Mystery Cam: Funked Out To Death
'Don't Be So Funky!' 'I Can't Help It, Boy'
In case you were, like, living in a CAVE or somethin', I performed one of my more evocative triangle jams in a recent Mozart concert, over the singing of Laura (or, as I call her, Kentucky Joe) and her choir. And I gotta tell you, I rocked. I ripped up the place, I tore the roof off the mother, I got down with my bad self, I got up with my bad self, I stayed immobile for my bad self, I turned it every which way but loose and back again until the crowd was funked out to death!
But, as Laura mentioned in a previous column, there was a small but vocal minority who felt that my Gene Krupa-esque stylings were somehow "inappropriate" for a slow Mozart dirge. Oh yeah, well, life is "inappropriate"! That's what makes this nutty trip on this celestial sphere the cosmic joyride that it is! My music is all about freedom, and if those squares can't get into the groove, it's their bummer.
Anyway, my art is not about talk, it's about the music. And, if you all are interested, I can include a sample from my solo in a future article. Just give me the word.
Well, speaking of rockin', and additionally, of rollin', the spot of this week's Mystery Cam is world-famous for being the funk center of the snowy wasteland. If you have an idea as to the origin of this shot, search the above load of links and find the URL or exact name of the place. You have to more specific than giving the state or county name. Then e-mail me with your guess.
Last Week
Well, since you asked, I had an awesome week last week! I performed one of my more evocative triangle jams in a recent Mozart concert, over the singing of Laura (or, as I call her, Kentucky Joe) and her ? whoa, I just got some major d?j? vu. Don't you hate that?
Also, last week Laura took her turn at the Webcam controls, and gave you a picture of the capitol building in glorious Pierre, S.D. The first ones to get it right were Dick Durand, the perennial champion, Linda Hedderman, the bright-faced newcomer, and the devastating tag-team duo of Ken "The Killer" and "Bodacious" Barb Bodda.
The clues referred to a "high honcho in Washington," who is Sen. Tom Daschle, the Senate minority leader. The other state patriotic symbol to which she referred was Mount Rushmore, of course.
Clues
Do you drive and listen to music? Well, this is the state for you! People here do both, simultaneously, and with pride.
There's not much to say about this specific city, except that it has a proud, noble name that soars above other names across this great nation of ours. But not over other nations. To hell with them.
What else? Oh, another thing about this place is that it has snow. And water.
