Saturday Matinee – FaceBook Etiquette, Carnival Cheats,Texting Scam, Bob Kuban & The In-Men and The Undisputed Truth
We had to watch that in junior high school. We all snickered to ourselves and laughed out loud afterwards. Once school let out, we went trolling anyway:
“Hello, Mrs. Jenkins? This is Bob from Hi-Times Liquor. Your husband left his wallet and motel key on the counter.”
“You Asked For It” was an early television show that pulled in viewers by asking for requests. This one shows some old carnival gaffes, some of which are still employed.
Here’s a modern day fraud to be aware of. The Real Hustle was an interesting show. Here’s 90 minutes worth of bar bets that should keep you busy for a while.
Bob Kuban & The In-Men had their one hit in 1966 with “The Cheater” and the song fits. (Irony note: Kuban was killed by his wife’s boyfriend in 1983.) I couldn’t find a live version, but this works.
“Smiling Faces” was originally recorded by the Temptations, but was a hit with this cover by The Undisputed Truth in 1971.
That’s our collection for this episode of The Saturday Matinee. Have a great weekend folks and we’ll see you tomorrow whether you like it or not.

Saturday Matinee – Cold Capybara, Doodles in Math Class & Miles Davis
When a capabara clicks and huffs, it’s angry and this one is really pissed at the snow.
The Utoobage videos entitled “Doodling In Math Class” are pure awesome. This one relates the Golden Rectangle and irrational number Phi to botany.
Miles Davis, live in Munich 1988. I saw him in the early 80s, and the performance was amazing. Nice groove here.
Late posting this – got kind of busy with other stuff last night. Have a great weekend, see ya tomorrow.

The Art of Trolling
Jonco’s description:
“Some guy on Reddit posted that his cousin was bored so he gave out his new phone number on Facebook. Soon after, the texting tomfoolery began.”
