Do You Remember This Show?


Then you're an old fart like me!

What Did He Say????

In case you ever wondered just what the hell Joe Cocker's singing about...this one has subtitles!

*Apparently this video was made as birthday gift for someone named April as evidenced by the ending.

This Makes Me Happy

Heavy Load are a UK punk band with a twist...all of the members have developmental disabilities . I just love stuff like this, and not because I think it's funny or weird, but because it shows just how much life people with these disabilities have and how they just want to be like you and me. I can't wait to see the whole film, but here's a little sneak preview brought to you by the always cool Boing Boing & Verizon (more links on their site).

T-Shirt of the Day

Today's selection is another awesome piece of work from TorsoPants. Being a fan of both the theory of Communism (it's execution has always been flawed) and also the iconography, I loved this shirt when I saw it and had to have it. It's Vladimir Lenin's head atop John Lennon's body from the famous picture of him wearing his "New York City" T-Shit. Check out the fine folks at TorsoPants and see if they have something you like. The best thing about TorsoPants (besides their varied selection of dry humor T-Shirts) is that you can "customize" you T-Shirt by choosing the color and style of the T-Shirt you want! Get some Pants for your Torso today!

Potluck Monday

Today I'm going to feature one band and that band is DEVO. DEVO doesn't really fit into any of my other daily categories (though some would argue they're punk rock...and I sort of agree) and they're one of my favorites. Just look at the title of this blog...

R.I.P. George Carlin

I don't have much to say that you haven't already read, but he will be
greatly missed. A true inspiration and a man worth looking up to. I
guess with the life he lived we were lucky to have him this long. You
can find many of his full length stand-up specials online if you want
to watch them but I'll just pay tribute with a short clip. Thank you
Mr. Carlin for many years of laughter that you've already given us and
the many laughs we will have in the future thanks to your timeless comedy
and poignant social commentary.
