That looks like a young Tommy Chong to me. The one on the right, I mean…

The Hampers
Okay, that’s not the name of the trio, but that was the first name that came to mind when I saw the album cover. Looks can be deceiving when we’re talking about crappy album covers. These lovely ladies are The De Castro Sisters, and you can hear them rocking out here.

Dutch Deluge January 2012
A Dutch local resident, standing in his house, looks to high waters level through his window, in Dordrecht on January 5, 2012. Gale force winds reaching up to 110 kilometres (about 70 miles) an hour as well as heavy rains are expected along the Dutch coast. About a quarter of the country sits below sea level.
That’s hella scary. There’s a lot of hydrostatic pressure on the base of that wall, and I wouldn’t want to be standing there when it fails. [Found in here.]
Rockin’ Wanda
“A collection of great country songs in the rhythmic singing style of WANDA JACKSON.” I thought it might be a ripoff record of Wanda Jackson covers due to the subtitle. Apparently not. This was her 2nd album, recorded in 1960, and she was featured on yesterday’s Saturday Matinee as well.

Saturday Matinee – Spider Psych, Wanda Jackson & Ubizmo’s Ocarina
Spider face-off [via].
Wanda Jackson was an early rockabilly star / rock and roll pioneer with recordings spanning over 50 years, 1958 – 2012. REALLY.
Ocarina virtuoso Ubizmo performing “Tam Lin (aka Glasgow Reel).”
And with that, we’re out, as we wait for our old pc to come back from surgery after a debilitating bout with Mr. Stoopid. Have a great weekend, and we’ll be back regardless of Mr. Stoopid tomorrow.
The .Gif Friday Post No. 263 – Rotation
[First .gifs found here. I rotated them and paired ’em up. The other two were from a site that’s NSFW/NSFK, but…
Due to almost-unforseen circumstances, I’m posting this from an annoyingly un-tweaked mouse-less laptop, and I don’t have my bookmarks handy to link to it. My ailing desktop is going in for surgery tomorrow.
[Update: Surgery failed, can’t fix a broken motherboard. You read that right. Not malfunctioning. Broken. I broke it. I broke a motherboard.
Adam’s Electronics swapped me a refurbished model, over and above the quality of service expected. They are beyond the valley of awesome.]

Zappa’s “Black Beauty,” bass up, treble down, volume 11, because it sure as hell beats Manilow.
