Animal Hospital–Live on WNUR; Dosh–Live on WNUR

Animal Hospital–just heard Animal Hospital – “Live on WNUR 5/28/09″. OMG it’s like the best thing I’ve heard in years. Parts were like, as good as Sonic Youth Daydream Nation. WOW!!!

El Coco–Cocomotion

Disco for world peace…sounds like the awesome soundtrack to this one 1970s Galaxy Express 999 movie I have…also see the related 70s disco group Le Pamplemousse.

Stand Up Paddle Surfing/SUPing

Wow, I was by this lake and saw this guy, way out in the middle of the lake, and it looked like he was walking on water! He had a paddle, and was paddling, standing up…what he was standing on wasn’t even a kayak–it was a surfboard, I guess it’s called stand up paddle [...]

Graph of Division, Plus Quotative and Partative Division: Which is Easier for Kids to Understand?
