Cup Of Brown Joy
For all my tea swilling pals out there (which includes my lovely wife), here's 'Cup of Brown Joy' by Brit Emcee Elemental. It might be the first and only rap dedicated to the love of tea. I can't get "When I say 'Earl Grey', you say 'Yes, Please' / When I say 'Assam', you say 'Lovely'" out of my head. [via - Ectoplasmosis]

Species Tulips
Inga is proud of her Species Tulips. This is how tulips looked before they were hybridized into the classic Dutch form.

Night Ranger Playing Frontier Days
It's not on the Frontier Days website yet, but according to Vintage Guitar Magazine, Night Ranger is playing Frontier Days on July 2nd.
What other bands of the past will emerge from the darkness to play Frontier Days this year? Like every year, I can't wait to find out.

Cat Playing With A Theramin
[via BoingBoing] After watching this video, I looked into how much a Theramin costs. Cat-Dancers are much cheaper.

The Excesses of Cat Life
Was it the catnip or the morning sunshine that pushed Ernie into unconscious bliss? He refused to answer.

Cross Country Drive
Via Kitsune Noir - Michael and Oliver Gondry condensed a cross-country trip (L.A. to N.Y.) in this video for the band Lacquer. In the daytime, the frame rate is one frame per second and one frame every ten seconds at night. Makes me long for a summer roadtrip - $4 gas be damned!

Very Very Very Very Very Sick...
Inga was sick all last week. I think I've caught some mutated alien hybrid version of the same bug this week or maybe it is Human Bird Flu...or Dengue Fever...
I'm feverish, achy and sliding back to bed...
