Yeah, but it could happen. Video is by the Corridor Crew .

Quirky vid, catchy song, and an f-bomb, Mad Sin plays “a combination of rockabilly, punk, white-trash blues and tongue-in-cheek sarcasm.”

Lara Hope & The Ark-Tones do the roots rock retro nicely.

Too cool not to share. Moon Hooch got stuck in a traffic jam in France and decided to make the best of it. Most popular Utoob comment? This:
*marches all the way to front of traffic jam
*four car collision accident no survivors
So there you go. Have a great weekend, try out this Superbowl Chili and lemme know how fast it goes.

The DeMoulin Bros. Co. supplied hazing equipment for fraternal organization initiations in the early 1900s. Some of the gaffes were truly bizarre.
Apparently the company is out of the fraternity prank business and has moved onto other products: scary marching band uniforms.

Bonus : Here’s a restored “Fuzzy Wonder” (and a “Spanker”).
