Serious Blockage

Someone spent a lot of time on this sculpture, but what I like best about it is that it’s  made out of wood, hopefully culled from a rain forest somewhere in the Pacific Northwest, and fastened to a board with a toxic adhesive derived from the bile of boogeymen and tested on lab-rabbits’ eyes as required by the EPA.

It also takes electrical energy to view it. Real electrical energy with tungsten filaments heating up the atmosphere to prevent imminent Global Cooling. Cutsey little weenie curly fluorescent lamps just don’t cut it here.

I suppose you could mount it on a wall perpendicular to the rays of the sun, but then you could only see the image for about 30 seconds two times a year. If the day is overcast after you and your friends rearranged work schedules just to view it, you’re screwed, and  that would suck donkeys big time.

Speaking of donkeys, here’s another big ass installment of The Overnight Open Thread.

Nothing Much Happened Last Weekend.

Yeah, it was pretty much same ol’ same ol’ around these parts this past weekend, except The Blogmocracy updated the format, The BRC stole a bunch of you-know-whats from you-know-where, and the cat left another mess behind the Rec Room couch.

That’s the Weekend In Review, a special feature of The Overnight Open Thread.

Just for fun. If you missed it on Diary of Daedalus, here’s how it went down:

1. Charles Johnson posts his usual tripe [cache link].

2. Robert Stacy McCain takes a screencap of CJ’s inanity and posts it on his own blog.

3. Charles notices that he’s got McCain’s attention once more, so Charles posts complaints about his victimhood and includes a screencap of McCain’s post [cache link].

4. The Boiler Room Crew takes notice and just can’t pass up the opportunity to post a screencap of a screencap of a screencap of a screencap.

5. ISTE forwards THIS screencap of a screencap of a screencap of a screencap of a screencap.

6. The quintuple screencap is posted on The Overnight Open Thread. (more…)

Fun With Hydraulics 101: The Lowlowrider (or in Hawai’i, The Lolorider).

Even sporting gray primer, this 1959 Buick Electra rocks. The only way it could out-rock itself is if it were a convertible with a candy-apple red/flame-orange blend lacquer paint job with panther print upholstery. It’d get speeding tickets at a stoplight.

If we had an Official Blogmocramobile, this pavement polisher could be it, but for now we’ll have to settle for the tuck-n-roll upholstery of the Rec Room couch at the local drive-in, better known as The Overnight Open Thread.
