  1. This week's #TuneTuesday theme is #implodeorexplode. The first tune that came into my mind is this classic rockabilly recording:

    Wanda Jackson: Fujiyama Mama (1957)

    The song had been previously recorded by Annisteen Allen and Eileen Barton. Allen's original R&B version, arranged by Howard Biggs, is also quite good:

    Annisteen Allen: Fujiyama Mama (1955)

    The lyrics (by Earl Burrows, who was better-known under his stage name, Jack Hammer) are somewhat questionable, written only a decade after Hiroshima and Nagasaki, but this didn't stop Wanda Jackson's version from being a hit in Japan.

  2. Jack Hammer

    The temperature outside of my house right now is a balmy 18 degrees Fahrenheit. That’s 14 degrees below freezing for our non-US, non-English temperature unit using readers. It’s really cold. The ground is completely frozen. It’s January 7th. It’s as Winter as you can get.

    At this very moment there is a work crew jack hammering the street in front of our house. They are jack hammering all over the street. I think it’s something to do with upgrading the gas lines or something like that. The city sent us a notice about it months ago and at the time we thought, why the hell are they going to start a project like that in January? What the hell are they thinking? Have they never been in Massachusetts in January before? Everything will be frozen.

    So yeah, we’ve got that jack hammering thing going for us as we start our work day today. Oh yeah, we also have a furniture delivery truck scheduled to show up within the next three hours or so… and the road is being dug up…

    Nice. Ugh.

  3. So this is my husband’s solution to planting roses in our frustratingly rocky, limestone yard - use a jackhammer. 😜 #gardening #tools #jackhammer

  4. Finally went to the long-waited, newly renovated #Jackhammer, the “leading leather and fetish lounge” in Chicago with @sillyslavebear. It’s a Tuesday night but we had so much fun!! Really substantive conversations about history and psychiatry, and slavebear sucked 3 cocks, rimmed 2 guys, and got rimmed.
