Everyone knows it’s windy

Heavy weather in the pipeline for Weaselland tonight.

I would hate to admit how long I had to look for this video before I found it. Breaking Bad has muddied the Googly waters by using a version in the series.

But I succeeded. I give you Windy. The audio is a live recording from the 1967 Ravinia Festival, but the link above jumps to the live action reenactment halfway through, when the chick playing Windy arrives.

Everything about her is – *mwah* – perfection. Her false eyelashes. Her ruffly bikini. The stupid look on her face throughout. I particularly commend to your attention her stormy eyes that flash at the sound of lies, wherein she looks hilariously mental.

This is from that weird crossover period when the songs were hippie but the TV actors were still Lawrence Welk.

Or rewind to the beginning and listen. I always liked this song.

If I get swept away in the night, I love you guys…

If we may pause in our worry for you (and I find it difficult) while we’re on the subject of odd videos, I stumbled across one today.

A little background:

Is anyone else familiar with the Opossum Lady and her videos?

Perhaps no? But surely you’ll be familiar with her supporting player(?) actor (?) odd creature (!) in this youtube video:

Hint: He’s the girl that made Budweiser infamous!

If you are NOT familiar with MEPearl, (aka The Possum Lady) here’s a link to her youtube video site:

I shall now return to worrying about Badger and Weasel, and ignoring Possums.

This is actually incredibly insightful and accurate. Well said.

I met a Wendy of my same age (born 1967), full maiden name “Wendy Ann Rainey”. She was kind of a beeyotch but I wish I had met her parents who where probably fun to party with.

OMG! Frilly bikinis! Out-of-tune live musical performance! Recorder solos! I thought we left the Sixties behind no no no…

Seriously, love that song, but like so many bands from that era, playing live was NOT their forté!

Beware: more than one link in a comment is apt to earn you a trip to the spam filter, where you will remain -- cold, frightened and alone -- until I remember to clean the trap. But, hey, without Akismet, we'd be up to our asses in...well, ass porn, mostly.
