Widget that takes any song and makes it Swing<\/a>, by lengthening the first beat and shortening the second. With examples: Sweet Child of Mine, Cream, Money for Nothing. Ah heck, I’ll embed the last one:

Via Ryan Paddy, the Museum of Bad Art<\/a>, which is an actual museum. It has its own acronym: MOBA.<\/p>\n

And finally, via Dangerous Minds<\/a> which is where I get most of my linky these days to be honest, the Bay City Rollers and Ann Margaret perform in front of the most amazing audience you could ever want. Warning: includes knitting.<\/p>\n
