Saturday Matinee – McDonald’s Shadrach Zoom

Timelapse video of McDonald’s food deterioration. Amazing how fast it wastes away to nothing.

Now before we segue into something completely different, here’s a link to a kid who hacked into a news broadcast. First he sped up the feed, then he tossed in his own commentary. (Here, with subtitles. Tip o’ the Tarboosh to mjazz.)

The Larks‘ version of  “Shadrach” is pretty cool gospel. Don’t know what the song’s about? Click here.

The Deep River Boys‘ theatrical version of “Shadrach.”

Louis Armstrong‘s “Shadrach” took the gospel song to a higher level.

The Cadillacs‘ “Zoom,” although not gospel is great R&B stuff. Have a great weekend, folks. Be back here tomorrow.

Just Another Day

[Image found here.]

So there I was, filling up the tank with paraffin, and I spotted a javalina hog. Great. Now I gotta go home dig a pit, build a fire and find some box springs. On the plus side, we won’t have to go to the butcher shop until November 2nd.

Saturday Matinee – Giant Isopods, Claymation, The Swamp, Jolly Boys, Lady Day & Satchmo

Giant Isopods! Yay! [via]

Sure, it’s amateur Claymation, but it kept my attention for the pure and simple oddness of it all.

Talking Heads were one of the premier punk bands out of CBGB’s, even though the punk genre (gawd I hate that word “genre”) was coopted by others who trashed it and gave it a bad name in the late 70s.

The Jolly Boys sing Amy Winehouse’ “Rehab” [via]. I gotta find out more about these guys.

Let’s see. Got four videos up, and since five is ideal for subliminal reasons, let’s roll one more for the road.

Awesome combination of Lady Day and Satchmo.  Have a great weekend, folks, and we’ll be back tomorrow.

[Found first and second in here, third here.]

Update: The double headed picker (Cletus and Shorty) is the work of Tom Kuebler.

Micro Velcro

Lotsa cool electron microscope images with color enhancement found here. Don’t miss the human tongue bacteria to see what’s tasting YOU.

Headplants

I don’t know if this is a ritual, a protest, if they’re being punished for something, or it’s a new crop of tech support.

Well looky what the google found. From here:

JAKARTA: Six residents of Cempaka Putih, Central Jakarta, buried themselves up to their shoulders on Monday in protest of a government plan to evict them from their homes.

The residents buried themselves 1.2 meters deep in the ground.

Salman, 52, one of the residents, said he had been left with no other option to defend his land.

“It is a fight for my children and grandchildren,” he said.

Salman and other residents said they had been living in the area for more than 57 years. The government recently announced a plan to build an office for the religious court on the land.

Two people fainted during the protest, which lasted an hour, Tempointeraktif.com reported.
