Rule 5 Sunday: The Hearts of Space

— compiled by Wombat-socho The local classical music station here in Las Vegas is notable for three things: an absence of annoying NPR “news” programs, the most excellent Pipe Dreams program, devoted to music from pipe organs, and the intriguing Music from the Hearts of Space, arguably one of the oldest radio shows devoted to […]

Rule 5 Sunday: Just What It Says On The Label

— compiled by Wombat-socho With the coming of cool weather to Las Vegas, one’s thoughts naturally turn to hot & spicy foods – and, of course, hot and spicy women. What better example than Kate Upton, who in a classic example of truth in advertising, went to a Halloween party dressed as a bottle of […]

Rule 5 Sunday: World Patriarchy Day Edition

Rule 5 Sunday: Proudly Encouraging The Male Gaze Since 2009

— compiled by Wombat-socho This week’s appetizer is courtesy of some moron on the AoSHQ Facebook Group, and is further proof that fans can often come up with better music videos than the band that made the music to start with. Much like many of the links to follow, this video may be considered NSFW, […]
