Miscellaneous

Originally released on -ismist Recordings, the CD was rereleased when the comedy division of -ismist was spun off to become Stand Up! Records.

A limited vinyl edition of 450 was released on white vinyl by -ismist Recordings.

The CD version of the album features a hidden track. The track can be heard by playing the beginning of track one and then using the rewind/search button to go back 21:15.

The hidden track was later released as Revolver.

In the final track – "Other Idiots from Arkansas" – Black reads aloud from an article in the "Arkansas Democrat-Gazette" in which two men became injured after a bullet that had been inserted into their truck's fusebox subsequently discharged, causing the driver to lose control of the vehicle. This article is actually a hoax: the "Democrat-Gazette" publicly denies that it ever printed such a story and has set up a webpage to address the widespread distribution (chiefly through e-mail) of the fake article.
