On September 1 1983 ranchers working along a rural highway in Hamilton County Texas discovered something horrifying
Human remains
Investigators determined the victim was a woman
She had been shot in the head
But there was one enormous problem
Nobody knew who she was
For more than four decades she remained unidentified
No name
No family to notify
No answer to the question of who had taken her life
Investigators could only describe the things found with her
Brown knee high boots
A blue and white polka dot blouse
Stretch blue jeans
A Timex watch with a brown leather strap
Bobby pins
And two barrettes decorated with orange roses
Those small personal objects became some of the only clues to the identity of a woman who had effectively disappeared from history

Eddie Van Halen Pt.2, 1998年
日本のTV番組に生出演してインタビューを受けた後、バンドの新シンガー Gary Cheroneと "Josephina" を生演奏。
幻想的で哀愁漂う、いい曲🤘 ジーンとくる…
演奏中、Eddieが歌ってるGaryを優しい眼差しで度々見つめてるのが印象的👍
Italian rhythmic gymnast Sofia Raffaeli is truly out of this world.
Just listen to the crowd erupt as she delivers a breathtaking, sublime performance.
An exceptionally rare, colossal sub-bass string instrument (standing nearly 3.5 meters tall) that complements the sound of the double bass.
The musical atmosphere is serene yet immensely powerful. As the familiar melody of "Amazing Grace" resonates through the profound, deep frequencies of the Octobass—one of the rarest and most unique string instruments in the world—one can almost sense the primal, vast pulse of nature.
I think Brian Fellow is one of those SNL characters people sometimes misunderstand.
The obvious joke is that he knows almost nothing about animals.
But I don't think that's what made the character work.
Tracy Morgan debuted Brian Fellow's Safari Planet in 1999, playing a host who was completely confident despite having very little idea what he was talking about.
And that's where the character gets interesting.
Because SNL has done plenty of “stupid character” sketches.
Brian Fellow felt different.
Why?
I think the answer has less to do with how little Brian knew
and much more to do with how absolutely certain he was that he knew everything.
