November 29, 2011

It was kind of crazy at work today and I’m still going in early because everyone’s taking their vacation time. I’m a little beat and thought I would take my Monday sixpack of photos at Chez Wombacher and match them up with videos I think belong with them. I try to go out every night, but what I like about this blog is the freedom to do it from my apartment now and again, so it’s homeward bound we go!

I'm looking through you, where did you go,
I thought I knew you, what did I know?

Hey everybody, did the news get around,
About a guy named Butcher Pete,
Oh, Pete just flew into this town,
And he's choppin' up all the women's meat.

Believe it or not George isn't at home,
Please leave a message at the beep.
Believe it or not, I’m not home.

Well, the first time I lose I drink whiskey,
Second time I lose I drink gin,
Third time I lose I drink anything,
'cause I think I'm gonna win.

Can you spell ashtray please?

I don’t care if it rains or freezes,
Long as I got my plastic Jesus,
Sittin’ on the dashboard of my car.

Further reading: Wikipedia, Schoolhouse Rock and The Six Show.

When he holds my hand I'm so proud,
'Cos he's not just one of the crowd.

Bonus Photos From Biff!

Biff sent in the following photos of the latest Cardboard Box Man mutation sightings. Here's her report: "I was watching Yard Crashers on HGTV a couple of weeks ago and those fuckers actually BUILT a stony, frightening cousin of CBBM! And then today I was walking Lucy and came across CBBM's super friendly and smiley cousin, Twig Man. I like him way better than all the others." Thanks, Bifferoonie, nice to see a somewhat friendly CBBM mutation!

Yay, the butcher album made it into the six pack! :)

Judging by Jesus' crossed eyes, I can only assume that he's blessing his own nose.

@Jaws: Thanks, but let's leave my sex life out of this!

csp: Ha! True, I didn't notice!

@Britta: I thought of you as I took the photo, I remember you taking a photo of it.

@Biff: Ha ha ha! I think you're right, he's blessing those Jesus boogers.

Not much to add today. I will give you the link here to a new book about Paul Nelson, rock music critic and a very good writer for RS who passed away in 2007 in New York, having more or less dropped out of society his last few years and was working at a video store in Manhattan at the end, sad story but full of details about punk rock, NY Dolls, Warren Zevon, etc.. http://kevinavery.com/ I plan on buying it asap.

@Melanie: And a woo woo to you you!

@Gidgie: Thanks, I think we all live off that highway from time to time!

@ Al: Thanks for the link, I just checked it out and I'm going to buy copy too, looks like a great read!

@rr: Sometimes 2+2=6 if you are rushing.

November 29, 2011 | Unregistered Commentercsp

@rr: Gomer and Sgt. Carter will make an appearnce soon, I promise! Great quote, long live WKOQ!

@csp and rr: But what if six was nine?

Let me make it plain and simple. Jimi is a demi-god. Racists take heed. this negro was light years ahead of his contemporaries. Currently, I tend towards the bleep and bloop end of the music spectrum, but I can always respect Jiimi. Here's a contemporary who fancied himself as a native-American singing something similar.

*negro used purposely, so chill.

Pain medicine, twisted am I.

If Alex knew Ray, and Ray knew Jim, then we are what exactly? Sorry, headed to refinishing school.

November 30, 2011 | Unregistered Commentercsp

Nothing to see here.

@csp: Don't bogart that pain medicine! Nice linkage, thanks!
