Mahna Mahna

New Elementary is running a contest where you can win some sweet LEGO prizes. All you have to do is create a model using the lantern seed part and submit it here

 

For me, the lantern reminds me of a face. A muppet singing "Mahna-Mahna..." or an alien making first contact, and so...

Mahna? No. Womahna.

 

Now the song Mahna Mahna is in my head...

"Nothing better than bringing your high maintenance sister to yoga."

 

I swapped the bodies on these two, as the proportions seemed more appropriate reversed. MTM Asha was never on my wishlist (because I assumed she would never come to Canada), but stumbling upon her at the store really changed my opinion. I actually really love how cute she is! An instant favourite for sure. Plus, no glue for once!

 

I also have Fashionista Steven (not pictured), whom has been partnered with Asha now. Cuteness overload!

 

Also, Also? I've had this Barbie Basics Model 08 for years but she always photographs like a bag of freezer burnt peas. I'm hoping that this body upgrade will help show her true beauty!

From the Adult Swim show "The Boondocks." The guy was trying to get me to say his whole name, "A Pimp Named Slickback" - I wasn't getting the joke which is small gag on the show - and I think I broke his brain a bit by replying with "Mahna Mahna?"

Updated my earlier Muppet Show Mahna Mahna build with a brand new singer (also named Mahna Mahna). Now on LEGO Ideas trying to gather 10,000 supporters for consideration as an official set.

Originally from 1976 (episode 17 of the 1st season of the Muppet Show), and sung by Mahna Mahna and the two Snowths, the Mahna Mahna song was reborn as the Phenomena song in episode 7 of Muppets Tonight (broadcast 20/9/96 in the UK, 23/6/96 in the US). The Phenomena song was performed by Dr. (Sandra) Bullock the Animal Psychiatrist, who was visited by Kermit. Kermit's problem was that he saw strange creatures whenever he said the word "phenomena"...

I have read about the "entertainment' that took place

at Hugh Hefner's Playboy Mansion, a lot of it X-rated,

but I never ran across puppet shows ...

 

I listened to some of the songs on this album,

too "jazzy" for me this morning :)

 

instead I give you The Muppets performing

"Mahna Mahna" on the Ed Sullivan Show - 1969

Circa 1984, an artist named Coulter Watt painted a Muppet mural of epic proportions for the Jim Henson Company’s New York City office. The mural is instantly recognizable by Muppet fans, having been used as the backdrop for several photographs, including several famous pics with Jim and Kermit.

The FGR theme of the day was tributes to Weird Al songs. There are so many good old school ones (my favorite of all time is probably Yoda), but I couldn't think of any great photos to do for any of them. So I came across "Couch Potato" and got my idea.

 

Couch Potato - Weird Al

 

Look

If you had

One shot

To sit on your lazy butt

And watch all the TV you ever wanted

Until your brain turned to mush

Would you go for it?

Or just let it slip?

Yo

 

Remote is ready

Eyes wide, palms are sweaty

There's Flintstones on the TV already

Wilma 'n' Betty

No virgin to channel surfin'

And I'm HD-ready

So I flip

Garbage is all I'm getting

 

There's Simon Cowell

Who folks wanna disembowel

He opens his mouth

Always says something foul

They're dyin', wow

Wannabes are crying now

He votes them out

Time to throw in the towel

 

Shows based on reality

Oh, the humanity!

Oh, Ozzy's family

Sho' loves profanity

Whoa, the insanity

Oh, dogs that crap and pee

Home of depravity?

No, they live happily

Yo

 

Plus "Da Ali G Show"

And "Celebrity Mole"

Oh, and there's Anna Nicole

Well, she's scaring me

 

"Look ma, no cavities"

Oh, it's a station break

Better go out to the kitchen and microwave something

 

"You're gonna lose your mind watchin' TV" They told me, they'd scold me

But I'd still tune in every show (show)

My cable gets C-SPAN, TV-Land, and HBO

The Travel Channel, Discovery, and Lifetime (yo)

 

"You're gonna lose your mind watchin' TV"

They told me, cajoled me, "Turn off those music videos" (no)

I'm gonna watch C-SPAN, TV-Land, and HBO

The History Channel and QVC and Lifetime (yo)

(You're gonna)

 

My butt is aching

As I watch NASCAR racing

That show about undertaking

Larry King

To "24" to "Law And Order"

The Weather Channel's boring like "60 Minutes"'s ancient reporters

Next up on "E! True Hollywood Story"

The rise and decline of twelve actors named Corey

 

Shows for next fall, they've already been namin'

"CSI: Boise" and "Touched By An Uncle" both sound pretty lame 'n'

So does "Everybody Tolerates Raymond"

And "King of Queens" jumped the shark the first minute

I can't believe Richard Simmons ain't in it

 

I'll move right on to "8 Simple Rules For Dating My Teenaged Daughter"

Then I bet

I watch "The Bachelorette"

Followed by "Welcome Back, Kotter"

And "The Muppet Show" where they go 'Mahna Mahna'

 

"You're gonna lose your mind watching TV"

They told me, they'd scold me

But I'd still tune in every show (show)

My cable gets C-SPAN, TV-Land, and HBO

The Disney Channel and A&E and Lifetime (yo)

