Saturday Matinee – McDonald’s Shadrach Zoom
Timelapse video of McDonald’s food deterioration. Amazing how fast it wastes away to nothing.
Now before we segue into something completely different, here’s a link to a kid who hacked into a news broadcast. First he sped up the feed, then he tossed in his own commentary. (Here, with subtitles. Tip o’ the Tarboosh to mjazz.)
The Larks‘ version of “Shadrach” is pretty cool gospel. Don’t know what the song’s about? Click here.
The Deep River Boys‘ theatrical version of “Shadrach.”
Louis Armstrong‘s “Shadrach” took the gospel song to a higher level.
The Cadillacs‘ “Zoom,” although not gospel is great R&B stuff. Have a great weekend, folks. Be back here tomorrow.

[Important announcement: The wiener of the runoff competition is Planetross by almost a 2:1 margarine. Thanks to all of you for tolerating the behind the scenes flamewars between Planetross and Wheels. They’re both good peeps, but when you toss a free sweatshirt into a crowd there’s likely to be some blood involved.
Thanks also to the folks at CafePress for donating THE COVETED PRIZE. So here’s another plug:

Revolver Maps is a cool widget, spotted at Plate O’ Fish. Unfortunately it doesn’t work on WorpDress for some reason, so we added a button at upper right above the blog counter instead.
Although the story is likely fabricated, this one from 2004 is still funny. On the other hand, This Diary is likely true.

I don’t know if this is a ritual, a protest, if they’re being punished for something, or it’s a new crop of tech support.

Well looky what the google found. From here:
JAKARTA: Six residents of Cempaka Putih, Central Jakarta, buried themselves up to their shoulders on Monday in protest of a government plan to evict them from their homes.
The residents buried themselves 1.2 meters deep in the ground.
Salman, 52, one of the residents, said he had been left with no other option to defend his land.
“It is a fight for my children and grandchildren,” he said.
Salman and other residents said they had been living in the area for more than 57 years. The government recently announced a plan to build an office for the religious court on the land.
Two people fainted during the protest, which lasted an hour, Tempointeraktif.com reported.

Whoa. There’s some serious WTF**kage here. Here’s a blowed-up and enhanced version:
There’s so much voodoo here I don’t know where to begin. Besides the Demon Cow ressurected by lightning and the Skull and Crossbones Medusa, there’s Michael Frank, a hoodoo man and a ninja turtle. At lower right is the scariest by far: Alfalfa as Dame Edna with a Darth Vader/Troll mask.
Nope. I’m not even gonna touch the doorbell… just back away slowly and hope the demons don’t follow.
