Overnight Open Thread 7-25-2012
— Gabriel Malor

Hi there. Yes, you. Hi. Oh, you're looking to kill time on the internet this fine evening? I can help you with that. Come right in. I've tucked a bunch of videos from my favorite musical YouTubers under the fold. Maybe you'll find one you like. If not, you could always tell me about it in the comments.

The absolute gold standard in musician YouTubers is Alex Goot. Here he is, along with Tiffany Alvord and Luke Conard, covering Fun.'s recent hit "We Are Young."

Goot's done quite a few music videos over the past few years, including some good originals. I particularly like his cover of Adele's "Someone Like You" (also with Conard and Chad Sugg) and his new cover of Owl City and Carly Rae Jepsen's "Good Time."

If pop isn't to your taste, how about this killer rendition of "House of the Rising Son" by Jono with Tyler Ward:

Ward has managed to turn his epic YouTube addiction into a steady career helping young artists online. His collaboration with the brothers of Boyce Avenue will give you chills. Or, if country is more your speed, his version of "Dirt Road Anthem" is better than the original.

Mashups and medleys are big on YouTube. Here's Victoria Justice and Max Schneider's medley of Bruno Mars songs, directed by another career YouTuber, Kurt Schneider:

Woman's got moves. Victoria and Max just did another medley of Maroon 5 songs. The video that first got me watching all these people was an Adele medley by Goot, Justin Robinette and Michael Henry. Also worth a shot: this Sam Tsui mashup of "Love The Way You Lie", "Dynamite", and "Teenage Dream."

Long-distance collaborations are also pretty common. Like, for example, this version of "For Good" from Wicked by Sam Tsui and a eunuch in a toupee.

Another long-distance collaboration that came together was Alex G's acoustic cover of Nicki Minaj's "Starships."

Sometimes you can practically see the learning curve for these types of independent videos. Here's an early effort from Justin Robinette and Michael Henry, a heart-rending cover of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah."

A similar video before Goot's videos got so professional-looking is his version of Katy Perry's "California Gurls."

Last one (in order not to make page loading times completely unendurable), try this cover of "Pay Phone" from the delightful Megan Nicole and Dave Days:

Finally, here are worthy originals from some of these people:

Alex Goot - "Breathless"
Chester See - "God Damn You're Beautiful"
Luke Conard and Landon Austin - "Superhero"

Folks dubious about supporting big label music might keep an eye on these musical YouTubers. I hope you found some music you liked and otherwise killed some time. Sleep tight!

32 True story just now.


Downloading patch for FFXIV at the moment, talking with some friends.  We ended up discussing political figures, and I said to my friends "Hey, I forgot his name at the moment... the one with a face like a rat.  He's from California, I think I burned his name out of my head."


No one knew who it was offhand, so I Bing searched "US representative with a face like a rat."  No dice.


Binged "ugly US representatives", and.... Henry Waxman's website was the second hit.

99 So I just had my in-laws, anarchists and commies, taken to the airport after a visit. Niece is going to aforementioned "commie" camp for "red-diaper" babies in MA called Camp Kinderland. Aunt-in-law is going to Anarchist Camp in Ithica NY to learn Spanish. Apparently anarchist camps are very big on spanish speakers for some reason. And they are all enthused about Anthony Weiner running again because he has promised to get cozy with the teacher's union in NYC. They keep trying to talk to my teenagers about college. My oldest, 16, said he was looking for something that a would result in a job at the end of his studies. They laughed and siad not to worry about a job. FML. Save me.

105 83 I love this kind of shit. I used to be a musician, and I know very well that there are musicians everywhere who are far more talented than the people on major labels.

I'm not talking about myself: I'm talking about some people I used to play with.

******

The truth is, great musicians are a dime a dozen.

REALLY great musicians, the ones who earn the Big Bucks, not so much.

100 years ago, how many young kids owned or had access to ANY musical instruments?  Very few.

Today?  Every would-be Hendircks and his roadie.

I doubt if I could even do it on this phone but if a moron would care to take a couple minutes to go to you tube and put - True North road to the country stampede - in the search box it will come up.

