Operation AXIOM
Happy Fathers' Day to one & all! I bought my pop a Thermos, because he spends a lot of time on the road pursuing his Quixotic political ambitions & drinks boatloads of coffee whilst crisscrossing those highways & byways. I'm not using the genericized name for a vacuum flask, it's the real McCoy, a genuine Thermos.
The centenary of the outbreak of the First World War is just over three years away & will be upon us in a flash. A look back at one horrifying aspect of the nightmare that was the Western Front: The Miners' War.
The Rebel Black Dot Songs of the Day
The Aquabats!, "Tarantula!" from The Return of The Aquabats! (Captain Thumbs-up)
Commentary: "Tarantula!" isn't just a song about a scientist fighting a giant, monstrous spider. It's a song about a father's dedication to his daughter. It's a song about fatherhood.
"Armed to the teeth, he ventured forth,
If he'd live or die he did not know!
Professor Jones! He did not know!
Professor Jones! He did not know!
Where was his daughter? Where did she go?
She's fallen to the beast of the webby hole!"
