Dialing Up the Hot Links
Soulsville, USA. Ax your chilluns what it means to dial a number. Better yet, plug in a rotary phone and dare them to call one of their friends.
Do you (or your parents /grandparents) have boxes of slides and negatives that you don’t want to lose? This may be a relatively painless archiving solution.
I find this disturbing on multiple levels.
Cold glass sculpting + Fibbonacci = Amazing [via].
This looks like a fun excursion if you have the bucks. Oh wait. Nevermind.
From the I Am Woman Department: I really don’t know what to make of this – whether to pity or to laugh – but the jerk is being a jerk. NSFK / NSFW

Saturday Matinee – Tito Puente, Mickey Hart & Todd Rundgren
Pure percussion by Tito Puente e Los TropiJazz All Stars. I could listen to this stuff all day.
Decades ago (in college) we attended an off-campus house party that seemed to have a live band. I asked the host about it and he replied, “That’s the Rhythm Section. They’re in the basement.” So I went downstairs and found people taking turns on vinyl trash cans, bottles, cans, buckets, with wooden dowels and spoons, and it all sounded great as it morphed, non-stop. No electronics, just stoners people grooving on impromptu syncopated rhythms.
Micky Hart‘s Planet Drum project got my ear as well. Hard to say what musical instrument came first, the bone flute or the drum. I’d guess the latter, because you can bang on anything to create a tempo, and everything else is secondary. (Vocals don’t count unless you’re talmbout Hollerin.)
Then of course there’s this RetroSka classic:
Have a great weekend, folks. We’ll be back here tomorrow whether you like it or not.
Cinco De Mayo Taco Pizza. Have at it.
Just showed this to the missus. Her response was, “Taco pizza, pizza taco. What’s the difference?”

“And yet we shlorp out cranberry sauce that looks just like this every Thanksgiving and that’s ok.”
“If they think this is bad, they should see what vegetables look like before they’re harvested. Covered in DIRT. EW!”
“I thought these were candles.”
“I’m frankly impressed that the chicken noodle isn’t 90% broth.”
“Not gonna lie, my gut reaction is they all look delicious. Am I uncultured swine?”
“Soup is not supposed to be geometric I get it.”
“I find the lines oddly satisfying.”

Saturday Matinee – Hornet Nest Eradication Fail, Tom Sitter, Kenneth White, The Avett Brothers & The Magnetic Fields
A Peavey amp, a Gibson, Black Sabbath, a Roman Candle, a hose and a folding yard stick is no defense from hornets. The part where he says, “Hold my beer,” is missing from the video.
From Laughing Squid:
Redditor Kathy Sitter very proudly posted a video of her 93-year old grandfather Tom Sitter telling an absolutely hilarious story to a very responsive audience during The Moth in Madison StorySLAM at the High Noon Saloon in Wisconsin. The theme of the night was “Love Hurts”, so Sitter spoke about his valentines from 1933, earning him a first-ever perfect score.
Kenneth White spent over 5 years building a replica wild west village from the 1880’s right in his backyard. White built everything from scratch including a saloon, a church with beautiful stained glass windows and an old-fashioned western jail complete with a prisoner in the bed.
What a great project. [Found here.]
How ’bout some modern country?
The Avett Brothers got the licks, and they proved it at Knoxville’s Tennessee Theater in 2015.
Bunkessa ran off to see The Magnetic Fields last night. The music isn’t quite my can of beer, but the animation is fun.
Have a great weekend, folks. See you back here tomorrow.
