Surf W/ Evil Babies Do!

 WAS PATTON MURDERED?, 6 THINGS BABIES DO THAT ARE EVIL, DUSTY SPRINGFIELD FOREVER, HISTORY OF RECORDED MUSIC IN CHICAGO, THE WILDEST ARCHIE COMIC EVER, DEVO ON TV AND RADIO!
 
 Bill Murray says he'll be a ghost in the new GHOSTBUSTERS film, and .....
 
6 things that babies do that are evil!
 
The history of recorded music in Chicago during the 20th century was broad and deep, traversing sonic areas both familiar and unknown. The earliest crude recordings on Edison cylinders date back to the turn of the century and carry on through the rise of 78s, 45s and LPs cut at major studios like Universal Recording Co., RCA, and Chess by many artists who would become musical icons and household names. But there was no shortage of smaller studios, like P.S. & Paragon, that had great recording equipment and incredible engineers like Malcolm Chisolm and Paul Serrano behind the consoles for ambitious, and lesser known but equally as talented musicians to lay down tracks at well into the '70s and beyond

The most amazing ARCHIE story ever!
Here's a question. Did we ACTUALLY READ that Archie story about the time Archie and Betty were naked together in a hotel room, and Mr. Cooper got all pissed off and was gonna force them to get married? Did we REALLY READ THAT STORY?
Yes we did. For once your memory isn't cheating!

Surf W/ Nora Foss Al-Jabri

Today a very special theme post. Did you ever wonder what it was like to see Billie Holiday when she was a kid singing at bars and bordellos for pennies? Or to be in the audience for The Gumm Sisters when 8 year old Judy Garland belted out a numer? And to know, to just know they were only going to get even better as singers as the years passed? Today, you have the chance I believe, to discover a talent that I think will become a huge international talent. This is no Disney factory system singer, this could be the beginning of something far beyond what we know today. Her name is Nora Foss Al -Jabri.

She is 14. Here is her website.

http://norafromnorway.yolasite.com/

Here she is at 11 singing Leonard Cohen's HALLELUJAH. On a talent show. Notice the stunned silence at the end.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=45Zb0SauQIc

At 13. I don't know what to say.....

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CR2eqrXbn1M&feature=related

Here she is on Oprah. OVER THE RAINBOW.

Here she is singing in her own language, MARLENE.

Surf W/SAVED BY THE BELL: WOW!

THE REAL STATE OF THE NATION!; 11 WILD REVELATIONS IN SAVED BY THE BELL TELL ALL!
 
 
Hillary Clinton doesn't think she will serve a second term with the State Department. Gee, I wonder what job she would want?
 
Presidential assassinations of U.S. citizens: Buried in Priest's article is her revelation that American citizens are now being placed on a secret "hit list" of people whom the President has personally authorized to be killed:
 
 President Barack Obama told Americans the bipartisan deficit commission he will appoint won't just be "one of those Washington gimmicks." Left unspoken in that assurance was the fact that the commission won't have any teeth. 
 
CIA operative who famously claimed that waterboarding was effective against al Qaeda now admits he made the whole thing up, apparently without any sort of enhanced interrogation techniques
 
During a subsequent appearance with Rachel Maddow on Wednesday night, Chris Matthews clarified his remark that he "forgot [Obama] was black tonight for an hour."
 
Continuing a month of skeptical victories, the UK's General Medical Council has found that Andrew Wakefield — the founder of the modern antivaccination movement — acted "dishonestly and irresponsibly" when doing the research that led him to conclude that vaccinations were linked with autism.
 
 Now that Chicago and Illinois are on the verge of collapse, and the men who put us in this position are now in the White House, I hope you guys know what you're doing.
 

"I am weary of the President's unspoken premise that only government--indeed, only the federal government--can accomplish good in our society.

"President Obama seems to be totally blind to the concept that government can cause problems rather than solve them. His speech was filled with 'More': more spending, more programs, more bailouts, more regulations.

http://www.lp.org/news/press-releases/libertarians-respond-to-state-of-the-union-address

While the left was quick to accuse Gov. McDonnell of selecting the people behind him during GOP response for their 'diversity,' it turns out they're his Cabinet !

 http://rightwingnews.com/2010/01/president-obamas-sotu/

Poll shows Scott Brown tied with Obama in a 2012 presidential contest. An unknown state legislator with no experience or accomplishments who spends a couple years in the Senate before running for president? Ridiculous, couldn't happen

 Scott Brown, left, and President Obama.

In 2009 the Coney Island Museum invited Zoe Beloff to create an exhibition to celebrate the centennial of Sigmund Freud's visit to Coney Island.
She titled the show 'Dreamland: The Coney Island Amateur Psychoanalytic Society and its Circle 1926-1972.' The Society might be considered something of an urban myth. They were mostly working people from a variety of cultural backgrounds. Beloff describes them as 'visionaries, who, undeterred by lack of finances or professional training, decided to explore their inner life, to share their dreams with each other and in doing so attempted to free the psyche from the constraints of class and of cultural and sexual mores of their time.' Featured on Ubu are the ten films from this series

Think the TONIGHT SHOW disaster was bad? There has actually been worse.
The biggest late night talk show calamity in history was one that, after all the gouged out eyeballs were counted, left the most casualties. It was the most expensive late night talk show ever made and certainly the longest. It starred comedy's most polarizing figure and could only sustain itself three months. Time Magazine, one month into the program's run, delivered this review: ABC has given him two full hours the show is loaded with intramural cracks, tedium, desperate looking guests reaching for laughs, mechanical dolls that wave their arms and drop their pants, additional tedium, and the apparent illusion that several million people want to watch 120 minutes of the scriptless life of a semi-educated, egocentric boor.Ladies and gentlemen, The Jerry Lewis Show.
