Non-Music Shit / dear editor:

Henry Schuette Park

This 67 acre park provides open air shelters, grills, walking trails, fitness course, picnic area, ski trails and fishing areas. The park is also home to the Community Built Playground. 17,000 sq feet features a handicapped accessible area that is full of towers, mazes, slides and swings for all ages. The playground has a unique theme that will educated(sic) children in our rich maritime history.

DEAR EDITOR:

I just read the article about the bathroom at Schuette Park being set on fire. What kind of world are we living in?

Two weeks ago I took my kids to the park when my young son said he needed to use the restroom I waited outside the door like I usually do when he came out he asked me how he was supposed to wash his hands with "poop" in the sink.

I wasn't sure if he was serious so I walked into the bathroom to find that someone had indeed defecated in the sink.

What kind of people are so sick that they will subject children to these kinds of acts? Its bad enough we can't let our kids out of our sight in our own neighborhoods but then to deface a community built playground like they have.

What do our kids have to look forward to if they can't look forward to even going to a park? What is this world coming to?

3 involved in bathroom blaze

Herald Times Reporter

MANITOWOC ? Three 12-year-old boys ignited a fire Wednesday morning at Schuette Park, causing $750 in damage.

At approximately 6:15 a.m., the boys entered the restrooms at the park and burned the changing tables, according to Deputy Chief Bridget Anderson of the Manitowoc Police Department.

One of the boys also admitted to starting a garbage can on fire in the same restroom on Monday.

Two of the boys are being referred to the Department of Human Resources on charges of arson.

Music Shit / fuck itunes

« on: June 02, 2007, 10:58:29 PM »

Fresh privacy fears have been sparked after it emerged that Apple has embedded personal information into music files bought from its iTunes online music store.

Technology websites examining iTunes products discovered that personal data, including the name and e-mail addresses of purchasers, are embedded into the AAC files that Apple uses to distribute music tracks.

The information is also included in tracks sold under Apple's iTunes Plus system, launched this week, where users pay a premium for music that is free from the controversial digital rights (DRM) software that is designed to safeguard against piracy.

The Electronic Freedom Foundation, the online consumer rights group, added that it had identified a large amount of additional unaccounted-for information in iTunes files. It said it was possible that the data could be used to "watermark" tracks so that the original purchaser could be tracked down were a track to appear on a file-sharing network.

The discovery of the data, of which most iTunes users will have been unaware, underscores the reluctance of music groups to allow music to circulate freely over the web.

Apple had sought to present itself as a consumer champion, with the group's chief executive, Steve Jobs, insisting earlier this year that his company would drop DRM "in a heartbeat" if allowed to by the labels.

The iTunes Store has sold over 2.5 billion songs, 50 million TV shows and over two million movies, making it the leader in each of those markets.

Alright, back to 45s for this edition of Get Drunk & Play Records. Drinking the finest Canadian beer, Labatt. This time I play busy signals, Mystery Girls, and lots of other stuff you’ve probably heard before. I just picked up a bunch of Norton swag from Billy Miller so next episode will be all stuff I haven’t played before. Until then, please enjoy these garage and punk favorites of mine.

Back to vinyl and drunken banter for this week’s installment of Get Drunk & Play Records. This time Officer Brad’s playing all album cuts, stuff by the Reatards, Mistreaters, and a ton of other good shits to broke the ear. He even drags out his old hollow body to fill in a few awkward fucked-up cues. We think it’s one of his best shows ever, and we’re sure you’ll agree. Would we lie to you? Well, yeah, we probably would, but listen anyway…

Music Shit / mark behnke

« on: April 30, 2007, 05:45:33 PM »

my friend mark asked me to throw some songs onto cd for him, and i asked if it would be cool to put one on my blog and he said ok. the army made him legally loony and he gets SSI and disability but still holds down a job as a janitor at a local seafood breading plant. in high school we were in many bands together, and he's always been trying to write songs, but now i think he finally figured it out.

recorded by mark b on 4 track cassette using one generic microphone.
