There are waaaaay too many things wrong here. The polkadot yukata for example. Did the Colonel ever serve watermelon in the Kentucky Fried Chicken franchises? Not in my memory. But to tell the truth, I’m ticked that KFC doesn’t deliver their buckets o’ artery-clogging flavor to my house anymore. I can only take so much pizza.

Steamboat McGoo found this excellent study illustrating the importance of understanding basic geometry. Although the explanation is in Japanese, it’s of critical importance that angle TQS is equal to angle AQE in order to cause the schoolboy’s jaw to drop.
There’s a pun in there somewhere about an extra riser, but I’m not gonna go there.
[Whoa. Just found the source of that excellence. There are a series of Manga textbooks, and they’re available in other languages including Portuguese. Tip o’ the tarboosh to mars for the update.]
Folks,
For some reason the Tacky Raccoons FaceBook page mysteriously vaporized. It’s possible that the password was hacked, but more likely I clicked on it and spooked it myself. Thanks to all of you who dropped by and linked to it, left comments, and we’ll have a new one up soon.

[Update– Deleted reference to FaceBook probs.]
The Three Stooges would have been nothing without Larry Fine, and all you have to do is imagine Moe Howard with only Curly Howard, or Moe with only Shemp Howard. To be sure, a team of Shemp, Curly and Larry wouldn’t have lasted long without Moe Howard’s belligerence. Larry Fine was awesome.

The original Star Trek was the best. Check out how young Kirk and McCoy look [via].
I might have posted this before, but Robert Klein was truly funny occasionally. If anyone has a clip of his classic “I Can’t Stop My Leg,” lemme know.
Classic summer song by The Friends of Distinction.
Here’s The Cornelius Brothers in Ft. Lauderdale in 1983, reprising their hit from 1972. (The video link above jumps to other stuff; couldn’t find a solitary link of a live show.)
Also from 1972, here’s War‘s live version of “Slipping Into Darkness.” Early 70s funk was awesome. Have a great weekend, folks, and be back here tomorrow for more funk and games.
