Missed it by a day, but rise up young funksters to celebrate the 80th birthday of the legendary George Clinton. Noted funk chronicle NPR dropped this fascinating little vignette about the bandleader's history and influence, centered on the epic Maggot Brain.
I heard Blackbyrd McKnight play Eddie Hazel's solo a few years ago. Melted shit all over the place. Cheers up to the Mothership. May the Duke of Funkenstein have 80 more years. Free your mind and your ass will follow.Dedicated to the premise that life would be better if we all took ourselves a little less seriously.

Mersh, you gotta lay off the pipe man. Clinton is playing right here!
Yoodge day. I guess no one likes George Clinton.
Cleveland Guardians. All right. Play ball.
guardians of the cuyahoga
Also, the only time I saw George Clinton and P-Funk play live was in Cleveland.
siri, how do i get the smell of cat piss out of a laptop bag?
Have your dog piss on it, then it smells like cat piss. Coincidentally, today we are officially down to zero zcats.
Then it smells like *dog* piss. I'm too emotional to type.
sorry to hear that, z. love those fuzzy bastards.
robbie hummel was one of my favorite college players. happy to see him get to play again in tbt.
the austrian soccer team i own lost the first game of the season. we’re on to grödig.
Happy Olympics, y’all. I know one among us is an Olympic junkie.
fact
I thoroughly enjoy the Olympics. Looking forward for the next two weeks.
This is my president Clinton
Just gonna brag a bit. The wife was on NBC Nightly News tonight taking housing data. To say she puts me to shame is the understatement of the century.
Ignore the typo, assholes
saw the good doc. she does, indeed, put you to shame.
Hi Gheorghepeople!
Saw P-Funk and Bootsy's Rubber Band and Co. at U. Maryland's Cole Field House in 1975 or '76. Clinton and Parliament didn't get started until almost midnight. In the era before cellphones, made command decision to stay for the entire show, knowing that I would be in deep shyte when I got home. Which I was, since I didn't get home until about 3:30 a.m. Parents didn't believe they were still playing music past 2 a.m.
happy jason varitek catcher's mitt facewashing alex rodriguez day, y'all. what are you doing to celebrate? me, i'm hanging out with marls.
I remember that OBFT very well. Highly entertaining. I’ll have one for you and for Varitek.
I was visiting my sister in Tallahassee that weekend. I do t give a damn about those two teams but that was a fun day.
dog summit with 4/5 of marls. dude looks like a superhero. cut like marble.
Same as it ever was.
Marbls
Tell Marls we missed him at the fishing trip.
he was tolden
I be told
Happy Birthday, Donna!
And USA men’s (w)hoops...
how dumb is jon rahm?
I’m way more upset about USA men’s basketball than I should be. I’m ready to say Pop isn’t the guy to steward this ship post Coach K.
i got spain +1200 to win the gold, so my feelings are mixed
Thanks Whit. Got to spend the week in Corolla —amazing weather! Enjoying Olympics so far…we like making fun of NBC coverage but more fun, seeing sports we never see.
