Pray, did they have turntables back then? Me thinks not!

I'm impressed with the state of the art in prosthetic limbs in Renaissance times.

I'm disappointed. I thought this was going to be about actual curtsying. I came here looking forward to seeing if the Texas Dip made the cut. :(

I was all set to make a lazy snark about this and then I actually watched it and realised it was clever and awesome on many levels, and verily I felt like a knave, and I was constrained to temper my uncomely spleen.

I've got two round tables and a megaphone.

Was that filmed in Portland? I thought I recognized some of the locations.

This is fairly amazing; I had the same reaction as ThePinkSuperhero. Thank you.

HOLY SHIT!
He made a video!
I just started listening to him from Blockheads blog (several more tracks here )


I've been trying to get everyone to listen to him. Also see Party Fun Action Committee.

I'm a big hip-hop fan, and normally hate novelty rap because its so terrible, but this is the opposite. I don't think a bunch of LARPers could pull this off. Jer is a good producer and has some funny stuff behind him. Glad to see more of it, and I hope this means we will finally be getting a full-length album.
