Very Serious Hair (with zombie boys)

Image above from Sexy People. The site has many pictures of average, but slightly odd-looking people.  When viewed individually, they aren’t much, but when viewed collectively, heh,  it’s a Mag-Lev train to Hootsville.

zombie-boys_sexy-people-70s

mrgoogle_cropped1A year later, the zomboys are still in sheer terror, suddenly realizing that the rest of their lives will be spent hunting for brains.  (Here’s another example of a kid who gets better looking with age.)

I suppose I fall into the same category of normal-yet-slightly-odd-looking people.  But of course you folks already know who I am.

Speaking of coffee, Rockhoppers has a radio ad.

“We’ve seen just a skyrocketing autism rate.  Some people are suspicious that it’s connected to the vaccines. This person included.” More scientific ignoramuses here.

James Burke’s excellent series “Connections” is required viewing. Here’s Part 3 of Episode 1.  I’d forgotten about the show until Mr. GAB reminded me.

The Ocapellos were the greatest singing group ever if only because Frank Zappa took their song “The Stars” and mooshed it into “Fountain of Love,” recorded as Ruben & the Jets.

Speaking of Frank Zappa, one of his greatest influences was one Edgard Varese.  John M. of Uncertain Times found some great gems and posted them here.

Hot Links Meets the Werewolf

Marble Furnace, OH (Strutts News Service)
Dog Sucked into HVAC Return Air Grille. Film at 11.

Before you go any further, check out Pandora Radio, search for Louis Armstrong, click play, and then continue. You’ll like it, especially on a Sunday morning with fried eggs sprinkled with garlic powder, sausage patties, and sourdough toast slathered with real butter.  That’s what I’m gonna do.  Makes the rest of the week just gravy.

The Clogblogger is a Blog about Clogs.

Four women with different problems here. No. 3 is my favorite.

Conquest of the Planet of the Hot Links

THIS is absolutely the worst version of Flatt & Scrugg’s “Foggy Mountain Breakdown” I’ve ever heard.  [Found at Strider’s Journal.]

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.
