As promised, here’s the next installment of my Dad’s songs. It’s a John Prine song called the Oldest Baby in the World and it’s ripped from an old video tape. Dad played it right after the first song I posted, Fool Such as I, so you’ll hear the rest of us occasionally. Sarah always sang the song with my Dad and we were trying to get her to sing for the video. The phone rings at one point, too.

If you missed the previous two songs, here they are:
Mark Garvey – I’m Coming Home
Mark Garvey – Fool Such as I

You know those ridiculous email scams you always get where the guy in Africa says he needs to smuggle $25 million out of his country with your help and you’ll get 10% if you help him? There’s a site out there of people who scam the scammers back.
The greatest one has the anti-scammer pretending to be an art dealer and gets the scammer to craft a couple of wooden carvings and ship them overseas. The best part is what he got the guy to carve.

Yeah, he carved a Commodore 64 keyboard. Read about it.

I know I’m late in linking to this, but I just actually listened to it today.
A guy recorded himself trying to cancel his AOL account. It’s well known that AOL offers up passive resistance to doing so, but I never thought it would be this bad.
Listen to the call here.

I’ve seen this piece on 60 Minutes before, but they just released it as a podcast. It’s the story of children who have severe mental disabilities who are somehow able to tap into amazing musical talent. One of the kids could play Mozart before she could say “mama.”
It’s fascinating, so check it out.

Isn’t it annoying that english muffins have one good side and one bad side? The bad side is still ok to eat, but it doesn’t hold the butter/peanut butter/jelly as well as it’s non-identical twin. If anyone can figure out a way to make an english muffin with two good sides you’d probably become a millionaire.

I heard about this on FLOSS Weekly’s interview with Ben Goodger, one of the creators of Firefox. They asked him what features in Firefox are underused and he said “keyword searches.”
To use this feature, go to a site you do a lot of searching on like IMDB and right click on the search box. You’ll see “add a keyword for this search.” Add the keyword “imdb” and then hit ok. Now, all you need to do to search imdb is open a browser window and type in for the url “imdb Godzilla” and it will do a search on imdb for “Godzilla.” Pretty neat.

As promised, here’s the next installment of my Dad’s songs. This one was really a surprise to me. I’ve heard the song before, but I only heard him play it once or twice. He recorded it on his minidisc recorder and the sound quality is fantastic. It’s a great Robert Earl Keen song called “I’m Coming Home.”
