Random Rouge Friday: Picture time!

Glorious, I think I've got your number. Sometimes you don't need any words. Just enjoy the sparkles.













Big Easy Rider I'm fast learning that local TV here is a treasure. I'll get to the dance-catillion-type show with Cajun music in a later post. Meanwhile, after that program last night came LA Rider. I'm not joking when I say that although I am a pansy about the possibility of getting maimed, this biker magazine program made me want to ride. I think co-host TW Robinson here, with her combination of grace and bad-assedness, is now my favorite lady in the state of Louisiana. Many Baton Rouge bike-centric businesses advertise on the show, including a nearby bar that has an open mic comedy night I've been meaning to check out...I have a feeling it'll be quite different from the comedy I'm used to back in NYC.






Zoinks! Scariest dry cleaner evs, in the latest Abandoned Baton Rouge. Watch out for Old Man Devereaux!















Mesmerization station Blogger Play shows you a neverending parade of every photo currently being uploaded to Blogger, such as the vintage clip art above. (Except porno! I guess there's no more porn being uploaded to the interwebs.) So much for getting anything accomplished ever again. You can click to find out what blog and post name it's being uploaded to, and where. I even saw a crazy guy in a corn maze. (Not that I was watching it for 40 minutes or anything.)



Special request and dedication to KLSU I value the service you provide of bringing the indie rock hits to the Baton Rouge community. But please, I beg of you, more variety! I have heard "It's Business Time" by Flight of the Conchords at least 79 times in the past month. Not to mention the cover of "Common People" by William Shatner, maybe 25 times. I'm even sick of hearing the cover of "What a Fool Believes" that initially filled me with so much joy. The whole thing with novelty songs is that they are novel at first. How about something by these guys? I found them on Blogger Play and haven't heard them, but they look like they'd be awesome:






















RIP in the USA Finally, please pour out a little watery swill from a silver-and-blue can for old Harv.



SAD UPDATE: I was suspicious of the tombstone, so I did a little Googly-oogly, and found out Harv's memorial seems to be a fake. On the plus side, this means Harv is still alive and you can totally party with him at the Blue Oyster Cult show at the state fair.

SAD UPDATE 2: I just heard "Common People" and "Business Time" within a few songs of each other on KLSU, quite possibly because this post was seen by some young whippersnapper at the station. I'm done with that station. From now on, it's WFMU online all day baby! Where they've had DJs like Dave the Spazz for the past umpteen years, as opposed to Spazzy Dave here on KLSU.
