Portable Turntable major item for marching DJ's on the million DJ march on DC coming up. (lost the source, sorry)
But Here is what happens when the Band doesn't show up: [clik HERE]
Yep, you always get what you pay for. And on this free association no news day in a societal information age gone completely bonkers:
....huh?
Mean while in Olympia, Washington... a parade of a different animal takes place around their college mascot: Geoducks.
PHOTO: Geoduck is an official mascot for the
Evergreen State College in Olympia, Washington - which also has a (very appropriate) motto: "Let It All Hang Out"Why Ikki Peed Ya says:
The geoduck (pronounced /ˈguːiːdʌk/ gooey duck[1]), Panopea abrupta, is a species of large saltwater clam, a marine bivalve mollusk. The shell of this clam is large, about 15 to over 20 cm in length (about 7 to 9 inches), but the long siphons make the clam itself much longer; the "neck" or siphons alone can be one meter in length.
They are definitely not "ducks", nor do they have any relation to "geo"-logy. In fact, they seem alien enough to be "from Mars" and, for all I know, possess a malign intelligence.
They are found mostly around Pacific Coast of the US and Canada, and in
Japan they seem to serve as inspiration for "manga" of certain tentacled variety. A good info page is definitely in order to get the facts straight, but nothing can prepare you for the shock of seeing them for the first time: ...You readers have to fill in the blanks, I've run out of smartie phrases.
Fistful of Mollusk ??
