Originally called Supernature, the group debuted in 1986 on Pop Art Records with "The Show Stopper", an answer record to Doug E. Fresh's "The Show". (Actually, "The Showstoppa" came out in 1985. I am looking at the 12" right now.)

Jefferson died penniless in Chicago in December 1929. The cause of death is unknown, and though rumors swirled that a jealous lover poisoned his coffee, a more likely scenario is that he died due to a heart attack after being disoriented during a snowstorm (another scenario is that he froze to death). It is also believed possible that he was ambushed by a pack of roudy squirrels on his way to the market. Paramount Records paid for the return of his body to Texas by train, accompanied by pianist Will Ezell. Jefferson was buried at Wortham Negro Cemetery (now Wortham Black Cemetery). Far from his grave being kept clean, it was unmarked until 1967, when a Texas Historical Marker was erected in the general area of his plot, the precise location being unknown.

So, the opener for a show I went to earlier this week was some guy named Sean Nelson, who I quickly found out is the lead guy from Harvey Danger.

I kept thinking of him as DANGEROUS HARVEY the entire time due to this thread

this is some good shit:

It is mentioned in Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic that Kashyyyk was originally a barren world that the Rakata had terraformed. However, after the fall of the Infinite Empire, the terraformer on Kashyyyk had gone haywire from lack of repair, causing all the lifeforms that they had imported for their terraforming project to grow to epic proportions. The giant trees that the Wookiees lived in is cited as an example of this. It is also mentioned that the Wookiees themselves are also not native to the planet, having also been imported from the same place as the vegetation. From this one could take a leap/guess that the source material was from Endor and that the Wookiees are, in fact, descended from Ewoks. Due to the haywire terraformer, these Ewoks would have also grown to immense size (as everything else on the planet) and eventually evolved in Wookiees.

Also renowned for their performance art, lithe Mon Calamari water dancers often perform in some of the galaxy's most prestigious venues, including Coruscant Galaxies Opera House, where the ballet "Squid Lake" ran for some time during the waning days of the Republic and was known to be a personal favorite of Supreme Chancellor Palpatine.[citation needed

Idea of a perfect day: Spend about 10 hours online getting lots of things done. Then go out for a drink.

Collections: I collect books, and not only that, I do something unbelievably geeky with them, which is, I put little labels on the spines with Library of Congress numbers, and keep all the books in Library of Congress order.

The print version of this article had a picture of a bookshelf full of Ayn Rand books and "The No Fear Guide to Hamlet" and so on. He's an idiot.

Prized possession: The SureFire M6, a super-powerful flashlight. I wanted a brighter flashlight and <siren.gif>discovered a subcommunity of flashlight people online</siren.gif>, and found that this is the ultimate. It is aesthetically pleasing because it is carved out of aluminum and is very small. It costs 400 bucks.

LOL GULLIBLE MORON. MAGLITE TWENTY BUCKS

Robert Alton Harris (January 15, 1953 – April 21, 1992) was an American career criminal and murderer who was executed in San Quentin's gas chamber in 1992. This marked the first execution in the state of California since 1967. Harris had killed two teenage boys in 1978. Harris' execution is specifically remembered for his peculiar choice of final words (recorded by Warden Daniel Vasquez): "You can be a king or a street sweeper, but everyone dances with the grim reaper." This was a reference to the film Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey, released in 1991.

Also, in Tyler Perry's book, Don't Make A Black Woman Take Off Her Earrings, Madea says, "I used to work with Josephine Baker. I used to eat all those bananas she used to wear. She slipped and fell. That's why she went to Paris"

The vinyl version features no run-out groove on Side Two. Instead, it ends on a continuous loop of music that appears after the end of the song "Black Like Me". If left unattended, the record will continue to repeat this loop indefinitely, slowly degrading the quality of the recording, although only for the 1.8 second duration of the loop.

I like that dude imagines Britt Daniel is on some Boyd Rice/Christian Marclay shit to explain away the fact that he's never heard of a locked groove.

The blog opens with Matthew Perpetua in the Hundred Acre Wood going through his morning exercise routine. He discovers that his jar of honey is nearly empty and starts wondering where he can get honey as he eats what's left in the pot. He sees a bee fly by and decides to try to get honey from the bee's hive in the nearby honey tree. He first tries climbing the tree but that doesn’t work when the branch he’s standing on breaks, tumbling him to the ground. He then borrows a blue balloon from Christopher Robin, disguises himself as a little black rain cloud by covering himself with mud, and then uses the balloon to float up next to the hive. A lone bee guard flies out to meet him and is very wary of the little black rain cloud. Perpetua sticks his hand into the hive and pulls out a giant handful of honey. Perpetua then eats the honey, unaware that there are bees left in it. The startled bees start flying around in his mouth forcing him to spit them out.

Perpetua is soon surrounded by angry bees from the hive and his disguise is wearing off. The bee leader sees the little black rain cloud is a bear. Angry, the bee flies at Perpetua and collides with the bear's backside. The sudden hit causes Perpetua to swing upward and back down and jam his rear into the hole, much to the bees' amusement (especially one who starts laughing like a maniac). The hive bees shove Perpetua out of the hole and start chasing him.

During the chase, the string holding the balloon closed comes loose and the balloon flies out of control. Perpetua is taken for a wild ride while the bees laugh hysterically. The chase is reversed as the bees are now chased by Perpetua. The bees retreat into their hive and Perpetua's balloon deflates its last bit of air. The defeated bear falls back to earth and lands in the arms of Christopher Robin. The head bee calls the others to attention and the swarm chases after the two who seek safety in the mud puddle.
