Catching up

During our break from Flogging, we didn’t have a chance to check the Smells Like Yukon e-mail account for over a week. As a result, when we returned to the office, we had to deal with the inevitable backlog of incoming messages.

Each and every day, Smells Like Yukon receives, quite literally, a half-dozen, sometimes even a dozen, e-mails from fans and friends all around the world. In between calls to Animal Control to remove the last remnants of Robin Williams from Mark’s house, we’ve been sorting through–and occassionally responding to–all manner of correspondence from this global network. At this point, we’re almost caught up.

We’d be lying if we said that all the e-mails we receive are equally appreciated. For example, we can usually count on our friend Kevin to offer some interesting news or trivia that inevitably finds its way into a Smells Like Yukon segment. But after carefully reading his latest message to determine that it doesn’t involve the husky on the Yukon’s coat of arms or that mummified kitty they found in the Capital Hotel, no one’s sure what we’re supposed to make of Kevin’s announcement that “Dog makes love to cat.”

On the other hand, we do tip our hats to our pal Towiddowson, whose timely promise of “instant results with organ enhancement pills” suggests a Moens-ish inside knowledge of Smells Like Yukon’s future plans. In preparation to pump up the organ in the music tracks of future segments of the Smells Like Yukon radio series, Mark has been spending a lot of time watching The Band’s Chest Fever on YouTube. And while he has so far been enjoying this activity drug-free, he won’t discount the possibility that some chemical assistance might make his research even easier. He’s now looking forward to utilizing the giant package promised by Towiddson.

We’ve got a lot of other interesting correspondence we’d like to share, but it’ll have to wait. Animal Control has just pulled up again….
