Not A Very Aerodynamic Ride: A Flying Snake

That's an awesome coin! And I love the reference.

I think deep fried snake on a stick is available at the Texas State Fair. But not deep fried snake on a stick on a snake.

Hey, here's another IFO I haven't posted. Was saving it for another occasion but might as well stick it here.

I'm not entirely happy with the pictures. The coin has been cleaned to death and is therefore shiny. I plan to reshoot it.

Another pigasus joins the flock. The bigger brother to my other Klazo pigasi.

a new pigasus in the pork aviarium!how many is that now TIF?

WB, I tried to look up who trogdor is ...but now I'm even more confused.

Chris if you watch the Original Trogdor at the end of the video you my get a better idea.

Until then beware the Burninator

Well. That Trogdor vid is... something. Looks ripe for becoming a meme. And dagnabit Chris-- now I can't get the song out of my head.

I have half a squadron of pigasi now. Initial mission accomplished, just waiting on some shipments.

I will continue seeking out porcine pilots but now it's time to find some from locales other than Klazomenai. They are out there, at least 5 other cities, but harder to come by.

Here's the first one I bought. Showing it again because I love it. 9 mm; the denomination is unlisted with boar left-- all others found are boar right.

Geez right now I feel young in years but old on the internet. Trogdor has been around forever. I remember first watching it something like 9 years ago on Strongbad. He predates memes!

I'm totaly down with all the cool stuff the kids are into these days.

i can get jiggy with it and listen to the snoopy dog dog, and instragram....and.....that fox song...uuuuuuuuuuh...nevermind.



have to admit the trogdor song is pretty catchy.
