Dorothy’s talking out her arse again. What a crackup. While the others moved on down the Yellow Brick Road, she was always just a little behind.

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.]
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.

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.]

Chinese Roadhouse – My Way or The Highway
The House in the Middle of the Street: A car stops beside a house in the middle of a newly built road in Wenling, Zhejiang province, November 22, 2012. An elderly couple refused to sign an agreement to allow their house to be demolished. They say that compensation offered is not enough to cover rebuilding costs, according to local media.
That place screams for a safety sign mounted high on both sides of the house:
