This is fantastic! Watch Peter the elephant keeping time, and the other elephant shifting his/her hips to the beat. Never mind that Peter the elephant is a terrible piano player; the human wasn't perfect either.

That this video appears to have been made somewhere in middle suburbia makes it even more enjoyable. What would the angry middle-aged English teacher who lives across the street and guards the subdivision against incursions of abnormality have to say? Are the elephants breaching a local regulation against large animals playing music in the subdivision?

:D

... there goes the neighborhood.

I stumbled across this website: Views of the Solar System" by Damian Peach, an "amateur astro-photographer"

Although he is an amateur - his work is professional.
Even his "about" page is interesting

Lots of images and animations

I took these in 2005:

I have slides of that phenomenon from the mid 70's. Flew over it from Vegas back to Grand Canyon Airport post river trip. So I guess it's not real rare but it does look cool... unless of course you've traveled cross country in a station wagon with a sulking spouse, unruly rug rats, and a sick pet, to gaze into the depths.

Recent pics of New Wave stars from the 1980s

It's interesting.

Everyone should get a handjob. NSFW Language, Autostart video

:lol2:

Yes, it's real.

Those were awesome! Oh My God, look at Boy George!

That elephant is RCOKING!

I was thinking how useful it must be for Boy George: he can go out in drag and be instantly recognizable, receive all the perks of celebrity; yet when he wants to just be a normal person he can grow a few days' stubble and put on a t-shirt and no one will have a clue who he is. I bet all celebrities wish they had that.

pretty sure they don't all covet the ankle bracelet and orange jumpsuit, though...

Damn. The years have been kinder with some more than others. I'm going to guess it's heroin vs. clean living that has something to do it.