177 Clemenza @ 138: OK, off the music shit, onto the gun shit. I think the biggest bang for the buck for home defense is a 12 ga pump shotgun. I happen to have a Mossberg 500, but I don't argue with people who prefer the Remington 870. They're both good guns. The Mossberg is cheaper, but the 870 is more refined. If some bastard just kicked in your door and you have to defend yourself, refined means precisely not jack shit. You can buy a Mossberg, which will never fail, and $100 plus in ammunition for what an 870 costs. Count me in the Mossberg camp. As to your point about rifles, you're right. There are very high-quality bolt-action rifles, most available from East European manufacturers, at very low cost. If money were no object, I'd get a Colt Arms AR-15 and 10K rounds of .223 today. I don't have to do that to own a good rifle.

Big ups for you for not pulling out the ridiculous "you don't have to aim" and "the sound of the action will send them running" claims.  For the moe-rons not in the know, shotguns are not preferred for their spread.  Rather, they are effective because they can deliver a devastating payload on the target *you are aiming at* at a level that pistols and rifles cannot, all things equal.

How long until other cities and even states join Boston and Chicago? And with a leftwing SC, I would not presume that the courts will put a stop to it.

OTOH, why aren't southern mayors discussing, for example, whether or not anti-2nd amendment businesses are welcome in their towns? Who wants people who enable crime local?

and yet it works in reverse...by the time you have a 91/30 or a Finn M39 or a 6.5 Swede (or best of all a K98...someday, I will own one) you're already a gunny.  Nobody starts with milsurp stuff.  If I were in the market for my "one" rifle, I'd probably pick up the Ruger Gunsite Scout and put a long eye-relief 4x on it.  Col. Jeff knew what he was talking about.  Luckily we don't have to own just one.

Amen.  I'm just tired of seeing outright falsehoods presented as advice.  At 30', an open cylinder will only pattern at about 4" out of a 20" barrel...and if the bad guy hears you rack the action, that's a mistake.  Don't point a gun at somebody unless you truly intend to pull the trigger if necessary.  The last sound they should hear is the safety clicking off.  If you intend to scare somebody with a gun, don't point it at them, and please keep your finger off the trigger.

*note* the "you" is an "all of you", not a response to the OP.  Be safe, morons.

Because I live in commie Cal I have a mini 14. It is not subject to the "assault rifle" regulations. They are not as in-accurate as people say, especially the new ones and you can shoot them until the barrel melts with no problems.

I have a P94 Ruger 9 MM with 15 rd pre ban mags.

I have a Remington 700 in .30-06 with a leupold scope.

I also own an 870 pump.

These are my plain vanilla guns. All very reliable and durable with readily available ammo.

I own the mini in 5.56 and the Ruger in 9 MM because they are standard military rounds. When the military changes their ammo I will buy reliable guns chambered in the same thing. I hope that it never comes to it but if the SHTF I want to be able to harvest ammo of of bodies.  

I have lots of other guns that are more recreational

At a gun show in the late 80's was a vendor selling steel penetrator rounds in 30-06. I remember a couple of ATF guys intimidating the guy telling him that selling 'armour piercing' was illegal.....yeah. right.

 

That day i bought a Garand and 500 rounds of the penetrators. I later sold the gun so i could go fetch my Filipina bride. I kept the ammo. Dad gave me a model 700 Remington in ought six caliber, so, life is good.

I made a recommendation to folks to consider a Mossberg 500 as a the basis of their home-defense arsenal. After I did that, I had serious second thoughts. People who didn't grow up with shotguns might have all kinds of misperceptions about shotguns because of the media. Shotguns are REAL GUNS. They are FUCKING DEADLY weapons. Just like any other guns, you must have training to safely and effectively use a shotgun. I think the best training for using a shotgun is to treat them just like rifles. I so hope anyone buying a first gun will get proper training.

That's a good point.

I never really thought of shotguns as anyhting different, because I shot them when I was just a kid.

But....my sister just got a Mossberg 20 guage for home defense and asked me to show her how to shoot it.

She was really intimidated, and I don't know why. I even showed her that I could fire it one-handed, and the recoil was managable, but it didn't really work too well.

She'll figure it out eventually, but I expected it to be trivial, and it wasn't!

I see 14" inch barrels are available for the Remington and Mossberg, thats not exactly a duck hunting set up is it? I would expect the recoil to be pretty nasty.

