Mike, My wife before she passed away asked for her ashes to be put in a Coffee can. My wife loved coffee and drank it from when she woke till she went to bed. Cup after cup every day. When she passed away in October of 2022 I had her Ashes put in a coffee can and then inside a granite vault. That is how she was burried.

I stumble across this in the weirdest way. my dad was a chemist, he insisted we donate his body to science, specifically to a collage . then he was cremated and sent home. my mom has him on her mantle, in "the prettiest pringles can ever" because A) it does look like a decorative pringles can and that's what he came in from the crematorium where they sent him when he was done being educational B) we knew about Fred, and him being put in his creation, because weird science types fallow other weird science type people. C) because my dad referenced his own remains as his "left-overs" and wanted mom to do with them as she wished in the most economic fashion I'm glad other people can learn about Fred. im only crying because its so funny.

That one was pretty cool. I think it is a fitting end to his life and his largest contribution to mankind. The joke at the end is sad but very true, and funny by the way. Because of P&G's involvement in things that are questionable and their admitted use of GMO's in some of their products, we have been boycotting our consumption of those tasty stackable treats, BUT now that they were sold to someone else, maybe we can start 'inhaling' them again. Anywho, good issue of your cool show. PS, I know you're somewhere in the bay area, but I'm trying to figure out where, by what I see out your window, and by the time you say you have recorded some of your episodes. Possibly the peninsula somewhere?

Hi Mike, I like your shows. As I read your messages comments one said he'll buy you a new camera. well I thinks it the cloudyness on the lens is because of lighting. I mean your setting in your home next to a window. I feel the lighting between inside is different then outside which causes a reaction to the lenses of a camera. hope this help you in the future recording. thank you. Billie Dalton

Sorry to burst your bubble, Mike ... BUT! Back in 1990 I was "gifted" a parakeet who was very adept at mimicking me by yelling, "Hey, Pal!" everytime I walked in the door. Alas, one day I returned from work to find "Pal" lying stiff and lifeless in the bottom of his cage. What to do?!? I was living in an apartment with my brother at the time and had no outdoor space in which to bury my late, great friend Pal. The Powell boys were accomplished Pringle eaters, so after emptying the tenth container of the week, I inserted the now slowly decaying carcass of Pal into a Pringle can for final burial. But where? I wandered the apartment complex grounds in search of an appropriate final resting place, and after roughly 7 minutes I encountered the massive complex dumpster. Problem solved. SOooo ... my friend Pal would have actually be well ahead of Fred in calling a Pringle can to be his coffin extraordinaire. Just so you know, bro :)
