    Svengoolie Show Movie: “Tarantula”

    I watched the Svengoolie show movie “Tarantula” last night, although I fell asleep for what turns out to have been about 20 minutes or so during the second half hour of this 1955 film about radioactive nutrient producing a giant tarantula. I had to catch up on what I missed on the Internet Archive. Don’t…

  • My Balls Glow in the Dark!

    My Balls Glow in the Dark!

    Here’s another video on head stall juggling, this time using glow in the dark juggling balls. They’re heavier and I drop more often. On the other hand, when one hit the glass top coffee table, it didn’t leave a scratch! It did make a heck of a racket, though. I did switch off between left…

  • Head Stall Boogie!

    Head Stall Boogie!

    Remember that off the head juggle I was trying to learn way back over two years ago? The other name for it is the head stall and I could not get the hang of it. I watched video after video and the performers who could do it all did it the same way—which I could…

    Svengoolie Show Movie: “The Bad Seed”

    I watched the Svengoolie show movie, “The Baddest Seed on the Planet” yesterday on the Internet Archive because I wanted to see the Iowa Hawkeye vs UMass football game last night. Hey, the Iowa Hawkeyes and the Iowa State Cyclones both won yesterday! Actually, I thought “The Bad Seed” was a pretty good movie, just…

  • Big Mo Pod Show: “Planting Seeds”

    Big Mo Pod Show: “Planting Seeds”

    The Big Mo Pod Show title is about planting seeds in a metaphorical way. One of the seeds Big Mo sows is his comedy bit on MayRee’s hand-battered catfish. It’s just one of his hilarious faux sponsor routines that he frequently tweaks, and the subtle changes are difficult to catch if you don’t listen to…

There’s another crisis. The Iowa Hawkeye vs UMass college football game comes on at 6:40 p.m. tomorrow evening. That…

  • The Ups and Downs of Cribbage Solitaire

    The Ups and Downs of Cribbage Solitaire

    I made this YouTube video of a full six deal game of cribbage solitaire—and missed a 3-card run which would have won the game! What the heck, I probably made other mistakes too that others will notice. The rules: Cribbage solitaire has six hands and six cribs and you peg your six hands. Start by…
