David Byrne + Brian Eno - Together again

Here is a link to the website for the upcoming album + tour of these two legendary musicians.
Be sure to sign up for a FREE download of one of their songs - Aug. 4th
Brian Eno and I recently finished our first collaboration in about 30 years. For the most part, Brian did the music and I wrote some tunes, words and sang. It's familiar but completely new as well. We're pretty excited. In August the music will be available via this Web site, free for streaming and it will also be available for purchase as both a download and in physical formats. One of the songs will be available free of charge.

Don't ... Stop ... The Process

Imagine a brave, new world where Stop signs haven't been invented yet, then the 'powers that be' decide they need something to stop car accidents at intersections ...

Laugh like it's your last!


I am not a big fan of the "Andy Capp" School of humour where people make jokes about how miserable life with their spouse is, BuT there is some funny stuff here!

Twisted + Frozen Cat

This cat is rehearsing for its contortion act in Circle du Soleil - either that or the cat's ass transplant was a miserable failure!

Guns don't shoot people ...

The only thing more entertaining than this practical joke would be seeing what happens after the woman gets the gun again!

More On Aliens by Moonwalker

Here is another interview with astronaut Dr. Ed Mitchell who has confirmed that aliens do exist and have come to Earth:

Apollo Astronaut Chats About UFO, Alien Belief

Edgar Mitchell, an Apollo 14 astronaut and moonwalker, says his belief in UFOs and aliens being real is nothing new -- contrary to what tabloid reports might imply.

He's been speaking out ever since, most recently on a radio talk show that tripped off an unexpected wave of media attention. In a telephone interview with Irene Klotz, Mitchell sets the record straight -- as he sees it.

A Brain Hacker (not a horror film!)

Follow the link to this page, then scroll down and watch the video (available in full-screen format by clicking on the bottom-right corner of the video). THEN, let me know how he does it!

As Arthur C. Clarke told us, "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." So think of Keith Barry as a technologist, an elite software engineer of the human brain. Witty and direct, he celebrates human cleverness even while he's hacking it.

Astronaut Says Aliens Are Real

This story was broadcast around the internet a few weeks back. Be sure to listen to the recordings at the bottom of the webpage then judge for yourself whether Dr. Mitchell is telling the truth!

Aliens are real and have made contact with us several times according to Apollo 14 astronaut Dr Edgar Mitchell....

Dr Ed Mitchell, was the 6th man to land on the moon. He came on air with Nick Margerrison and told us that UFOs definatly exist, he has been in on it all, and that they are in contact with our government. He even made Nick change his opinions on all the UFO/Conspiracy stuff COMPLETELY...no mean feat.

Save Honey Bees

Here is a fun video of an unusual crew of B-Boys. They are performing in support of initiatives to save honey bees from the current drastic, and mysterious, decline:



Here is the HaagenDaas website on the subject - it is great for teaching school-age children about bees. Under the menu item 'How you can help' there is a PDF to download that could be used in a school curriculum.

http://helpthehoneybees.com/

"It is a fact of nature: When a honey bee returns to the hive after finding a good source of nectar, it will perform a unique dance for its hive mates, detailing the distance, quality and quantity of the new food supply."

"Sadly, honey bees are mysteriously vanishing in staggering numbers - a crisis known as Colony Collapse disorder - which is alarming considering honey bees are responsible for pollinating one-third of our natural food supply."
