THIS IS A STORY OF TWO SMELLS

My kids take swim lessons through a program at the L.A. Fitness in West Seattle. When you walk into the facility from the parking garage elevator there is a big front desk, staffed often with two or three young people who are usually sometimes perky and attractive. You are supposed to scan your phone into their system while they fold towels and look at you, but I always walk right by, and nobody ever says anything or tries to stop me.

PLUGGED IN. TURNED UP. TURNED OUT. BUGAA IS THERE.

Born Chevis Angular Hermb, the man now known as BUGAA woke one morning in the intensive care unit of Can Misses Hospital on the island of Ibiza with no memory. The only items in his possession were some vintage 1950’s era office clothes and a VISA gift card that had a balance of nearly 7 million U.S. dollars. Despite this huge sum of money, Immigration would not allow him to leave the island as he had no identification, and so he began the effort of trying to piece together his past and in doing so would eventually construct a new identity for himself.

BUNCHA PEOPLE OUT WALKIN’ AROUND…

Cleveland, OH - Cutting against the grain of all known conversational conventions, Heberton Township resident Shane Brently is at it again. Commanding his formidable skills with the surety of a master swordsman, Shane lets forth a short string of exquisitely chosen words which simultaneously appear to both observe, and call into question the number of people in Glip-Heber Falls Park this afternoon, "Buncha People Out Walkin' Around."

"GO ON, GET YOUR MEATS! GO ON, GET YOUR MEATS! IF YOU CAN’T HAVE ANY MEATS, AND YOU CAN'T HAVE ANY PUDDINGS!” - BOY, I'LL NEVER KNOW HOW ROBERT PLANT CAME UP WITH THIS STUFF!

When Robert Plant wrote the hit song “Pink Floyd the Wall” in 1973, music was changed forever. Sad teenagers the world over rejoiced as, finally, someone was able to connect with them in a universal expression of angst about not getting enough dessert for not getting enough meats.

YOU KNOW WHAT? FORMER SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY LARRY SUMMERS WAS RIGHT; TAKE AWAY THE MUSIC AND THE KILLERS ARE A PRETTY GOOD BAND

That's right, folks, Chaz Pinkle comin’ in with another hot scoop of music and money news! In an offhand remark during a recent discussion about inflation and the state of the US economy, none other than Larry Summers commented that he had been contemplating the specific economics of selling a product like a home stereo or radio whose volume function went all the way down, when play could simply be stopped or turned off. Maybe, he posited, that it was because, “some music just sounded better at zero volume.” You know what? He was right!

MIKE TROUT SHOWS OFF ELBOWS

In a rather perplexing display during last night's game against division rival Houston Astros, Angels centerfielder Mike Trout left fans and teammates alike scratching their heads as he repeatedly showed off his elbows to attendees at Minute Maid Park. While some speculate that this was an act of solidarity for his injured teammate, Shohei Otani, others are convinced that Trout simply wanted to remind everyone that he has elbows.

MAXX CHEESE - THE UNRIVALED DAIRY MONARCH - A REVIEW

I must admit that when I first laid eyes on Maxx Cheese, I was decidedly skeptical. Its tagline, confidently proclaiming, "You can't even handle it," seemed more boastful than enticing. Yet, my skepticism was shattered by the sheer audacity of Maxx Cheese. I'm not ashamed to admit that after a single bite, I found myself not only concurring with its bold assertion but also feeling thoroughly intimidated, belittled, and, dare I say, emasculated.
