FinPeng started up his online oddness a year ago today with “Sgt. Peppers’ Lonely Hearts Club Soda.” Go give him a “howdy” and a beer, here. While you’re at it, check out his new site, “The Awesome Squad.” That’s where FinPeng, I and several others will buy YOU a beer… as long as you behave yourself.

EBO WALKER
Now Ebo Walker was born in Kentucky,
and raised by his daddy on a hillside farm,
He took up fiddle playing just for fun,
that’s the last work that Ebo Walker done.
Well Ebo Walker, he left Kentucky
’cause Ebo’s daddy said durn your hide,
You won’t plant corn, and you won’t make hay,
you sit on the porch and play that thing all day.
Well Ebo Walker, he walked and he fiddled and he walked and he fiddled and he fiddled till he died,
But I’ve heard tell when the winds is down and the moon shines bright, and the leaves are brown,
You can hear old Ebo fiddlin’ all around.

Pure Oddness. Now for something completely different.
FZ on the Mike Douglas Show, 1976, playing “Black Napkins” with the studio band. Amazing benign culture clash. [This is part one of a two part interview… kinda slow to load, and we may have linked to this one before. So what.]

Some frugal folks simply amaze me with their ingenuity. What a money saver this is!
In order to make sure that no toothpaste is wasted, just freeze it, cut away the tube, dice it into individual servings. Put the single-serving cubes in a plastic bag and store them in the freezer until needed. When you’re ready to brush, just take one out, thaw it, and brush away! No wasted toothpaste EVER.
Finished product looks like this:
Colors may vary depending on what brand of toothpaste you freeze. For more efficiency you can number them. The ones below are scheduled for use during the month of June.
Send us photos of your toothpaste cubes and let us know how much money YOU saved by being frugal with toothpaste, and we’ll include them in a future post.

Daniel Tammet is amazing.

Here’s Bob and Ray. Google them for more classic straight faced funnies.
The Bobs’ A capellaness is only mildly annoying and somewhat entertaining.
The Rays, with “Silhouettes on the Shade.”