361 ia RCP: “And I confess the progress didn’t come quickly, and it did not come easily,” President Obama said about his time as a community organizer in Chicago. “Sometimes it didn’t come at all. There were times where I thought about giving up and moving on. But what kept me going day in and day out was the same thing that has sustained the Urban League all these years. The same thing that sustains all of you. And that is the belief that in America, change is always possible. That our union may not be perfect, but it is perfectible.” “That we can strive over time, through effort and sweat and blood and tears until it is the place we imagine. It may come in fits and starts, at a pace that can be slow and frustrating, but if we are willing to push through all the doubt and the cynicism and the weariness, then yes, we can form that more perfect union,” Obama said.

Evening y'all.

 

Was away from computer all day.....doing shit out in the 103 degree heat.

The hubby and I were finishing up our last erand together....and it was about dinner time.

So, I said:

"Honey, I'm melted. It's too hot to cook....and I have been craving some Chick-Fil-A chicken the last few days."

Him:

"That sounds good. Works for me."

 

So we pull into the Chick-Fil-A....and there is a line of cars for the drive-thru, all the way around the building and out into the street.

Every parking space is filled.

The overflow is filling up the parking lot of neighboring businesses.

 

Hubby says:

"Woah. What the fuck is going on...are they giving it away today?"

Me:

"I guess it's because of all the stuff in news about them."

Him:

"What stuff?"

So I filled him in....my hubby, bless him, has a low tolerance for the general bullshit in the news these days, so he doesn't really keep up....for blood pressure reasons.

 

After hearing about the current bru-ha-ha.....He says:

"Well shit. I suddenly have an intense craving for some Chick-Fil-A, too, honey. .....I was going to say, fuck this, lets go somewhere else. ....But hell no. I don't mind sitting here and waiting in line."

  

It was delicious. ....And the waffle fries were hot and crispy....as were my chicken strips.

 

So I finally check in here....for the first time today....and there's a thread about Chick-Fil-A.

Oh well, at least Gabe said it was "wrong" to persecute someone for their beliefs. 

 

Something tells me that Chick-Fil-A is going to do just fine, though.

They may have to go to being open 24/7 though.

Oh, great, now I am all fired up.  This fuckin' office we're in, they use paper towels the likes of which I have not seen since I last used a gas station restroom (decades) and the toilet paper?  don't' even get me started.  The problem is, ever time I wash  my hands, I automatically roll off 3 paper towels, because they are such utter crap.  And the toilet paper, you need about 9 yards of it to do the same job 6 inches of the good, cushy kind could accomplish.  Green = stoopid.  I'm about to start talkin' like a pirate and the cats don't really get that.  sigh

Mero came to visit!!!!  I had to work tho so he got to meet the horses, one of my clients (also one of my best friends) and Grim! It was very cool that Merovign and Grimmy got along and like a LOT of the same thing so they had plenty to talk about, and the cats LOVED him, especially my little hairless one. She crawled onto his shoulder and just camped out.

Currently the Famous Ellie is in trouble. Day after Mero left town she had a panic attack working with the new trainer and bolted through a fence and caused a big wreak. This also caused the trainer to be evicted for tearing the place down. *SIGH*  her first words to me were "Now i know why the former owners wanted to put her down."

But it was kinda awesome to have a moron hang with grim while i worked horses. Also i saw last night he said some rather kind things about my stallion and the nice appearance of my hooved quadropeds. (im still blushing)

My kitty used to hang back and lurk until I opened the door so she could rush at the door and escape to the outside.  I lived in an apartment house with a screened-in porch so she usually didn't get outside, but if one of the apartments on my level had an open door she'd run inside their apartment.  Silly cat.  I tried to keep her in the apartment because I'd had her front claws taken.

some jerk let my hairless kitty out once. i found her crouched behind my trashcans, shivering. I freaked out. She would die if left out longer than a couple hours. well longer than 10 minutes where i am. Dogs, cars, owls, feral cats and UV rays as well as disease and god knows what else. Just the thought is freakey. her little fuzzly brother would likely be in as much trouble but probably wouldnt have the sense to hide. My feral cats are wise thought and after a certain hour they hole up in the hay barn, and they DONT COME OUT. My barncat is big and badass and could give a rip. She just does whatever.

428 436 hey gushka that sounds cool that Mero came to visit

and was there any doubt that you take good care of your horses? of course he said nice things about them!

Posted by: chemjeff at July 26, 2012 12:38 AM (d/5qf)



he said they looked like "movie horses" (gushie preens) he didnt have to say that. And it made me feel nice that he thinks they are so pretty. Some people are not so kind about that stallion with the missing eye.


