Music Review: The Surfaris - Fun City USA/Wipe Out

"Wipe Out" may be the best known rock instrumental of the 1960s and one of the most popular of all time, plus it remains instantly recognizable almost 50 years after its initial release. It became a big hit during 1963 and again in 1966. Millions of teenagers, and probably adults, have tried to play the drum solo down through the years with pencils on boxes, dashboards, or whatever else happened to be handy at the time. The maniacal laugh at the beginning has announced the song through tens of millions of radio plays. It was recorded by Dale Smallen , who owned the recording studio, and left this one imprint upon rock history. Their other well-known song, and one of the classic songs of the surf era, was "Surfer Joe." Fitting yrics include, "Down in Doheny where the surfers all go, there's a big bleached blonde named Surfer Joe." It was originally the flip side of the "Wipe Out" single but became a hit in its own right. The best thing about this album track was it contained the long version of the song and not the shorter single version. The remainder of the 24 tracks range from the very good to typical album filler of the day. They are on solid ground with a number of instrumentals. Their original compositions, "Point Panic" and "Waikiki Run" are excellent representations of the instrumental surf sound of the day and their covers of "Apache" and "Jack The Ripper" are worth a listen as well.

Saturday Night Wipe-out | Funny about Money

Am i whipped.

Didn’t do much today but am just about wiped out with exhaustion. Compiled the Best of Money Carnival and scheduled it, but it was halfway done before this. Went with M’hijito to return the redundant dog crate to Walmart (His Maleness to haul the damn thing), there to collect a $90 refund. Ran over to Ace to pick up some new Danish oil with which to repair the puppy scratches on the kitchen cabinetry; got it home before I realized it was “walnut” stained; drove back through the heat-crazed traffic to get the “golden oak” flavor. Did the laundry, including the sheets. Fooled with the pool some more. Did battle with a difficult student who deserves a C-minus, is getting a B, and believes she should have an A.

Never did get around to cleaning house: too hot to function. Decided to put the puppy crate in a cooler part of the house, since the area where I’d like to locate Doggy Central is significantly warmer than any other rooms. Put the Navajo rug back on the wall where Pup tried to pull it down. Watered plants.

Finished off the day responding to a student who got a zero on the last paper (for not having done the assignment in spite having been warned at the draft stage) and threatened to go to the chair. Forthwith this development was topped off with the discovery that the washer overflowed and flooded the garage. Just spent a half-hour sweeping a lake down the driveway.

More gawdawful pretend news on the idiot box now, at 10:00 p.m.

Are we going to be unemployed? Probably; earlier this year a third of Americans were under- or unemployed . More recent data report that fewer than half of adult African-American men are employed, and that by 2018, less than half of adult white men will be employed; 22 million to 23 million people are under-employed or unemployed . Can we get any more unemployed than we are? Does anyone care?

for new work that represents underemployment, I heard from a client who’s a medical doctor in response to my questions to him about medical transcription as a possible new income generator.

He said that indeed a medical transcriptionist can make a decent wage. And while it’s true some of the work is being offshored, most jobs are still here in the U.S. But, says he, “The job is tedious and low intellectual in my opinion. You and Tina are way overqualified for the job. I hope you can find a better option to use your talents.
