It’s Thursday. Charles Haycock is a comedian who decided that a normal career was far too depressing, so he chose to make a living standing in front of strangers and pointing out how ridiculous everything is.

Originally from South Africa and now hitting the Canadian comedy scene, Haycock specializes in the kind of dark, offbeat humor that makes you laugh and then wonder if you should probably feel bad about it. He’s performed at major comedy festivals and released his special *Freezer Baby*, which I’m featuring here today.

Basically, if you enjoy your comedy a little weird, a little uncomfortable, and just the right amount of WTF, Charles Haycock might be your guy.

It’s Wednesday. There’s a Godzilla museum?! How the hell did I not know about this?

Attractions Atlas takes us on a tour of Japan’s permanent Godzilla Museum at Nijigen no Mori on Awaji Island, and apparently they decided that simply having a Godzilla museum wasn’t enough. Nope. They had to go completely nuts with it.

Inside you’ll find movie memorabilia, models, props, dioramas, and enough Godzilla goodness to make a lifelong monster fan question why the hell they haven’t booked a flight to Japan already. It’s basically a shrine to the King of the Monsters—and unlike most museums, there’s a pretty good chance you’ll leave wondering whether Godzilla is actually going to stomp your ass on the way out.

But the real insanity is outside.

Part of the Godzilla Interception Operation Awaji is a nearly 400-foot-long Godzilla sculpture. And because looking at a giant radioactive lizard apparently wasn’t terrifying enough, visitors can strap themselves into a zipline and fly directly into Godzilla’s enormous mouth.

Yep!

Somewhere along the way, humanity decided, “You know what would be fun? Pretending to be a tasty little snack for Godzilla.”

It’s Tuesday. One of my readers recently came across a gathering of Corvette goodness at River Landing Country Club in Wallace, North Carolina. I have to admit, I’m a little jealous. While these folks are still enjoying beautiful weather and outdoor car events, the clock is ticking here in Illinois. We’ve got the rest of September and, if Mother Nature is feeling generous, maybe the first week of October before the temperatures start really taking a dive.

For now, I’ll enjoy the photo and live vicariously through those lucky bastards down south who get to keep their Corvettes out and about longer than us!

Hi Keep,

River Landing in Wallace, NC held its annual Vette get together today. Here’s an early shot before everyone had shown up but I had a tee time to get to. Display it on your website if you have a slow day.
