You’ll get a pounding headache on this one, unless you do this:

[Images found here and here. And BTW, I always hated this ride. I’d rather puke once on a Tilt-A-Whirl and be done with it.]

Autumn is Dogbush Blooming Season

Dogwood Bush

Autumn is the time to look for these spectacular blooms, and this one is ready to harvest. Give it plenty of water, food and attention, and it should last for 10 to 15 years or more when properly cared for.

Colorful Lady

The Ohio State University Marching Band (aka, The Best Damn Band In The Land) has a raccoon named Bon Qui Qui for a mascot. Thanks to all the Buckeye fans who inadvertently gave us a traffic spike of almost 5x normal yesterday. [Related posts here.]

Monumental Land Art in the U.S. Sorry, but I don’t consider a trench in the desert “Art,” but some of these are kinda cool.

There’s a Robert Redford movie coming out soon about Dan Rather, CBS and the Killian Documents Forgery Scandal. Here’s a breakdown of how the fraud began to unravel and who actually uncovered it.

She’s inane. She’s vapid. She’s @SocalityBarbie.

Heh.

Someone doesn’t know what a knife is for.

Attach a corn cob to a long fishing pole, swing it at a rubber chocolate donut and try to avoid hitting a bunch of protesters with placards on sticks in a field. That’s Hornussen, aka Swiss Golf.

Saturday Matinee – Solar System Scale Model, Bonya & Kuzmich, & Billy Woodward

Building a scale model of our solar system [via]. Were the Earth the size of a marble, take a guess as to how big this model was.
(Hint: Bigger than that.)

Not sure what to make of this, but it kept my attention. It’s titled “Kiesza – Hideaway (Bonya & Kuzmich Russian parody).” I don’t know who Kieza is, but I’m not impressed and don’t care much either. [Found here.]

Since our Saturday Matinee Post is typically eclectic, let’s shift gears.

Billy Woodward is an anomaly – part country, part country blues, part rockabilly. Although I was looking for a video of another song (I Got Bit) this’ll do.

Have a great weekend, folks, and be back here tomorrow for more stuff.

These .gifs made me smile, especially the third one, because it was so well-intentioned, yet so poorly thought out.

Park Everywhere

Okay, so there’s these DORKS who like to ruin a person’s day for a minor parking infraction that they’re not in charge of enforcing so that they can take photos and post them on Instagram or something.

Yeah, we know where you live, and you’re next, babozo.
