Photos from the Neverland Ranch auction A while ago, Michael Jackson was short of cash, and decided to auction off the contents of Neverland Ranch, his combined palace/fun park, down to the last vanity painting and statue. A guy named Paul Scheer went along with a camera, took photos of some of the more peculiar items and put them online. It's certainly a unique collection.

So you're in the mood for some Christmas music, but you're tired of all the old standards. Not to worry, the web has you covered courtesy of several vinyl sharing blogs. First off, there's
Check the Cool Wax, with the soundtrack to
Rankin/Bass's Night Before Christmas,
Pee-Wee's Christmas Special,
Yuletide Disco,
Western Christmas Songs & Exciting Christmas Stories featuring
Batman, Superman & Wonder Woman. Much, much more inside.

Pour Some Sugar On Me, as reinvisioned by Townsend, a boy band.
Some would say it's the worst thing they'd ever seen, but I'd hazard a guess that it may actually be the worst thing ever filmed. The song is enhanced with a rap section, and the video is enhanced with the addition of the jackass from Smashmouth, for some bizarre reason. NSFNSAVI (not safe for the non sight & vision impaired)

I have to travel the highways and byways of America by car and train a great deal, and its much more fun if you actually
see America on the way. Two of my favorite sites for finding offbeat attractions and tasty eats are
By The Way Magazine and
Roadside America.

Remembering Laci (sans taste) This link leads to a tribute song, in quicktime, to the late Laci Petersen. Sorry to bring things down to a tabloid-filter level, but the sheer hilarity of this song, as well as
this leads me to wonder whether these were done (tastelessly) in earnest, or (tastelessly) in mockery.
