These .gifs kinda remind me of last night’s GOP presidential debates for some reason. [Found here, here and here.]

No Ball
I remember playing No Ball. The games would go on until someone’s porch light came on, and we’d ignore it. Then someone’s mom would holler at us and the game was postponed. The score remained the same (343 to 352) until we resumed the following day and stopped again at sundown (441 to 455).

LOL FERRET: EPISODE 1
Although Bosley the Ferret passed away years ago, he still produces smiles. First posted on 8 November 2007, Bosley has staying power with a score of 1/2/2 and over 44,580 hits, despite the fact that I didn’t know there was an established protocol for posting “Lol” memes at the time (hence the font and non-meme-correct “LolSpeak”).
Thanks for all your visits and favorites, and I wish you all the best,

Saturday Matinee – Rock Rock Rock, Rockabilly & R.L. Burnside
“Rock Rock Rock” was the first video tape I ever purchased. Got it for $9.99 in a sale bin, then I saved up for a VCR player so that I could watch it. Classic performances by classic rockers wrapped around an unbelievably crappy story. It’s 90 minutes of fast-fowarding awesome (but I suggest you follow the plot at least once).
Rockabilly LA. Considering that Los Angeles had just about nothing to do with the advent of Rockabilly except to lure the hayseeds into fraudulent recording contracts, we’ll post it anyway.
So where do we go from here? How ’bout some vintage country ‘lectra blues?
That’s R.L. Burnside from 1978. Let’s go one more. This one’s from 1998.
That should hold y’all for a while. Have a great weekend, folks.
