Those of us who has followed Mr Peanut Butter Sandwich knows that he every once in a while gets tired of his blog and starts over in an other shape. Now he has done it again! Last time, when he closed down Earnest Little Cartoon Guy, I and several others had a hard time finding him so for all of you here's a link to the new blog: Biggest Part Of My Life Is Me.
Update: He says about the new blog "I think I wanted a blog that's a bit more personal and a bit more like a diary with links and other stuff I dig intertwined, so to speak."
PS He also says he'll keep the old blog but he won't update it.

The Groovy Age of Horror has been doing a lot about Naziploitation (Nazi exploitation). I guess that the concept means pulp books, comics and films with a Nazi theme. Sex and violence are the other two main ingredients. Sometimes it makes pure porn with Nazis exploiting their dominating position. If this, for whatever reason, sounds interesting you know where to go.

I happened to stumble upon a bunch of blogs about thrift store findings. Probably a semi-conscious stumble as this, to some degree, is a hobby of my own. The blog called The Art of Finding made by "an artist and a mother and a professional level thrift shopper" was one of the better. For instance, in one post she writes about finding a bunch of binders - one for each year, 1961 and throughout the eighties - and how you can see the design change with time.
The photo is from one of the binders. What year? Around 1970 I guess.

Twilightzone! is a new music blog by faithful Martin Klasch supporter Christoph (AKA Rideyourpony) aus Deutschland. Right now he is offering "Finnischer tango". Yes, the Finns love tango and probably think they invented it, and this is a funny and truly interesting compilation. Twilightzone! also has some great Bo Diddley, Screaming Jay Hawkins and more. To say the least it's a promising start!
Lostandfoundalbums is a very impressive co-operative music blog project which anyone and everyone can join. The creator of the blog is the infamous HansZUN. Already, after a few days in operation, there are lots of tasty music downloads linked there. OBSOLETE!

Just for the Swedish readers:
Här kommer en sen inkommen länk till en blogg mina gamla buzz-kamrater/antagonister har startat.
"Tanken med denna blogg är att den ska utgöra ett enkelt men samtidigt effektivt sätt att kommunicera tvättider över internet. Det kommer självklart också att finnas utrymme för diskussioner om tvättider, tvättmaskiner, tvättstugor you name it... "
Tvättkultur för riktiga pojkar med andra ord.
Tvättid
Ajöken igen.
Är Herr Fronning på ingående månne?

No, I haven't experienced a weekend at/of Motel Hell, but I have been absent. Busy, just busy...
Sorry about that!
Now, back to the good stuff.
Check out the blog, Motel Hell (from the very same guy that gave us Old Haunts; Deviled Ham; Malls Of America and Santa and Me!).
