how to blow up a frozen lake

Start with ten tons of pure sodium…

start your week off right: with insanity

Have some of mine:

if that doesn’t meet your “madness baseline”, try this:
Sorority Babes in the Slimeball Bowl-O-Rama.

Still up for more? Here. That aught to do it.
Don’t say I ain’t never done nuthin’ for ya.

hymns of the 49th parallel: Simple and Love is Everything by kd lang

Hymns of the 49th Parallel is possibly the most perfect album Canada has ever produced, and this two-song promotional video may just be beautiful enough to do it justice. I’ve followed kd lang since she was a two-bit Edith Prickley impersonator bopping around on Tommy Hunter‘s show [originally wrote “bopping around on Tommy Hunter” but realized that, to non-Canadians, this would give entirely the wrong impression!] and her voice has just gotten better over time. This lovely black and white video brings these two lovely and contemplative songs to life in a uniquely Canadian way. I hope you like them (if you can’t hear them, go somewhere you can; don’t just sit there!).

an introduction to crazy Japanese horror movies

So, how strange is this film? Here’s a pull quote from the review:

Life’s not all about singing and being peed on by strange monsters”

Stole this from Japanprobe, of course; it originally comes from The Hopeless Romantic and His Adventures in Japan, a longwinded or at least longtitled blog if ever there was one. Said H.Roma is all excited because not only has he done the following, and perfect, review of the travesty which is A Journey to the Drifting Classroom schlockfest, but he’s also scored an interview with one of the child actors who made such an unforgettable impression in those tightly choreographed routines and superfly Eighties duds. Alas, not the one who tries to fuck his own mom. Not the one with the leopard-print bomber jacket who gets the nobody puts Baby in the corner moment. It’s the black kid with the racist piggy bank! How exciting is that?!?!?!?!

Now pay close attention, children; there will be a test next period.
