- $100 to put toward a mic for home recording

If you want to record guitars, get a shure 57. About that amount of money. Otherwise, the sm85 is good for vocals.

Name: Spotted Dick
Manufacturer: Homepride
Bought in: England
Spotted Dick will require no explanation for most of you, readily bringing to mind unpalatable images of a visibly diseased male organ. The pudding itself, however, is eminently palatable, a favourite staple of school dessert menus throughout the whole of England. The spots are currents (the 'Real Fruit' on the packet - whoooo!), which are embedded in a suet pudding. Whether or not this sponge constitutes the dick is unclear, but possibly it does, since suet (I have just discovered) is "the hard fat found around the kidneys and loins of oxen, sheep etc." (OED). Yuk. Sometimes it is better not to know. Thanks to Martha for submitting this - it's been in her Arizona cupboard for over five years, as she is understandably loathe to put a spotted dick anywhere near her mouth.

i thought there was a spotted dick ale or something like that.

 

[Draft Dodging Scarecrow]

I"m seriously hungry right now and would consider eating that stuff. Mainly 'cause I'm curious.

 

[azal]

bi-curious.
