WWRAD?

As anyone who’s karaoked with me more than once knows, there’s a lot of things Rick Astley won’t do.

Garfield

When Garfield is removed from his eponymous daily strip, suddenly it’s funny.

Rowllin’

This shot of Run DMC (not ‘Shopped) has got to be the apogee of the hip-hop car portrait (a subgenre I need to look into).

Eyeteeth

My friend Paul and his wife are traveling in Thailand and collecting some great pics and stories.

Pink frosting

While my family visits with friends across the alley, I’m passing a sub-zero V-Day evening with some silly sites:

>> Stuff White People Like

>> The “Blog” of “Unnecessary” Quotation Marks

>> Math- and Science- Themed Tattoos

>> (best of all) Barack Obama Is Your New Bicycle

Happy Darvalwintines Day

Polaroid memories

Since it’s official that there won’t be any more Polaroid film to buy after 2009, I’m going to give that bulbous, green 1998 model I got from Kelly a last hurrah before it’s too late.

And maybe it’s time Craig and his long-postponed Polaroid Museum get their act together.

Saturday night radio

As always this time Saturday on KFAI, Saddiq at RSE is tearing it up. Ices T and Cube, the Biz, ATCQ, Rakim—right in the zone, 1986 – 93. I only wish they’d put their playlists online.

Fortunately, they do archive and stream.

Hangin’ next door

Our neighbors Ann and Scott have Johanna over frequently so her folks can party (or sleep or clean or goof off). Among the many nice features of this set up are their email dispatches that often include superb pics.

From yesterday:
Johanna started quiet but ended like a vaudeville performer on a particularly good night.

Really fast drinking

This blog is not yet 24-hours old, but yes, I’m already posting a YouTube from a Japanese game show.

See also, really fast clapping.
