If I had never dialed the police…she’d still be alive.  –  James Smith

This video (contributed by Furrygirl) was all the rage a couple of weeks ago; the woman was apparently a former member of the Lyndon Larouche cult, and I think she’s hilarious (and seasonal).  The links above it were provided by Phoenix Calida, Tim Cushing, Dave Krueger, Radley Balko, Walter Olson, and Jillian Keenan, in that order.

The camel did nothing wrong.  –  Louis Hamilton Jr.

This particular rubber-chicken-playing-Asian-dude-with-deadpan-stare is a lot more serious than the one who performed Toto’s “Africa”; the video was discovered by Walter Olson, and the links above it were provided by Franklin Harris (x2), a reader named George, Radley Balko, Election Babe, and Scott Greenfield, in that order.

The only way you gonna stop him is kill him.  –  “Lawman” Brindell Wilkins

As regular readers know, cute kid videos are not really my thing.  But this perfect example of little boy behavior, provided by Mike Siegel, was so hilarious I had to make an exception.  The links above it were supplied by Tim Cushing, Mike Chase, Jesse Walker, Franklin Harris, Furrygirl, and Phoenix Calida, in that order.

The time has come to reject the canard of marijuana emanating from nearly every vehicle subject to a traffic stop.  –  Judge April Newbauer

Just a few hours after my last Links column posted, we learned of the death of Ric Ocasek (formerly of The Cars); this was my favorite of their videos, and one of my favorites of their songs.  The links above it were provided by Tim Cushing, Jillian Keenan, Scott Greenfield, Dave Krueger, Popehat, and Tim Cushing again, in that order.

This is home,
always open, always there
waiting for me past any curfew.  –  Karen Head

Whenever I go out to Sunset, we try to spend at least one evening watching a movie stoned.  And we’ve found the best movies to watch stoned are those with a lot of music and simple plots.  Well, when I went out a couple of weeks ago this was our flick; it’s one of Grace’s favorites and if you have a good ear for musical style you may recognize the composer of the song in this trailer (who happens to be my favorite songwriter).  The links above it were provided by Clarissa, Kevin Wilson, Walter Olson, Jesse Walker, Popehat, and Radley Balko, in that order.

This was not a good idea.  –  Jamie Bisceglia

If you’re British and over 40, or an American of that age who loved Captain Kangaroo, you probably remember the adventures of Simon in the Land of Chalk Drawings.  I recently remembered them and discovered this YouTube channel, and if you’ve never seen them before I think you’ll enjoy them.  And if you’re American and remember them too, you may remember that the song was slightly different when they aired here.  The links above the video are from Emma Evans, Skye, Dave Krueger, Mike Siegel (x2), and Tim Cushing, in that order.

You’re gonna kill me!  –  Tony Timpa

A couple of months ago I featured Herb Alpert’s performance of “Spanish Flea”, and here’s an early video (1966) for “A Taste of Honey”.  The links above it were provided by Jesse Walker, Radley Balko, Patrick Nonwhite, Emma Evans, Zuri Davis, Popehat, and Radley Balko again, in that order.
