Ricky Tic in 'Ricky Tic & the Nazi'
...and don't forget Ricky Tic in 'How Germany Lost The War'
Notice also the painting on the wall of the flying 'thing' from the back of Ricky Tic's jacket which has been described as "like a pitbull body with fish fins and a horse’s head with doberman ears and a human ass being penetrated by the small end of a baseball bat.." LOL!
More on Phillip Garrido
"...Phillip Garrido has been named as a "person of interest" by investigators looking back at the unsolved murders. However, questions are also mounting about why the authorities did not take a greater interest in Garrido and his wife in recent years. In 2006, the police received an emergency call in which the caller said Garrido was housing children "in tents in his backyard" and also accused him of being a "psychotic sex addict". Despite this, the police never searched behind his house...It has also emerged that since last December officials, including parole agents and sheriff's deputies, had visited the couple some 16 times for a variety of reasons yet had failed to detect anything was wrong..."

If you enter his home address of 'Walnut Avenue, Antioch California' into Google Earth and follow the road away from it you can see
Garrido's van trailing the Google van for a while!

Yidcore -They Tried To Kill Us. They Failed. Let's Eat!
"After battling Adam Sandlers, Bettezillas and a fair few lawsuits, Melbourne band Yidcore now take on their greatest foe yet... PIGLER! The awesome new animated video - part Animal Farm, part 50's comic book and part South Park. Directed by Yeap Heng Shen and Produced by ANIMATION CLUB!"

Might As Well - The Persuasions Sing The Grateful Dead (2000)Dead a cappella
With only their collective voices, The Persuasions can turn almost any musical composition into smooth, groovin' doo-wop or gospel. They also have fun stretching the boundaries at the same time. It wasn't all that surprising with Frankly a cappella - The Persuasions Sing Zappa (their Frank Zappa covers disc) because doo-wop was such a crucial building block in Frank's early constructions. But the Grateful Dead? Those guys were into bluegrass and banjo music back when the Persuasions were first conceptualizing their stylistic blend of street corner harmonics and black-centric doo-wop. Since then, The Persuasions have transcended those root styles to encompass various musical genres, incorporating proper instrumentation when it serves their purpose (as in the gospel-tinged piano work in "Ship Of Fools," below). You like The Dead? You like a cappella? You should like this, even if you never really listen that much to either. (@320)

New Thom Yorke 12" due Sept 22
Nothing like (possible) news of even more new material from those busy Radiohead guys. According to an Exclaim! report (via TwentyFourBit), Thom Yorke is set to release a limited edition 12" featuring two new songs called "Apart by Horses" and "The Hollow Earth" September 22 via TBD. And limited means limited; the story claims only about 8,000 copies of the vinyl-only release will be available worldwide.
There's no official word on this release just yet, but it seems to fall in line with those Twilight soundtrack rumors and the modest bounty of new material put forth by the Radiohead camp lately, including the stealthy leak "These Are My Twisted Words", the string-y tribute "Harry Patch (In Memory Of)", and Yorke's cover of Mark Mulcahy's "All for the Best".
Meanwhile, Kid A, Amnesiac, and Hail to the Thief were reissued last week, too.

In memory of the thousands of men & women executed by the Islamic regime of Iran in the 1980's and the hundreds of young people who were killed during the uprising by the Iranian people in June 2009.More on Blackwater/Xe
"When the CIA revived a plan to kill or capture terrorists in 2004, the agency turned to the well-connected security company then known as Blackwater USA. With Blackwater's lucrative government security work and contacts arrayed in hot spots around the world, company officials offered the services of foreigners supposedly skilled at tracking terrorists in lawless regions and countries where the CIA had no working relationships with the government. Blackwater told the CIA that it "could put people on the ground to provide the surveillance and support – all of the things you need to conduct an operation," a former senior CIA official familiar with the secret program told The Associated Press..."

Random ham radio trollfight: August 29 2009 Los Angeles CA
Two trolls on ham radio, one identified as "G-K," the other as "Robert" or "R-J" overheard accidentally on August 29, 2009, while surfing first responder frequencies during the August 2009 Los Angeles wildfires.
The two men argued with each other about various technical subjects of interest to radio ops, then discussed drugs and past jail time, then notes on an Andy Griffith show marathon, then torture they'd like to perform on each other.
Technical note: sorry about the audible LOLs -- a friend held the scanner in their lap, and I held my iPhone 3Gs above the scanner, using "voice memo" app to record the audio.

'Animal Cam'
The Museum of Animal Perspectives sticks cameras on the heads of animals and uploads the resulting videos to Flickr. I'm fond of the armadillocam, but wolfcam and cowcam are pretty cool too. Ooh! Pigcam! Goatcam! Cow licking own rearcam!For J Spacebubs: Flower Fairy & DUB FX - Row Your Boat
August 2009 in the gaggeldub studio 53, Kaulitz, Germany.
Dub Fx the street-loop-beatboxer grew up in St Kilda / Melbourne / Australia performing in various bands before hitting the world-wide road. Dub Fx uses Roland BOSS effect & loop pedals to create sounds which when layered creates a live musical construct. Predominantly Dub Fx can be found busking through Europe with his Girlfriend the ‘Flower Fairy’.

