Daddy Played Bass, Momma Sang Tuna

I remember when I was young;
Times were hard when I was young.
Daddy would sit us in a circle, try to teach us vocal parts.
But we sounded so absurd,
’cause nobody ever sang the third.
For a singin’ group, we just weren’t all that sharp.

Daddy sang bass, Momma sang tenor;
Me and little brother sang bass and tenor;
Singin’ Gospel songs so bad it was a sin.

Daddy sang bass, Momma sang tenor;
Me and little brother sang bass and tenor;
All the dogs out in the yard would join right in. – Pinkard & Bowden

ALL YOUR BASS ARE BELONG TO US on The Overnight Open Thread.

How to eat spaghetti correctly, as demonstrated by Buster Keaton and Fatty Arbuckle in 1918.  A century minus seven years later, it’s still apropos, and there’s more aproponess here. As for skinny pasta, grab a plate and suck it up, on The Overnight Open Thread.

Pure Awesome.

It’s also purely coincidental that we found that image of a WereSlug last night and scheduled it to follow a story about LGF’s Killgore Trout.

The connection might not be obvious to those who don’t know/don’t care about LGF or KT, but for those who are curious, here’s a linky; more on Killgore’s nasty chicanery here. As for slugs, there’s an amazing video here.

But back to the WereSlug. Kid’s got this guy beat by a mile, and I hope he gets all he can eat from KT’s kale patch during The Overnight Open Thread.

Not sure what’s going on here (I lost the link) but it looks like something The Blogmocracy Rec Room needs asap.

Out of time tonight, so rather than delay the inevitable, I’m gonna squid while I’m ahead and roll right into The Overnight Open Thread.

Update: The SquidMobile is the work of these guys:

Artists François Delarozière and Pierre Orefice are exhibiting their strange mechanical sculptures in Nantes, France. These huge moving, ride-on steampunk mechanical contrivances of an elephant, squid, deep-sea fish and others are a fascinating moving exhibit.
