Michelin Man?
Nothing much happened today.

or
How U.S. citizens view the U.S. Congress.
Take your pick.

Saturday Matinee – Harley Trikes, Joey Smith & Jerry Jeff Walker
Harley-Davidson WTF courtesy of Jonco. Nice soundtrack.
Joey Smith won some kind of blues award without a backup band. I considered that cheating until I heard him shred the awesome.
(No Wiki page yet).
Jerry Jeff Walker can’t rhyme for crap, yet his songs are still awesome.
That does it for this edition of The Saturday Matinee. Come back tomorrow for new oddities.
The .Gif Friday Post No.299 – Fall Season, Dog WIN & Speed Queen Color Spectrum
Oprah?
[Found here. No, I don’t know what it portends either, but it scares the bejeebers outta me.]
Pink Cadillac Babe Magnet
What’s in the trunk? Pure rock and roll.
Note that they’re not just grabbing necks and posing. They’re playing chords with awesome electric axes. If anyone knows who they are, lemme know and give us a iink. We’ll give you credit in an update.

Saturday Matinee – Kaitlin Heller, Ike Willis with Sara Zimmerman & Johnny Winter
The viral Twerking Fail video, uncut. Jimmy Kimmel & stuntwoman Kaitlin Heller chumped the MSM.
Ike Willis‘s version of Zappa’s “Suicide Chump” with Sarah Zimmerman. Most of her stuff is acoustic, but she’s no slouch on electric slide guitar. The last line in the song is “All you can say as you run down the street is:” and Willis cuts it off. In Zappa’s version, it transmogrifies into “Jumbo Go Away.”
Let’s get back to the slide.
Johnny Winter‘s “Mean Town Blues” from 1970, and no, that’s not a cover – he wrote it. Awesome Texas boogie in the style of John Lee Hooker.
That’s it for this edition of The Saturday Matinee. Rock on.
The .Gif Friday Post No. 298 – Juggling Machine, Lego WTF & Nano Motor
What fascinates me about nano motors is that the moving parts are molecules, so they never wear out. I’d assumed that they are also friction-free, but apparently that’s not the case. More here.
Full Moon Next Right
Every year, we call the September Moon the Full Corn Moon because it traditionally corresponds with the time of harvesting corn. It is also called the Barley Moon, because it is the time to harvest and thresh the ripened barley.
This month, we also celebrate what we call a Harvest Moon, which is the full Moon nearest the autumnal equinox. It can occur in September or October and is bright enough to allow finishing all the harvest chores. [via]
