And like Po I am curious as to who the professor was for this class... Dare I say professor Newman! If so that is effing dope! <img src="https://www.putsonline.co.uk/forum/my-plugins/bb-smilies/pfunk/icon_cool.gif" title="8-)" class="bb_smilies" />

The technical talk on the EMU SP range was great.

haha! Sactown, please fwd that to Thes - PUTS grill aprons is a must!!

Sactown's e-mail to Thes:
So a homie on the forum had a friend that taped your U of Oregon hip-hop lecture (which was BTW extremely informative), so I used my "talents of transcription" to write it all down for the forum peoples. (Here's the thread: http://www.putsonline.co.uk/forum/topic.php?id=3442 and here's the transcrip: http://www.thepointoftherhyme.com/UOlecture.htm) I might add the page to my lyrics website (right now nothing links to it), so let me know if that'll be a problem.

Anyway: SLC jokingly suggested I start handing out syllabi and charging book fees, so I made up a joke post about PUTS Correspondence Courses (check out the thread, third page, for the full joke).

Long story sorta-short: YoYoPo thinks a PUTS Grill Apron would be great, and I tend to agree with him. Maybe an "OH sh!t, ANOTHER BBQ" edition or something. If things are booked solid for the next few months with PL70, maybe it's something to think about for Summer 2013 (Not sure how commercial you'll willing to go).

THE MOP FEEDBACK: Also, tell Alan Simpson that book was amazing. I read it over a couple of days and laughed so hard that I made my wife and a few people on my morning bus think that I'm insane. I'm no literary critic, but I also thought it was well-written, and it had the perfect undertone of seriousness and world-weariness that offset the filth and the humor (which was already great in and of itself). I recommended it to a few people, so hopefully, you'll see some more sales.

Also, that limited edition packaging was great; I might have to frame that Hustler spread I got with the dude in the Planet of the Apes mask railing that chick (joke.), and of course the 45 was stellar.

Til next time, keep crankin' out the good sh!t.
Sac
