I came across this when I was looking for a video for another thread: [_You Always Hurt The One You Love_](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dUynQaBRIZM). And from there, I found this: [_Horse Race (Beetle Bomb)_](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hq2kv-QQhIE&feature=related) Now, I’m sure he’s a perfectly normal guy with a sense of humour kind of like mine. But his persona is creepy. It works well with his lip-synching to Spike Jones classics. ---

OK, he’s not doing Spike Jones. But I liked this clip of [_Mental_](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pqomm7e4rIk&feature=related) ---

I love me some Spike Jones - and it wasn’t until just now that I realized that I novelty record I remember from c. 1975 was actually Spike Jones. (That horse race record had parallel, branching grooves - so you could have several different results when you re-played it. I remember our family used to actually place “fun” bets.) ---

Great, now I’ve got the Spike Jones version of _My Old Flame_ going through my head. \ What was her name? I’ll have to look through my collection of human heads. \ ---

I was really hoping that old guy would do _My Old Flame_. Maybe he did, but I didn’t see it. ---

I was flipping through “creepy old guys” youtube videos. Some of them are pretty damn entertaining. I liked the Edarem Vs Chat Roulette one. Anyways, turns out he’s sex offender that’s done jail time. I didn’t watch the whole thing, but [here’s](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K71u2I2wZS0&feature=related) the video showing news report on him. [Here’s](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_CRKLtVXZzM) the Chat Roulette video. The other related videos (ignoring the sex offender thing, are somewhat entertaining as well, sort of. ---
