Spike Jones & His City Slickers were amazingly talented but very corny.
Homer & Jethro grew up on corn, and were musically talented as well.
The Smothers Brothers sing “Boil That Cabbage Down” that includes the history of the Trans-Continental Railroad.
Rodney Carrington‘s song about an awful day (and it’s worse than finding pumas in the crevasse).
Red attacks Green who attacks back, while both are under the control of Yellow without knowing it. Kinda like Rock-Paper-Scissors, with Paper in charge.

This plague plaque comes with a self-adhesive strip for convenient mounting at the eye level of your choice.
She wants you to right-click on her. Now.
Chuck Norris vs. Nancy Pelosi.
The Intro to “The Prisoner.” Great ’60s spy/spook/paranoia TV show about freedom. No. 6 never gives up his ethics, even when given the opportunities. There are way too many politicians these days, and too few are No. 6’s. [Yeah I know, it’s a link repost. It’s still great, though.]
Sunday is FUNDAY! from FinPeng.
Make your own KFC Cardboard Colonel.

Fly a balloon – This one’s been around a while, but it’s still clever. Click the link and ride.
Lotsa “Crappy Album Covers” here. Don’t miss “Fun With Joyce.” (Related posts here and here.)
Vinyl Abuse has some interesting figurines for some not so interesting prices. Worth a look, though.
Here’s an archive of links about B.O.
Dionne Warwick’s Cosmic Peephole. Really.
Webpost titled “Moms with IBS.” I don’t know why it was linked to this post, but Barrack works in mysterious ways.

Cool animation.
Talking Heads: Wild Wild Life
The Ramones: Sheena Is a Punk Rocker
Tom Waits: Downtown Train
