US Unemployment animation from January 2007 through September 2009. Not good.
Laptop Steering Wheel Desk. Read the reviews, click on the pictures to see it in use.
Bad Spock Drawings (link found here).
Nurse Myra mentioned that she wears this perfume.

I really don’t want to know the story behind this.
B ETWE EN. Very odd, reminds me of David Lynch’s Eraserhead. Click on the image, hit full screen, and meet me back here.
The Maccabees put a video of the winner of the 2007 Gloucestershire Cheese Rolling to music. Who woulda guessed. (Bunkarina suggested this one.)
So just for the heck of it, I click the Utoobage and start typing b, u, n, k… and up pops Bunkface. (I’ve been called worse.)
You’d not believe how difficult it is to come up with the correct video links for rain. “Rain Rain Rain” doesn’t even come up on the search mojo; The Videos’ “Trickle Trickle” is a no show also. Ritchie Blackmore’s Rainbow held possibilities. Or I could link to It’s a Beautiful Day’s self-indulgent “White Bird (in a golden cage in the rain).” Ugh. I couldn’t bring myself to post a Melanie vid either, so while I’m hunting, try this.
The Ronettes’ “Walking in the Rain” is THE best rain song ever.
I assume that it chimes on the hour with the BunkkiddaBunkkiddaBunk of an idling 1942 Harley-Davidson.

“The zebrafish, or zebra danio, is a tropical fresh-water fish not only popular in aquariums around the world, but in research tanks as well. Danio rerio plays an important role in teaching us more about evolution. These two-day old larvae will turn into adult fish in three months. Scientists have found that zebrafish have the ability to regenerate fins, skins, the heart and the brain during the larval stages.”
Shortly after 1AM this morning, PST, Tacky Raccoons received our 500,000th visitor with open arms, confetti, little cheap plastic tooty horns, whatever was left in the fridge, and the promise of complete anonymity. Thanks, Mystery Vistor!
Out on bail and home for the holidays. And one of them is drug free, at least for a couple of hours.

The history of the Beatles. [Found here.]
“With a Girl Like You.” The announcer mispronounces the group’s name as “The Rutles.” Heh.
Here’s the Troggs’ original version of “With A Girl Like You” from 1967. The Troggs got their name from Troglodytes, aka, cavemen, which brings us to this:
“Troglodyte” was one of the worst yet most popular funk trainwrecks ever. Recorded in 1972, the Jimmy Castor Bunch introduced us to Bertha Butt of the Butt Sisters. Boom shakalaka.
And now for our Feature Presentation: “The Ape Man.”
[Note that this is the 1971 original uncut version. Not for the squeamish.]
