The Cloud, Scotland and the return of sparkles.

TEXAS SPARKLE: ZZ TOP, 1970

(thank you)

BREW ME! Wait, what? The amount of care that I shall give about all of this has come and gone. In other words, barley and hops and such always wins over fear of pieces parts.

MEANWHILE, IN SCOTLAND YESTERDAY: The questions heading into yesterday’s vote.

DON’T BE LIKE THAT GUY: Mon Dieu. 

DRAMATIC OWL: 

(thank you)

Because, of course, this.

NOT GONNA LIE: This is one of those stories that make me feel way less crummy about people. WARNING: This is feline oriented. BONUS! This is feline oriented! 

NOT GONNA LIE SOME MORE: This kind of stuff fascinates me. It can also keep me up at night.

SCORE ONE FOR THE UNDERDOG: And it doesn’t get more underdoggity than these guys.

THE TOWN IS FULL OF LIVE ONES:

(thank you)

LIKE SHOOTING FISH IN A BARREL: Right about now I’m wondering how long before I find myself being schooled in this manner.  Also (paging Alanis), this.

PUTIN: He’s pretty much just trolling us now.

SOUND AND VISION: Read if you like David Bowie. Also, more details. I’m not sure but this makes me wonder if he’s wrapping things up with this latest collection.

POINTS TO PONDER:

(thank you)

Just so we are all together here, this blogpost entry contains a tweet that I found on tumblr with a title stolen from a once monumentally huge periodical (that is still around in print form btw). And yes, that hyperlink goes to the online version of their site. Natch.

WAIT, WHAT? A what what? How is it I’ve never heard about or seen one of these before now?

LIGHT POLLUTION: This is something I am somewhat obsessive over. Having just come back from a week in the wilderness where the night sky is a never-ending source of amazement, the fact that we could lose that seems difficult to accept.

INCOMING!
