Chapter Four: Human Boots
Rico asks a human for feedback on his new advertising jingle, "Human Boots." It's got a good beat, and you can strip flesh off warm corpses to it. Josie seems to be indisposed this week; maybe Rico will mention something about that.
Featuring Melinda Ann Smith as the gagged human "Chunky"!

Melinda posted a new installment of her podcast Basketcase Show. In this episode, "Songlian describes her various psychotic breaks" with clips from A Beautiful Mind and Requiem for a Dream mixed in. Link to archive.org page where you can stream it or download it.
Poll: What MPAA rating would you assign to this podcast? I listened to a great story called "Little Worker" by Paul Di Filippo on Escape Pod podcast. Great story, some adult situations, but at the start they warned that it was RATED X. I thought it was maybe PG13, maybe Rated R. So that made me wonder if my scales need to be recalibrated. Here's your chance to tell me if you think they do. I think Brazen Hearts, Fresh, On Sticks would be PG-13 or maybe Rated R for adult themes, but maybe it's worse than that. I can't get a fancy clickable poll to work thru blogger, so we'll have to do this informally. Please post a comment here to say how you would rate it. Thanks.
Chapter Three: The Gift of the Sadie
"Aunt Sadie made me tell her an embarassing story about my old boyfriend before she agreed to help me. And then she set loose a leopard on me. There's nothing sweeter than spending time with family, if you can survive."

The Basketcase Show
I helped Melinda set up a podcast last night. She describes episode 1 thusly: "Call myself a cow. Talk about being moderated on New Pacifica. Slug and Lettuce review of my zine." Plus she talks about arguing with me. Oh well. To download the 11 minute long, 5.7 Mb mp3 file, see the page on Internet Archive at http://www.archive.org/details/basketcaseshow1
To subscribe to her podcast, poke around on The Basketcase Show website (http://basketcaseshow.blogspot.com).
I'll try to post a scan of the Slug & Lettuce review of Basketcase zine late tonight, if I can pry Melinda's cold, mean fingers off the computer for a few minutes.

Click here to open or download new BHFOS wallpaper! It's a 600x463 gif, not exactly optimized for use as a wallpaper, but you could use "Center" or "Stretch to fit" or "Tile". The image comes from Gray's Anatomy of the Human Body, 1918, so I'm pretty sure the copyright is lapsed. Josie's update of the diagram points to the places where she injects lemon juice, where you'll feel a slight tugging sensation, and where she puts the stick through. Here's a smaller version:
