that not many people enjoy doing, and therefore if you find customers like me, you could make a killing. Secondly, there doesn’t seem to be a shortage of clever names you could come up with for a company which performs these activities.

Luckily, I’ve found this article so that I can point our kids over to it. Now we can just say that picking up the yard is prep for their future rather than just having to throw out a “because I said so”.
