What Can't You Find On The Internet?

heres the one

Another fucking spree shooting. Great.

glad you're okay!!!!

it wasn't fun. :(

i have to say, the police response was incredibly fast. i heard the shots on my walk, about 3 minutes away from my home, and as i rushed home there were already a dozen police cars racing toward the school. i got inside and let my neighbors know, and then dozens of more gunshots, and it was over. the suspect is in custody, apparently, and the situation is now "safe" (although all the kids are being evacuated to another HS down the street, the Schnucks, a diner).

jfc. it was really such a beautiful day, with the leaves and everything. i hate this fucking world

nobody was hurt??

at least 6 in the hospital. details aren't out yet, who is dead, who is alive, who is student, staff, or the shooter

Jesus christ

Oh Karl, that's so horrifying. Hoping the best for all the survivors, and for you.

a picture of a ford fiesta that looks like i remember a ford fiesta looking

Intrigued!

I roughly think of this:

How does your memory of it differ?

the picture accompanying today's 'we're gonna stop making the fiesta' looked like some futuristic jelly mould thing, so i did an image search and got 3 pages of just those and nothing like alba's picture (first hit was on the 18th row of pictures).

Oh yes, I searched for ford fiesta 1982 or something.

norm from cheers was often seen at grunge gigs. but i can't find any proof of this on the internet (something about minutement and ilm itself turns up the husker du factoid but...)

also, wednesday addams' middle name (which i'm sure is thursday but, again, no hits)

i think i might need a new search engine

wiki-what-now?

(ha, i searched for thursday there... found nothing)

What level of evidence for Norm at grunge gigs do you need? I can't find photos or him talking about it but someone here mentions passing him a joint at a Nirvana gig:

Couple of recent Mudhoney reports:

I saw George Wendt at a @_Mudhoney show last year.

I saw George Wendt at a @mudhoney / Flesh Eaters show at the Echoplex in LA sitting on a bench and drinking a beer.

wow, that recent? i think i remember an nme interview with him in the 90s that mentioned it

(don't really need any more proof other than someone telling me i didnt imagine it tbh)

not grunge, but Wendt is in the Replacements doc, Color Me Obsessed. also showed up in a Soul Asylum video.

I remember seeing an interview with Wendt on UK tv back in the 90s where he mentioned liking Wayne Kramer.

not grunge, but Wendt also showed up in a Ray Parker Jr. video.

From a 20-years-old post on the Associates thread:

i still have that "the 80s" thing that the late show did (3 hours on new years eve 1989) which was a fun retrospective of 80s music.

what's that one album that has the liner notes (or back cover?) that is packed with a bunch of really cool/influential/relatively little known punk/experimental recordings? there's a thread on it, but i can't recall which band recorded the album.

yes! thank you adam!

beware of the freaky euro prog lurking in that list, harsh a mellow fast ime

Does anyone have Hunter Age 3

there's a specific awkward ESL instructional video shot in Korea that got excerpted into short clips so that the ESL aspect and setting wasn't apparent, so it was just American ex-pat kids behaving like they're in a David Lynch movie, but I can't recall any scenarios that would make it easily searchable.

but awkward ESL instructional videos are also a genre that's hard to search for lately -- this appears way down a list of search results:

an oldish video on youtube about the processes that take place in the UK in the event of a nuclear attack - letters of last resort, government bunkers, the processes designed to enable ongoing government etc.

actually maybe it was this but put on youtube

Historian Prof Peter Hennessy speaks to the people who have operated Britain's nuclear deterrent over the years and today, including military commanders, politicians and former Vulcan bomber crew members. He visits Northwood, the headquarters from which the order to fire would come today, and Corsham, the secret nuclear bunker which, in the 1960s, would have been the location for an alternative government in the event of all-out war.

and lo, i find it. that was a rollercoaster ride. as you were

(genuinely periodically but fruitlessly been trying to find this on and off for a few years now, maybe coming to ilxor unblocked it for me)

so here's what bugging me today. vanishingly little from the 1973 "doraemon" series circulates online. one of the only clips existing is a scene from a japanese pink film where the episode "love love this camera" is playing in the background. the clip is pretty well-circulated, but what i haven't been able to find is the _name_ of the pink film in question. i'm not super interested in pink films, i just think the idea of a pink film that people are primarily interested in because there's an eight-second clip of doraemon playing in the background is fucking _hilarious_.

A quick search found me this:

oh that was quick, thanks!

Viral video about 2012/2013. A cartoon bunny crops up repeatedly and tells people to put their 3d glasses on in an increasingly sinister/wacky way. GLASSES ON!!!!

Also, the name of a movie, fairly recent, about a woman pitching the idea of making a movie about getting away with murder, then doing several murders, including one where she kills her best friend/crush with sesame seed bagels when she knows he's allergic to them.

Most things I want to Google based on a small recollection are literally unGoogleable now.

I Blame Society?

Yes!! thank you!!

it doesn't even have a Wikipedia page!

It was the second google hit for: imdb "sesame seed" murder

fuck the literal hours I have spent googling "murder" "sesame" "bagel" "movie" woman making movie murders etc etc

Now do the glasses on bunny!

pre swap-shop, so before 1976, bbc1 children's programmes on Saturday morning used to include a show about fencing. what was it called? "cut and parry", "cut and thrust"?

(there was another about gymkhana iirc. and stuff like Flashing Blade and Heidi, although i think that may've been summer programming)

"Some of Dias's original material was recorded on a 1999 CD called Matter of Time, with Lisa Jason (Vocals) and Andy Bergsten (Bass) as the core of the band."

Allmusic is able to confirm that this is an actual record, that Denny Dias did not play on? but wrote some of the material, however I cannot find anyplace online to listen to any of it

Wow that is a tough one. Maybe this is a lead? https://m.facebook.com/events/261366957388486
