Satisfyingly Sunny
This lucky ducky passively promotes smiles in miles of rivers on four continents. Now its here for TT's yellow day!
*click for pages of pics of the places it's been
For action lovers - the Yellow Cube Machine:
And for people who just love being perplexed,
A demo of a (yellow!) non-Newtonian 'liquid':
Imagine a jr-high class getting their hands in this...
*One thing's bugging me - that guy at the end reminds me of an odd old cartoon character - can't quite place who he looks like.
eta:
Ah - he's a bit like 'Kilroy', or Alice the Goon (from Popeye).

Lady Gaga Garbage
Its Art. Its Junk. (its actually both)
Artist Jason Mecier uses the personal junk of celebrities and turns it into unique portraits. Over the past 10 years the stars themselves have sent their used belongings to him to create 3D collages.
Including: Heidi Fleiss' moldy slippers, Phyllis Diller's anti-itch cream, Kathy Najimy's Dexatrim, Ricki Lake's tampon (ew!), two of Tori Spelling's vibrators (double-ew!), and a letter Paris Hilton sent him from prison.
Kathy Griffin (in Clay Aiken CDs & Velveeta wrappers) Also: Pam Anderson, Bjork, Sharon Stone, Florence Henderson, RuPaul, Pink, the Go-Go’s, the B52's, etc... See more in the video:
Making 'PoP ArT Icons' out of pop culture debris?
Makes sense to me.
Hurry, his show at 'Ghetto Gloss' L.A. ends 3/23.

93 + 1929 = Sunday Breakfast
Clara, 93, cooks brunch from her Depression-era childhood, to celebrate ThemeThursday.
hint:
- Gruel ?.... 'No'
- Coffee ?... 'Yes'
"First thing we're going to make is sugar cookies"
('What?'...)
Not sure what I was expecting, but it wasn't that.
Had to try them, so I made a one-third batch:
1 large egg (lightly beaten)Verdict: 'Okay' - they did all disappear by 6pm.
1/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup flour
pinch of salt
Rolled out using more flour.
Then cut into turd-like shapes
- and put on ungreased pan.
350' F oven, for ~ 16 min
(would be better with vanilla +/ spices)
Had to lol, tho. Coffee & two kinds of sugar cookies.
Nutritionist's nightmare, but 'hey' Clara's still here!
warning - The longer you let them sit around however, the more they become Depression-era tooth-breakers.
so, 'Flapper Biscotti', anyone?
p.s.
notice (at 2:57) there's a donut bag on her counter!

Leprechaun Feet
They can walk up the front of a fridge?...
So those tiny colorful imps also have anti-gravity?
Paging Mr. Cameron: We has a plot for Avatar II.
*just enuf time to leave you three quick 'St. Pat' links:
(1) FAMILY FUN
In 2009 a mom put neon prints (pic above) thru her kitchen then surprised her kids w/ green food. Some comments she got, last one's a lol idea:
(2) RECIPE
From the Food Librarian, no less:
Her recipe? (click pic) Jello blended w/ ice cream.
No idea how it tastes, but it certainly looks... green.
(3) HISTORY:
How snakes left Ireland. (beware: not happily)
I said 'Ew', but laughed anyway. - Happy St. Paddys

Ashlee- did this one year at a daycare I worked at. It really freaked out the kids and they cried for a good half hour!
Mercedes- we set our shoes out and They leave us small goodies. Usually green. :) Also our room would have been disorganized by the leprechauns.
Bren Yule- spaghetti noodles with green food coloring! Green alfredo sauce, and Green Choc chip cookies with green sprinkles!
Yarni Gras!- put a green food coloring tablet between the faucet spout and washer ...turned on the kitchen sink, the water came out green.

A Bit Spotty
Will be working a lot
of overtime until 4/15.
So my posts are going to be
(as Cruella DeVille might say)
A bit spotty.
But at least I'm better off than this guy:
Just how far did it 'scoot', anyway?... ;-)

Llamas with Hats
`
Because pinafores would just look silly?
*A creative guy with some nice llamas.
But since Theme Thursday for today is 'HATS',
...we'll move on to two llamas,
both of whom have hats, but only one of whom is nice.
And as for the other?...
Well, this other llama is, um, 'not-so nice'.
As you'll see.
But at least he's wearing a hat.

Other SAbob's videos, incl. Llamas w/ Hats #1.

That Green Gentleman
I just liked the video (below), but this week's 'Green' theme inspired me to pay a bit more attention to the lyrics:
'That Green Gentleman'
Things are shaping up to be pretty odd.
Little deaths in musical beds.
So it seems I'm someone I've never met.
You will only hear these elegant crimes,
Fall on your ears from criminal dimes.
They spill unfound from a pretty mouth.Everybody gets there and everybody gets their,
and everybody gets their way.
Now I'm the only one to blame.
Things have changed for me, and thats okay.
I feel the same, I'm on my way, and I say.
Things have changed for me, and thats okay.
I want to go where everyone goes,
I want to know what everyone knows,
I want to go where everyone feels the same.
I never said I'd leave the city,
I never said I'd leave this town.
A falling out we won't tiptoe about.{chorus mash-up}
Things have changed for me.
Good fun - P!ATD's '80's style video:
Has he truly come to terms with how things stand?
...or is he just regretful?
...or resentful - but trying to hide it?
Or is the poor guy still 'green-eyed'?...
fyi:
also: a 'text' video, w/ full lyrics
