The .Gif Friday Post No. 12: Bowling
Don’t try this at home. Try it in front of hundreds of people during a televised tournament. (Be sure and replace your divot.) Then eat at Denny’s.
From the Department of Lesser Superheroes
Two damsels in obvious distress. They cry for help, pleading for mercy, “We’ve squatted and we can’t get up! Help us, SOMEONE!”
The call is answered by the only Superhero who can save them from certain death:
IT’S ENEMAN TO THE RESCUE!
When Eneman is on the scene, evil doers get what they deserve in the end. He’ll never leave his buddies behind, and he always gets to the bottom of the problem. I think any additional comment of mine may be too obviously in poor taste for such a class website such as TR, butt let your thoughts flow freely in the comments down below.
I really apologize for this post. Sorta. You still rock, though.

Red Sox’ Ballcaps are Full of It
Cincinnati, Ohio, Crosley Field – (Strutts News Services)
Red Sox relief pitcher Lannie Foosers was dismayed to find a flaw in the SoxBox of Secret Weapons. In order to “Run Faster, Jump Higher,” team management outfitted all players with baseball caps (head caps for baseball) manufactured by Keds and made entirely of Flubber.
Almost entirely. The revolutionary headgear, designed to be worn on the head as gear, was manufactured with Type X-WR Velcro, a combination of common Velcro infused with SuperGlue. The resulting chemical product was intended to secure the gear to a player’s pate to enhance his performance, without detection.
Mr. Foosers, while airborne, managed to detach his cap from his head and avoid a potentially life threatening situation.
Bob “The Bobster” Bieber (RF, bats left, no record to speak of) bruised his head repeatedly on the concrete ceiling of the dugout before Foosers became airborne. The caps were painfully removed from the rest of the team and no other problems were reported.
The Red Sox went on to win the exhibition game against the East Overshoe (PA) Scorpions of something to something else in extra innings, and nobody cared. Ditto.

Saturday Matinee: One Domino Trashes a Town, and unrelated stuff
According to Arbroath, this was Guiness’ most expensive television advertisement to date, costing 10m pounds (about $2.1 million US bucks). Filmed in a village in Argentina, the whole town came out to watch. If our crack webminers can find a link to a “making of” video, we’ll update this post, but it’s more likely we’ll just tip a stout and be done with it.
Totally unrelated to the video above, our crack webminers turned up a video from 1970, from the Flip Wilson Show. This broadcast changed my life… or at least a good part of it.
The band appeared at Woodstock. Yes, that Woodstock, 1969. These guys played alongside Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Crosby Stills & Nash, Mountain, Arlo Guthrie, Country Joe & the Finch, Richie Havens, Carlos Santana, Joni Mitchell, Melanie, Joan B. Depressed, Bobby Bieber and the SlimJims, Brittney Spears, etc.
Bunk was too young to attend Woodstock, but Bunk was allowed to watch TV. This is what Bunky witnessed at his grandparents house and loved it. ShaNaNa was IT.
This was Bunk’s introduction to DooWop. ShaNaNa sent me on a mission to hear the original versions by the Marcels, the Paragons, Dion, Gene Chandler, the Isley Brothers, the Zodiacs, the Del-Vikings, the Chips, the Chords, the Channels, Harvey & the Moonglows, Shep and the Limelights, the Ronnettes, the Shirelles, Leon Redbone, Led Zeppelin, Dread Zeppelin, Bob Marley and the Wailers, the Police, the Ramones, Elvis Costello, Tom Waits, the Sensational Alex Harvey Band, the Stray Cats, Frank Zappa, the Aquabats, the Skatalites, Moms Mabley and the Beat Farmers (featuring the late Country Dick Montana)… and not necessarily in that order. Oh, and I forgot the Solid Voidz featuring Big Don P.
Fill in the band(s) I might have missed in the comments section.

La Tumba de El Geek Desconocido
No puedo ver si el monitor tiene el anuncio de Microsoft Windows “Pantella Azul del Muerte” [“The Blue Screen of Death”] para La Tumba de El Geek Desconocido.
Y’all know what I mean, even with my 8th Grade level Espanol, so don’t give me that.

Forget orange juice and Cap’n Crunch for breakfast. From now on it’s eggs and Diet Coke for me. (I hear that sales are down in Iran.)

Cat Relativity
This kitten, Cornelius, was named after rapper M.C. Escher. It’s a well known fact that cats see in 10 dimensions simultaneously; this one is obviously focused on dimension 3.5, where the force of gravity is 90 degrees from the vertical.
(Oh yeah, it’s cute now. Just wait until that silent-running Prius comes around the corner and kitty becomes eco-art.)