Though i keep laughing at how grossed out people are when i stick the hose in That horse's eyesocket, im really proud of how easy he is to handle despite being half blind. Seriously, its so much grosser if its not clean, and even the horse acts like it feels really nice when i do it.


But im his mommy so of course i think hes pretty. it feels awesome when other people look beyond the empty eye and see it too.

429 Go to the market and get yourself a box of 20 Mule Team Borax. Get a broom. Fling it all over the damn house, then scrub it in with the broom, carpets, cracks, furniture, everywhere. It will smite your fleas in short order. Non-chemically, it's got little sharpness to it and it abrades their exo-skeletons and they can't live. I've done it, several times, and it works. {{{{{}}}}}

You have to wait a couple of hours (or a day, I forget), then vacuum it all up really well.  But, I've done it with asthma-kitteh in the house and she was fine with it.  The flea-chemicals would have killed her.  You might want to try it.  Lock the little darlin's in the bathroom for a bit, they really shouldn't breathe it.  Plus, it's cheaper than dirt and, don't forget, RR was the 20 Mule Team dude back in the day.

440 There used to be flea traps made by Raid, i think, that worked really well. They were just a little plastic box with a lid that flipped open, there was a green light on the lid and underneath was just some sticky flypaper type stuff. The fleas were attracted to the light and jumped to it getting stuck on the sticky fly paper. You'd plug that thing in and within 24 hours your flea problem was gone, don't know if they actually make them anymore but there's apparently some still for sale on the innertubes - http://tinyurl.com/cpxklwj

452 Doggie household here, but I once did the borax thing to get rid of fleas.  It was long ago, but IIRC the adult fleas died quickly - they were gone, then there can be a secondary hatch a few weeks later.  Something about certain parts of the life cycle being more susceptible to the borax crystals.  Once that batch died off (again quickly) there were no more fleas.

454 I saw one suggestion for a homemade flea trap. Put a plate of soapy water next to a small light.

The fleas are attracted to the light and will drown in the bowl of water, the soap keeps them from skimming on top and teh kittehs won't drink it

455 Remember that Lakoff guy that wrote the little blue book for Democrats that got torn to pieces by Zombie? That Lakoff is the source of something else, according to Legal Insurrection:
"Nobody makes a dollar in this country in business without using the common wealthÂ…. The idea that thereÂ’s a self-made man, thatÂ’s thereÂ’s a self-made millionaire is false, it is absolutely false, and that is the thing that Obama missedÂ…. Without this you donÂ’t have those roads, you donÂ’t have that internet, you donÂ’t have the banking system, etc."
That's right, he came up with the "you didn't built it" line that Elizabeth Warren and President Obama are using, almost word for word.

Maverick 88 shotgun (budget Mossberg) and a Marlin model 795. Yep, a .22 rifle. No gun collection is complete without a good old semi-auto .22 rifle (fer skwerls and such).


Once you have those two, you can take your leftover cash and either invest in a Saiga .223 and a Tapco catalog or you can start buying an AR-15 one piece at a time to make your Evil Black Rifle.


Also...Mosin Nagant. Bolt action, large caliber, cheap ammo.

The whole argument falls apart when one realizes the 'common wealth' only has value in proportion to individuals who bring about economic activity and innovation.

And how many cases are they of a government at any level building a stretch of road past undeveloped land in the belief that entrepreneurs would take up nesting there when seasonal migration brought them around again. Maybe it's just me but I cannot think of a single instance of this happening. Ever.

Every case I've ever seen of such investment was for the purpose of serving things that already existed or in response to private capital's proposed plans for the location. And often as not that private capital has to pick up much of the cost of that construction, too.

And by the way, George. Where did the knowledge of how to create infrastructure items like roads, electrical and water distribution networks, etc., come from? Government? Please. Government can at best sponsor prizes (using other people's money) for those bringing forth new technologies that are specifically desired but ultimately the advances come fastest form private enterprises competing to offer the best product and win the business.

The songs seem custom made for it, especially the line about "all of my Change I spent on you." Obviously not what Adam Levine meant when he wrote it but then libs are not always savvy with teh irony. (And the chicken at CFA is so-so, but the drinks? Heaven. They make their lemonade by hand—I'm pretty sure their light lemonade is what ambrosia tastes like—and have amazing peach shakes in summer and peppermint ones in winter. They just barely had their dress like a cow day and our whole office went and got free food, good times.)
