Holy Terror
That’s the everted scolex of a Taenia solium, aka, a Pork Tapeworm. How they were able to turn a scolex inside out, or why, is beyond my pay grade.
Teresa Zgoda won 4th Place in the 2017 Nikon Photomicrography Competition with that terrifying micro monster maw. [Found here.]
Saturday Matinee – Kirsten Lepore, Sid Laverents, Unknown Boogie Master & Commander Cody
Kirsten Lepore‘s animated short “Bottle” won awards.
Sid Laverents played the classic song “Nola,” written in 1915 by pianist Felix Arndt (author of many player piano rolls). Laverents 1970 short film film Multiple SIDosis is one of the few amateur films to have been selected for inclusion in the National Film Registry [h/t wheels].
BTW, Newark Athelete (1891) is the oldest film in the NFR and runs about 10 seconds.
Workman on lunch break plays boogie woogie at the Public Piano in St Pancras Station, London. Some think he was just a plant in a public works suit, but so what. It’s all entertainment.
Commander Cody‘s vintage 1977 cover of Bradley & McKinley’s 1940 classic “Beat Me Daddy, Eight to the Bar.” Nicolette Larson was one of the backup singers.
Have a great weekend, folks. We’ll do you proud. Or not.

Saturday Matinee – Clanadonia, Mickey Hart / Planet Drum & Joe Bonamassa with Tina Guo
How ’bout something primal? Nothing better than Scottish tribal drums and bagpipes. Clanadonia is what it is, and it’s loud. “The Last of the Glaswegians” is going to be stuck in my head for days.
Mickey Hart & Planet Drum perform “Fire On The Mountain” (24 July 1999, Rome, New York).
Amazing speed cellist Tina Guo jams it with Joe Bonamassa on “Woke Up Dreaming” at Carnegie Hall (June 2017?). Takes them a bit to get in synch, then it soars. Guo’s take on Led Zeppelin’s “Kashmir” is fun, too.
Have a great weekend folks.
