YAY! Corduroy flares!
(Looks like fun, but I’d rather be Bert and avoid sniffing the pit.)

[Update:  Mrs. Strutts ID’d  Frank Oz on the right, but doesn’t know who Ernie’s right hand man is.  Of course, that’s Jim Henson’s in the middle.]

Popeye_Smoke & a Coke

Santa Monica, CA (Strutts News Services) – Legendary mariner and celebrity, popularly known as “Popeye” passed away at 2:30AM PST Thursday at St. John’s Health Center in Santa Monica, California.  Leaving behind no documents to prove his full name, Popeye suffered quietly for years from complications caused by hypertension due to  a lifetime of sea salt inhalation.

Popeye’s last words were reported to be, “That’s all’s I can stands, and I can’t stands no more!” before he drifted off.

Khyber Pass, Afghanistan, 1955.  I wonder if camels and donkeys got tickets for blocking traffic.

Saturday Matinee – Government, Milk, Rainstorm, Phones & Violent Love

[Before we start our Saturday Feature Presentation, we found a great concise description that compares different types of government, with historical examples.  Folks, please take 10 minutes to  WATCH THIS, and then pass it on.]

We now resume our regular programming schedule.

Funny milk adverts [Found via Presurfer].

Turn up the sound. The first 1-1/2 minutes is VERY cool:  Rainstorm.

Dem Phones. Really. [Found here.]

Ingrid Lucia & the Flying Neutrinos have an excellent version of Willie Dixon‘s “Violent Love,” with a Billie Holiday groove. Too bad there’s not a live video.

1983 saw OingoBoingo at it’s peak, with a ska version of  “Violent Love.”  Bunk sat at a table next to them at Madam Wong’s without knowing who they were. Then they got on stage and cranked.  (Oh, yeah, if you didn’t know, the lead singer is Danny Elfman.  Yep. That Danny Elfman.)

Very cool algorithm experiments to mess with, like this one. [Found via The Presurfer.]

Great blog title with an excellent banner:  Sergio Leone and the Infield Fly Rule.

Root boot, walk like Ent. Can’t describe it any other way.

I wonder what they were playing. CD Players in Space.

Got a small flock of blackbirds that show up once a year to snag the catfood on the patio.  Recognized GimpyBird from last year; he’s got a club foot. Not being a “birder” I found this excellent site to identify the little bastards.

Amy Oops has a new live chat widget on her site. Go here to talk trash about her (or me, as I guest post). When I visited on Thursday, she was spending her day off killing zombies.  The bad kind.

Here’s the Best Zombie Site. (Some NSFW, most NSFK.)

THIS IS PASTAAAA!
