2019 Grumpkin

The missus did this one freehand.

Paper Wolf

Pretty cool paper sculpture kit for under $10. If I was 14 I’d want it, but I’m not 14, and I still want it. [Found here.]

Pair it up with this, and you’ll be your nephew’s Favorite Uncle (or your niece’s Favorite Aunt) forever.

Don’t forget the paint.

Saturday Matinee – The Sounds Of Water & Beer, Chick Music, Ten Years After & Robbie Robertson

Just in time for Oktoberfest. [h/t Nancy H.]

I’m speechless. I hope Archie McPhee got some royalty bucks from this one [via].

Ten Years After was one of my favorite blues-rock bands before I even knew what blues-rock was. Alvin Lee was killer.

Yeah. This. I never quite knew what the song meant, but I still like it [found here.].

Have a great weekend, folks, beware of liars, & we’ll see you back here tomorrow for stuff.

Saturday Matinee – The Nablus Soap Factory, WHODAT, Fishing With John & FISHBONE

Amazing. The contents of clay cylinders found during the excavation of ancient Babylon is evidence that soapmaking was known as early as 2800BC, and these guys in Nablus are still doing it the ancient way, by hand. Why?

Nice animation that must have taken a while to make [via].

Fishing with John (with Japanese subtitles). From the Utoobage comments: “The problem with other fishing shows is that they are too polished, too normal. And they don’t have enough Tom Waits.”

Reminds me of “The Fishin’ Musician” series featuring John Candy.

Now for something completely different.

I don’t know what Fishbone was yammering about here, but I like the vibe.

As long as a tune was good, I never paid much attention to lyrics, but sometimes, years later, I found that the songs I liked a lot weren’t about what I thought they were about at all.

Have a great weekend, folks. See you back here tomorrow for stuff.
