Remember the banjo boy from Deliverance? His name is Billy Redden.

Shannon asks the wrong guy to do a missing cat poster.
[Update 20 July 2010– David Thorne’s website is here. Expect to be entertained for the next few hours.]

Awesome model train museum in Germany is awesome.

Here’s a phrase you don’t hear often: Virtual Centipede Head.

Here’s another phrase you don’t hear often: Virtual Sinus Surgery Simulator.

This blog is rated PG because I used word “fart” once and said “crack” three times, according to this site.

The world’s most annoying parrot?

[Update– Deleted reference to FaceBook probs.]

Larry

The Three Stooges would have been nothing without Larry Fine, and all you have to do is imagine Moe Howard with only Curly Howard, or Moe with only Shemp Howard.  To be sure,  a team of  Shemp, Curly and Larry wouldn’t have lasted long without Moe Howard’s belligerence.  Larry Fine was awesome.

Saturday Matinee – FAIL fail, Original Star Trek, Robert Klein, Friends of Distinction, Cornelius Brothers, War

FAIL fail = WIN
Reminds me of the 2nd .gif  here.

The original Star Trek was the best. Check out how young Kirk and McCoy look [via].

I might have posted this before, but Robert Klein was truly funny occasionally. If anyone has a clip of his classic “I Can’t Stop My Leg,” lemme know.

Classic summer song by The Friends of Distinction.

Here’s The Cornelius Brothers in Ft. Lauderdale in 1983, reprising their hit from 1972. (The video link above jumps to other stuff; couldn’t find a solitary link of a live show.)

Also from 1972, here’s War‘s live version of “Slipping Into Darkness.” Early 70s funk was awesome. Have a great weekend, folks, and be back here tomorrow for more funk and games.

And The Crowd Goes Wild

That’s one hardcore fan.

Security Warning = An Ounce of Prevention

Simple, yet effective. No dinosaurs have threatened this household since the warning sign was posted by a safety-conscious 4 year old. I’m going to enlarge the image, print it and post it on our front door, just in case.

Saturday Matinee – Dinocuts, Wanda Jackson, Louis Prima & Betty Boop, Spotniks and Ricky Skaggs

Awesome marketing concept, but it targets the wrong people, unless you’re into shrinkwrap. Nice appropriate soundtrack, though.

Wanda Jackson! Who says women can’t do rockabilly?

Whoever did this Betty Boop / Louis Prima mashup gets a hat tip from me.  Whoa. Hold on there. Looks like it’s time for some Spotniks!

Yep. The Spotnik’s Theme from 1963, a band from the UK, sounding an awful lot like lots of other bands from 1963.

Let’s wrap this up with some awesome gospel from Ricky Skaggs, the greatest mandolin player since Bill Monroe. Have a great weekend folks. See you back here tomorrow.