HA! (The 'victim' fugs up...)
As 'Gomonkeygo' said:
"Now, I don't know what an "oligarhy" is (though it's pronounced, according to Glenn, like a word that should be spelled "oligarchy" - go figure!)...
...I have to hand it to the little freak, though. He's really masterful at the fine art of riling scared folks up into a frenzy. I'm guessing nine-tenths of his viewers spent a couple hours trying to Google "Oligarhy" and when they couldn't find it, just got more scared. I mean, when "The Google" is in on the conspiracy, too, and tries to tell you that maybe you are really looking for is some totally insane word nobody's ever heard of, like "oligarchy," then you know it's time to hit the streets with full auto's blazing!!!!
White folks, hide under your beds! The Oligarhy is coming! Hide your children! Destroy your Social Security card and the implant in it they track you with!!! Hide your funny men, the ones with soft things on their chests and the ability to bear children even though you can't, a strange and frightening fact that you just don't understand even though every day you give birth to little dirt babies so why can't you make real babies! It's a sad puzzle! The Oligarhy is coming!
I hope it brings ice cream."
PS: His project!

HEALTH CARE REFORM: MYTHS & FACTS.
BY ROB KUTNER
- - - -
MYTH:
The Democratic health care reform proposal will not let you choose your own doctor.
FACT:
You will have a wider-than-ever range of doctors to choose from! In order to accommodate 45 million new patients, the plan expands the definition of "doctor" from "medically licensed professional" to now also include:
• Morning radio DJs who have adopted the moniker
• Televised bullies (Phil, Laura)
• PhDs in any field, and "All But Dissertation" PhD candidates. Trust us, you will have no problem getting an appointment to see these master procrastinators.
• Soda creators (Pepper, Brown*)
- - - -
MYTH:
Obamacare™ will ration life-saving medicine away from the elderly and disabled via "Death Panels."
FACT:
While nothing can replicate the current mercy-driven system of rationing via "Private Insurer Form Letter," the new proposal certainly does not consign end-of-life decisions to panels of faceless bureaucrats. Rather, they are taken up by exciting, glamorous "Celebrity Death Panels"™ (C-List minimum).
- - - -
MYTH:
People in Britain are deeply unhappy with their socialized medicine system, which ours will become.
FACT:
People in Britain are deeply unhappy with everything. It is their only source of happiness.
- - - -
MYTH:
Universal health care will transform the United States into another Cuba/Canada/France/Venezuela/The Democratic Republic of the Congo.
FACT:
A common misconception! It will, in fact, transform us into a Jamaica/Costa Rica/Amsterdam/Chad.
- - - -
MYTH:
If you do it standing up, you'll have a boy.
FACT:
The BHO-HMO offers full coverage for pre-, neo- and post-natal care, without regard to procreative positioning.^
- - - -
MYTH:
Athena emerged, fully grown, from the skull of Zeus.
FACT:
Despite being King of the Gods and Lord of Thunder™, Zeus was denied medical coverage by private insurers due to being classed with a "Priapistic condition." This painfully constant state of male "preparedness" could only be tamed by nonstop anonymous intercourse. Frankly, it's a wonder Athena is the only creature to emerge from his body.
- - - -
MYTH:
Suzie Jenkins' mom is, like, a total "alkie."
FACT:
Totally.

Days gone by
Nothing that I can add to the ever wonderful LKJ, as for Aswad...one of the best roots bands that to my ears just seemed to lose it almost overnight. UK viewers may remember Brinsley Forde from TV's 'The Double Deckers'!
Dillinger - Cocaine In My Brain
I used to have a flexi single by the Boomtown Rats from one of the teenybop mags of the time that had an amusing song where the lyrics went:
"drab and dreary, tired and weary, that's the way you spell Dun Loaghaire".
Big Youth - Train To Rhodesia
1976. My first time in London by myself and I am desperately trying to find a copy of Big Youth's 'Dreadlocks Dread' (this is before it was re-released on Virgin.) Asking a dread up at Ladbroke Grove, where I was on my Hawkwind pilgrimage by having a cup of tea in the 'Mountain Grill' and he points me to a place where I scored a copy of it. The dread was Barry Ford, the drummer with the pub rock band Clancy who was just about to start his own band Merger.
(* Memo to Steve Barker from The Wire, he never played with The Kilburns, that was David
Rohoman.)

Noel quits Oasis (again)
"It's with some sadness and great relief to tell you that I quit Oasis tonight. People will write and say what they like, but I simply could not go on working with Liam a day longer.Apologies to all the people who bought tickets for the shows in Paris, Konstanz, and Milan."
Well let us hope that he keeps his word this time, but as Pitchfork points out his statement does have an air of finality about it this time.
He did after all describe Liam not that long ago as "like a man with a fork in a world of soup!"
