Serious WTF On A Tricycle Is Serious

Someone put a lot of thought and effort into this creation, and it probably has some hidden emotional or socio-political message, but hell if I can suss it.

Maybe it serves to house bats, and at dusk each night a swarm spirals out of its “mouth” for an insect feeding frenzy. Or it’s a trash receptacle/composter. Could be a poorly camouflaged audio speaker system that sends odd and mildly disturbing tones throughout the neighborhood. I like the patina on the copper clad tricycle, though.

I don’t know about you, but I’m saving up to get a matching pair.

Sluggo & Nancy

I don’t know why, but those two panels just cracked me up. Ernie Bushmiller was a genius.

Saturday Matinee – Hoogerbrugge, Moonshine, Karen Wheeler, Chet Atkins & Jerry Reed, Country Dick & The Beat Farmers

Hoogerbrugge’s “A Thunderstorm in a Beautiful Summer Sky.” Want more video oddness ala Hoogerbrugge? Click here.

Now let’s make some moonshine.

What’s moonshine without country? Here’s Karen Wheeler’s version of “Muleskinner Blues.” [via] (This is the same song that The Fendermen covered in 1960 with their rockabilly version.)

“The Claw.” Can’t beat a combo of Jerry Reed and Chet Atkins.

I bet I’ve posted this video before, but I’ve been a longtime fan of the late Country Dick Montana and the Beat Farmers, and it just seems right to wrap up this Saturday Matinee with Big Ugly Wheels.

Have a great weekend folks, and be back here tomorrow for more fun.

Here is an illustration of the inspiration for Chester Carlson’s world famous invention. Guess what it was before you Google him. Seriously.

Puppy Puzzler

Pooch problem. Doggie dilemma. Canine conundrum.  Bowzer baffler.

See, this is the difference between dogs and cats. The dog looks at that and knows something just ain’t right and tries to figure it out. A cat gives it a sideways glance, thinks “jerk,” and wanders off to take a nap.

Saturday Matinee – Atlas Shrugs, Wendy’s Training Rap & an Awesome Jam

Now THIS should be awesome. Part I of  Ayn Rand’s “Atlas Shrugged” is scheduled for release on 15 April 2011, and the date is no coincidence. I guarantee the movie will be trashed by leftists even before it’s released, just as Terry Gilliam’s great movie  “Brazil” was panned.

Meanwhile, for those of you who don’t know how to put ice in a cup and fill it with soda, and can’t follow directions as simple as “put ice in the cup and fill it with soda,” here’s Wendy’s Rap Tutorial.

How a song was born. A lotta glorious awesome was congregated in that room and recorded on celluloid.

And with that, we’re out. See you back here tomorrow for more fun.
