BassMan here with an announcement of a very suprising death!

Of all the recent celebrity deaths, I must say yesterday's was the most suprising one yet: Billy Mays!

As much as you can joke about this guy (and I have seen some good jokes and spoofs of him), Billy Mays was a man of integrity. Every product he would advertise on TV has been proven to work AS ADVERTISED! Personally I still use the Super Chamois, Orange Glo and OxyClean myself.

Billy Mays, may you rest in peace and I pray that your integrity was as good with God as it was with your products.

Unlike the other Green Lanterns, Kyle Rainer's ring actually CAN affect things that are yellow! :P

Warning: Do Not Listen if you are a fan or Michael Jackson

If you're indifferent about him, or don't like him, then please listen

Now to Ed McMahon and Ferrah Fawcet, R.I.P., but for Michael Jackson, GOOD RIDDANCE! In fact because Jacko is dead, my next BassCast will be just for him called "Joy to the World!"

Happy Birthday to ronnieraccoon ! Your Ronnie comics were some of the first furry comics I ever read!

JABRONI!!!

Today I was hauling the machine gun game trailer and when I got off of I-96 in Detroit to turn onto the road to the midway, the steering locked up and BOOM! I hit the guard rail. Luckilly this was a low-speed collision and Nobody was hurt, not even me. Other good news is I was able to get it out of there before cops could catch it, but I'm probably going to owe a shitload of money to get it fixed!

Other news: Got a new tattoo last week: 2 paw prints inside a yin-yang on my right shoulder. Once I can find my camera, I'll post a photo of it. I now have a total of 2 tattoos (the other is the Iowa Hawkeyes logo on my left shoulder)

Mid-America's 2 carousels (the 2nd Unit's is in the background) as well as their Chance Century Wheel

2 tandem FreakOuts, and in the background, you can also see their State Fair Fun Slide, Yo-Yo, SlingShot (Drop Ride), and Chance Giant Wheel

Perhaps the neatest-designed Scrambler I've ever seen!

Close-up of the Chance Giant Wheel, that's over 100 feet high!

Better view of the SlingShot

Last night I pulled into the grounds of St. Mary's Prep School in Orchard Lake, MI for their Polish Country Fair and I must say I was blown away to see every ride in Mid-America Shows' arsenal parked there, plus Farrow's Crazy Mouse coaster which is easily the largest ride on the midway as far as space!!! Yeah, my eyes have turned into dollar signs here as I'll be working a bottle-up game, AND THERE'S A BEER GARDEN HERE!!!

New BassCast

Happy birthday to pouncehyena ! (bakes her a fish cake)

Happy Birthday today to recherei and on Cinco de Mayo, qpuppy 

I think man will be the downfall of man. For the United States, I think it will start when some white trash yahoo assassinates President Obama, causing Civil War II, except between civilians and not militaries. For the world, I think it will be nuclear warfare.

Well due to my boss needing me to go down to Florence, MS this weekend with her to pick up a new truck & trailer, I will not be attending FCN. She has, however, offered to pay for me to go to the con of my choice! The following are cons I'm thinking of with the only drawbacks in parenthesis. Your suggestions are very welcome!!!

-Rocket City FurMeet
-FA United (Memorial Day Weekend, though that weekend is often a blank for me anyways)
-AnthroCon (It's over 4th of July weekend, 1 of my busiest weekends of the year)
-All Fur Fun (problem is it's over 1,000 miles from where I'll have to leave from)
-Megaplex
-Califur (means I would miss the 1st 2 days of Steamboat Days in my hometown)
-Memphit Furmeet (could be dicey being on Labor Day weekend)

Cons I absolutely cannot attend due to State Fairs:
-Rocky Mountain Fur Con
-Rain Furrest
-FurFright

Note: Elliot's parties are parties, not cons, so I didn't list them. Also I can't afford to leave the USA so I only listed American cons. Oklacon, I dunno if I'll still be working that time of year or not. MFF, I hope to make in the off-season
