Gris Gris Gumbo Ya Ya Hot Links
Sunday, 25 June 2017
The Human Genome is 80% cow. It’s also 60% fruit fly.
That explains a lot.
A 5 year-old boy witnessed Lincoln’s assassination.
Justice for Damone Ramone is long overdue. Johnny, Joey, Tommy, DeeDee and Marky never gave their sibling the credit he deserved.
Gitcha some Gris Gris Gumbo Ya Ya. “I’ll kill all y’all’s ills.”
Now about those Trump Lies. They’re all lies.
Top image is a sculpture entitled Malinche by Jimmie Durham.
Born ca.1500AD, La Malinche (also known as Doña Marina) was a female Nahua from the Tobasco region of Mexico. Enslaved by the Chontal Maya, she was given to the Spanish conquistadors led by Hernán Cortés in 1519. She was reported to be a hottie, was savvy enough to cozy up to Cortés, became his translator and mistress, and aided the Spaniards in defeating the Aztecs. She’s now reviled as a traitor… to those who enslaved HER.
Saturday Matinee – Milton Friedman, The Knitts & The Reverend Peyton’s Big Damn Band
Saturday, 24 June 2017
I don’t like the title of this YouTube video at all because mocking young naïve idealistic Marxists is not a good way to explain basic economic principles and move them toward a rational frame of thought. On the other hand, this video illustrates the patience, sentience, and simple brilliance of the late Milton Friedman.
OKAY NEXT.
The Knitts. I like the sound. Kinda retro, kinda young, kinda wow. There’s hope for music after all.
This video annoys the hell out of me, but it’s kinda fun at the same time. Rev. Peyton’s Big Damn Band is Rev. Peyton-Guitar, Washboard Breezy Peyton-Washboard, Ben “Birddog” Bussell-drums.
Have a great weekend, folks. Be back here tomorrow for more really important worldly stuff.

Casa De La Tortuga, aka Мэлхий зоогийн газар
Tuesday, 20 June 2017
I searched for the location, and it turns out to be in the Gobi Desert in Monglolia. A Reddit commenter added this:
“Its not a house, but a restaurant by the Flaming Cliffs/Dinosaur fossil site in the Gobi Desert in Mongolia. It’s not as big as it looks, and this pic is quite old. It’s a bit dilapidated now. 44°10’31.54″N 103°41’49.39″E“
No GoogleMaps Street View – there ain’t no streets.

It’s the tallest building west of the Mississippi, and those guys are perched on the spire atop the Wilshire Grand Center, Los Angeles, in September 2016. The spire is purely decorative, serves no purpose other than to support a beacon (and perhaps an ego, IMO).

Not Your Father’s Hot Links
Sunday, 18 June 2017
Gene Vincent & The Blue Caps recorded “Catman” in 1957. [Here are the lyrics so you can sing along.]
The Ramones capitalized on The Stance.
This is the Ideal Store.
Rollin’ Wild is a cool site with animation shorts filled with spherical animals, like this one.
Omphalophobes can be repulsed just by seeing or thinking about a belly button. Other rare phobias listed here.
Apparently anthropomorphic global warming existed before anthropomorphs did. Dinosaur skulls have been found as far north as what is now Alaska (which in the Cretaceous Period was mostly within the Arctic Circle). Pachyrhinosaurus is now my favorite Sauropod. What did they do in the Arctic darkeness?
Corey Hart sends mixed messages and I have no idea who he is.
Dog likes to watch “Planet Earth” on TV [via].
Happy Fathers’ Day to all Fathers who ever Fathered. To you Proto-Fathers and Fathers-In-Training, your prime responsibility is to Father forever more.
