Hard to tell who she’s addressing with that sign while waddling in a parade of fugliness. I guess one of the other javelinas demanded a snack and Ms. Cerdita Hambrienta was having none of it, perhaps because the L.A. “We Have Vajayjays And You Don’t” protest march had yet to make it to the trough.

Good thing they had the hoopla outdoors because few people would enjoy the grunting and squealing in a hot humid IHOP meeting room, even if it were free and catered. And now it’s time for another big sweaty stinkin’ & stupid episode of The Overnight Open Thread.

Bet if you showed that to some of the younger set they wouldn’t know what kind of exercise machine shadowboy is climbing on, but it doesn’t really matter. It’s one of those “you know you’re old when” kind of things.

For example, a few years ago one of my kids asked me why we say “dial this number” when talking about making a phone call. On the other hand, one of them asked me to “rewind” the music CD that was playing, which makes them old.

I don’t know the original source for that .gif, but I do know that it’s time to fast forward to The Overnight Open Thread.

On growing up in New Orleans Parish: “There was music all around us, and in my family you’d better play something, even if you just banged on a tin can.” Lonnie Johnson

Lonnie Johnson created the single-note guitar solo in the 1920s, and decades passed before the guitar was regarded as more than a background rhythm instrument. Although Johnson is primarily regarded as a bluesman, he played other styles equally well.

I don’t know who’s on drums or piano, but that’s Willie Dixon on bass, and the vid is likely from the mid to late 1960s. Don’t know who introduced Lonnie Johnson on that vid either, so the best thing is for me to shut up and introduce
The Overnight Open Thread.

Political Meme Mashup = WIN

The whole dog meme amuses me because it’s inherently stupid on so many levels. I like stupid when it’s funny, so let’s sum it up.

The Left made a big deal about how Mitt Romney transported his dog in a carrier decades ago.
The Right countered with Ayers’ Obama’s claim that he ate a dog decades ago.
The Left responded with outrage that the Right had the audacity to mock them and put dogs in the middle of the Important Political Discussion  that the Left brought up in the first place.

So let’s clear the air. According to the AKC, this is NOT how to transport a dog:

THIS is the proper way to transport a dog, according to Obama and his disciples:

If I were a dog on the internet and was able to type an opinion, I’d tell the world, “Don’t eat me.” Then I’d tell them, “Don’t put me in a box in the dark belly of a plane because I’ll be scared for hours.” Then I’d say, “Let me car surf instead on The Overnight Open Thread.”