 

"You're gonna lose your mind watching TV"

They told me, cajoled me

But I still love Lisa Kudrow (drow)

I'm looking at C-SPAN, TV-Land, and HBO

The Playboy Channel and Court TV and Lifetime (yo)

(You're Gonna)

 

Never missed "Melrose Place" or "Lost In Space"

I've seen each "Amazing Race" and "Without A Trace"

But I only watched "Will And Grace" one time one day

Wish I hadn't 'cause TiVo now thinks I'm gay

 

Oh, and "Fear Factor" I watched maybe a half hour

After that, felt like I needed a long shower

Network execs with naked ambitions

"Next week on FOX, watch lions eat Christians"

 

Like to tie up those programming planners

Make 'em watch all of that junk 'til their heads explode just like "Scanners"

Leech-covered grub-eatin' fools on "Survivor"

Look there's James Lipton discussing the oeuvre of Mr. Rob Schneider

 

And there's "Gilligan" and "SpongeBob", plus there's "MacGyver"

And Jay Leno has got Madonna, hey there's Luke Perry on a

Special all Pig-Latin episode of "Drew Carey"

 

Wanna turn on "E.T." 'cause I'm a gossip freak

And I gotta know who J. Lo is marryin' this week

A 30 second spot

Then we come back to "Are You Hot?"

I was planning on recording "The Sopranos"

I forgot

 

I love shows with or without a plot

I'll stare 'til my legs are numb, my eyes bloodshot

Because I only have got

One brain to rot

I'm gonna spend my life watching television a lot

 

"You're gonna lose your mind watching TV"

They told me, they'd scold me

But I'd still tune in every show (show)

My cable gets C-SPAN, TV-Land, and HBO

The Sci-Fi Channel and AMC and Lifetime (yo)

 

"You're gonna lose your mind watching TV"

They told me, cajoled me, "Turn off that Oprah Winfrey show" (no)

I got it on C-SPAN, TV-Land, and HBO

The Learning Channel and MTV and Lifetime (yo)

(You're gonna)

 

You can watch anything you want to, man

Every Friday, about 10 past 5 in the afternoon, this song comes of the radio (BBC radio 2) and we always sing and dance along!

 

Happy BA Friday!

There is a road upon which we must all tread with trepidation, summoned by the calls of hope to the heavens of light.

Kings walk along that road too, men alone, beckoned by the advocate of deeds. They must cross a second path as well, the perilous path of history.

Faisal walked the path of history from childhood. He treaded its arduous routes eliminating the obsacles of destiny.

 

Contemplative as a boy, dignified as a youth, and wise as a man. He became a witness to his age.

He acknowledged the summon of history, and honored its demanding call a lifetime, that when he was beckoned to head the final call, it was time itself that gave witness to him, as it released him, from the constraints of mortality to the splendour of eternity.

    

"On a decisive day in the history of the Arabian Peninsula, a chapter of the epic story of unification was to be written. In April 1906, Abdel-Aziz was blessed with two good omens; a military victory in the battle of 'Rawdat Mahna', and the birth of his third son. This victory marked the recapture of Najd by Abdel-Aziz Al Saud, and paved the way to future unification.

 

Abdel-Aziz named his son Faisal, the 'sword'. Sharp and incisive, that which seperates Truth from Falsehood. He was named after his great grandfather Faisal Ibn Turki Ibn Abdullah, who ruled for over twenty six years, and was known for his piety and unparalleled political insight, qualities acknowledged by both friends and foes. That was Imam Faisal Ibn Turki, son of the founder of the second Saudi nation, and this was Faisal Ibn Abdel-Aziz, the son of the founder of the third Saudi nation.

 

Faisal lost his mother, Tarafah, daughter of Abdullah Ibn Abdul Latif Al Sheikh - the most prominent scholar of Najd - when he was no more than five months old. He was raised in his grandfather's home, an abode of piety and knowledge; he committed the Holy Quran to memory before the age of ten. The loss of his mother, never forgotten, was reflected in the eyes of a child who longed for his mother and searched for her in vain. This was to be transformed into a solemn gaze which spoke of dignity and wisdom and that of a man who was to forge a unique destiny and transform a nation through force of character and power of conviction.

 

Faisal grew up between two worlds, the public life of battles and princely duties, and the private life of knowledge and contemplation. His character combined those of both his ancestors, Mohammad Ibn Saud, and Mohammad Ibn Abdul-Wahab. He held the sword in one hand, and the pen in the other. His days were those of chivalry, trials, and hardshop and his nights were of learning, contemplation and poetry, for Faisal was an accomplished poet."

Paul Gauguin or Eugène Henri Paul Gauguin (1848–1903) was one of the most influential Post-Impressionist artists. Gauguin's experimental use of color and stark contrasts spearheaded the Synthetism movement, which regarded form and color as equally important. Most of his paintings depict people or landscapes from French Polynesia since he spent many years in that region in search of inspiration. His artistic experiments influenced many avant-garde movements in the early 20th century as well as modern artists such as Pablo Picasso and Henri Matisse. We have digitally enhanced some of his notable works that are now in the public domain and made them available for you to download under the creative commons 0 license.
