Saturday Matinee – Animals & Mirrors, The Doghouse, The Greg Johnson Set & The Fabulous Thunderbirds

Animals and mirrors [via].

Beware of The Doghouse. Been there. I overlooked the first Valentine’s Day post-marriage as I considered it to be a dating holiday. I ate damp corrugated cardboard for months [via].

The Greg Johnson Set is a band from New Zealand, sounds like a traditional Irish band, performs “People Can’t Talk In This Town” from 1992. Somehow the concept of Freedom of Speech is being quietly vanquished [via].

Lets lighten it up a tad. How ’bout some great rippin’ by Jimmie Vaughan with The Fabulous Thunderbirds?

Tiny Beasties

You’ve never seen, felt, tasted or heard a single one of these denizens of our world, but they sense you. Not only that, the dorky dude with the  Simpsons eyes and funny teeth could save your life.

The BearPig-lookin’ animal is an 8-legged tardigrade that kicks ass and beats roaches on survivability in extreme conditions. I bet it eats live roaches too – it’s that badass. Even roaches can’t see it.

Click on the images to admire these cute lil’ buggers in large scale.
