Multi-Headed Monkeys
Hey folks! It's been a busy weekend, and I still have a lot of things to get done over the next few days, so this will be brief - just a video and a satellite image.
As I've mentioned frequently in the recent past, my favorite video game of all time is The Secret of Monkey Island, and there's a Swedish band that covers Nintendo music that performed the theme song, as well as the Ghost Pirate LeChuck's theme (think "Darth Vader", except in a comedic pirate context), at a concert in London in 2004. Here's the video.
In case you enjoyed the music so much that you're now compelled to download it, you can do so here or here. Even though most of the excellent Monkey Island websites have stopped posting new content within the last few years, they've left their sites up. Oh, and for the record, today's title, in addition to being a play on the next paragraph, comes from this image.
Today's satellite image is between the Palace of the Doges and Saint Mark's Basilica in Venice, Italy. Why between the two? Because that's the location of a statue of the four tetrarchs. For more information, read here.
I'll have the long-awaited picture of myself and Peter, formerly known as Sneaky Pete, up in tomorrow's post. In the mean time, remember: if a man is obsessed with a sports team that he has had no previous geographic affiliation with, to the point of incorporating it into room decorations, you probably have a problem.
