“Every towel has 10,290 thirsty little dimples.”
That little Irish bastard is stealing your bacon and drilling holes into your skull with those unholy eyes. Reminds me of this.

Alfred Hitchcock’s Storyboards
Storyboards are planning tools, cartoon sketches that depict critical or pertinent scenes in animation, movies (and even amusement park rides). It’s an easy editing process for something that has yet to be filmed, but you already knew that, ya? Have you seen any? Check out these thumbnails.
Jamaica Inn 1936.
Saboteur 1942.
Vertigo 1958.
The Birds 1963.
Marnie 1964.
Family Plot 1976.
Alfred Hitchcock used storyboards for all his movies, and there’s a nice collection here [via].

Buddy Guy from February 2015, pushing 80 years at the time of that interview. He always looked like he had fun playing, as he did in this 1989 vid with Stevie Ray Vaughan:
That wraps it up for this edition of the Saturday Matinee. Have a great weekend, and we’ll have more fun tomorrow.

Oh, and if you were wondering, that’s a Haggis. Only Scots eat them, and it explains and justifies the honorable tradition of wearing kilts.
Saturday Matinee – Glenn Frey & The Eagles, and Tom Waits
One of my favorite Eagles songs. I played that record so much you could see daylight through the grooves. R.I.P Glenn Frey.
The Eagles made me a bluegrass fan with “Midnight Flyer.”
Another favorite from that same album was “Ol’ 55.” It was years later that I found out it was written by Tom Waits.
Head down, chin up, and have a great weekend, folks.
