Brett Singer Tweets for 2012-04-29

This week in Brett Singer Tweets, a basketball brawl becomes a joke that writes itself (World Peace throws an elbow — we have the name of our next album), I attempt to find a home for a box of 5 1/4″ diskettes (no takers), and I went on TV twice. Clips will be ready… you know, soon. Like most things in my life. Read on! Read more »

Chef Dad On Fuzzy Strawberries

Chef Dad has this to say about fuzzy strawberries:

I hate wasting food but I think these strawberries qualify as a new life form.

This tip is good advice with regard to all foodstuffs of uncertain freshness. “When in doubt, throw it out.”

From this week’s Brett Singer Tweets. Here’s the rest if you missed ’em.

Runaway Bunny Reviewed By A Maniac

The Runaway Bunny reviewed by a maniac

Have you ever wondered what it would sound like if the book The Runaway Bunny was reviewed by a maniac? Wonder no more!

According to one particularly peeved person, the book that we all thought was cute is “like a horror movie where the mom has gone insane and hunts down her child who dearly wishes to escape her.”

This is good stuff, folks.

Personally, we were always troubled by the line in the book when the little bunny tells his mom, “If you become the wind and blow me…” But maybe that’s just us.

The review was highlighted by the site LeastHelpful.com, a collection of less than helpful user reviews posted on Amazon. Great idea. And yes, we’re a little jealous that we didn’t think of it first.

If you disagree with the above reviewer and want to buy The Runaway Bunny anyway, you may do so at Amazon.
