The Neville Brothers with “Brother John / Iko Iko” 1995, Stuttgart.

According to Wikipedia:
The song “Iko Iko” was written in 1953 in New Orleans by James “Sugar Boy” Crawford about two competing Mardi Gras Tribes/Krewes. “Jock-a-mo” was the original version of the song “Iko Iko” recorded by The Dixie Cups in 1965. Their version came about by accident. They were in a New York City studio for a recording session when they began an impromptu version of “Iko Iko,” accompanied only by drumsticks on studio ashtrays.
[Listen to it on the Utoobage here. Lyrics are in the notes.]

Other trivia: Crawford formed a band which local DJ Doctor Daddy-O named “The Chapaka Shawee” – Creole for “We Aren’t Raccoons.”

“Hi Gramma! I Made You a Lamp!”

“Gramma, I know that you and Grampa escaped the old country without shoes, but capitalism is evil, so I made you a lamp to show you how wrong you were to leave.” –Overheard at Zuccotti Park September 2012.

September 2012 Attacks on US Embassies

Anyone may steal and repost that image. Original found here.

These are the same types who claimed that “Everybody Draw Mohammed Day” was blasphemy and worth killing people for it. Nevermind that images of Mohammed have been painted and reproduced for centuries.  Every one of those little blue assholes on the map should be targets, IMO, and they probably are already.

Do I really have to add a caveat that innocent non-combatants be saved?  Yeah, I do, because I don’t believe that all Muslims are extremists, never have. Can’t defend the Wahabbist assholes, though.

Carry on.

Updated comment from the source:

“I see this and I think, cripes, man, have you seen even PART of that ridiculous shitty thing?  It’s all blackface and offensive mostly because it is so poorly done, designed to offend, like a joke that is all punchline and no build-up.   To be offended by that piece of shit is an offense to me. […] C’mon, Arab World, riot over some shit that matters.”

Did you spot that […]?  That’s where the commenter went scooters and blamed GWB. Otherwise I agree with him.

UPDATE 9:00PM 15 September 2012:  I don’t care how stupid, ignorant or deranged someone is, but this ain’t right. The guy has a Constitutional First Amendment Right and was arrested FOR EXPRESSING HIS OWN OPINION.

Folks, this is very wrong, and very disturbing.

No, that’s not Seamus Romney, as if one’s preferred method of transporting a dog has anything to do with one’s qualifications for President of the USA.  Did he pick them up by the ears? Nah, yet Obama ate one, by his own admission.

Do I care? Um, yeah.
