Aggregated Awesomeness: The filling the dark void in my heart edition
Still mourning the end of "Sunglasses After Dark," so I've been a-trollin' the interweb this morning in search for some of that Oleo Magneto weirdness. Not quite there, but, still, some gems:
- An almost life-changingly awesome video from New Albany, Mississippi preacher Estus Pirkle from the 70s or 80s. A vision of a heaven that's "7 million times bigger than New York City!" and looks a lot like Krypton. With a singing midget bringing it all home. Eat that, David Lynch!

- Ok, maybe it's time to quit: Walter Brennan covering "Ruby Don't Take Your Love to Town" Courtesy of UBU 365-day project, one of my favorite day-wasters.
