There is no bouncing in the psychedelic fish video but the next - hairy frog fish - bounces along on its "legs" and seems to have an acolyte in tow. Or maybe it's a big lady , little man combo as sometimes occurs in Nature.

What's way more interesting, to me, is the way the thing seems to prop itself up with, well... a sort of stumpy little leg.

U.S. rattled as Mexico drug war bleeds over border
PHOENIX (Reuters) – Hit men dressed in fake police tactical gear burst into a home in Phoenix, rake it with gunfire and execute a man.Armed kidnappers snatch victims from cars and even a local shopping mall across the Phoenix valley for ransom, turning the sun-baked city into the "kidnap capital" of the United States.
Execution style murders, violent home invasions, and a spiraling kidnap rate in Phoenix -- where police reported an average of one abduction a day last year linked to Mexican crime -- are not the only examples along the border.

Yes. Here's his website;
The Official Website Of The Dr. Demento Radio Show
The format's a bit different now. Instead of the Funny Five in the last half-hour of each show, once a month he does the Top Ten for the last half of the show. A lot of old favorites, but the newer stuff is mainly political, mainly "progressive", and mostly lame.
Funny music seems to be going the way of Kansas. (The group, not the state.)

Yes. Here's his website;
The Official Website Of The Dr. Demento Radio ShowThe format's a bit different now. Instead of the Funny Five in the last half-hour of each show, once a month he does the Top Ten for the last half of the show. A lot of old favorites, but the newer stuff is mainly political, mainly "progressive", and mostly lame.
Funny music seems to be going the way of Kansas. (The group, not the state.)

Only for a moment, then the moment's gone

Thanks so much! I've just bookmarked it. That was where I first heard "Yoda" and other songs.
Whenever I hear Dust in the Wind now, I think of Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure!

Well ,, I lived on the top floor of a 5 story walk up. The only thing that would have heard me if I knocked on the ceiling would have been the City Doves (otherwise known as pigeons)
As far as knocking on the pipes, that was our sign to the landlord (who lived on floors 1 & 2) that the heat wasn't making it up to 5!
