HERE IT IS
No expense is spared here at thumping the tub (well, I bought some blank Cds and took a taxi).
I hereby present the first movie made by thumping the tub
there are british equivalents of that tune which all seem to revolve around meeting in cafes in berlin once the war is won. odd.
anyway, i heard the tune when it was used on the credits of an excellent film called 'we interrupt this empire' whic you can watch here http://tinyurl.com/8s7g8 i cannot recommend it highly enough
i wasn't able to watch the video at home (dial up and it JUST WOULDN'T PLAY RIGHT) so now i have and it is great! believe it or not i am familiar with that song so i knew you didn't make it up.
i'm going to link to this post but FIRST, i'm going to DUCK AND COVER
Great work. I especially liked the bit about newspapers, which for sheer comic genius must rival Protect and Survive's advice about sheltering behind doors and painting windows white.
Very nice; very slick! The cheerful retro tone of the 'Praise God...' song lends a nice ironic touch. Whoever wrote or performed it was obviously blind to how sick and twisted it comes across to anyone not blinded by war fever.
Michael: For some reason (probably a liberal conspiracy) I can't seem to view your flick. I'll try again soon...if there's anything at all to the "theory of evolution" (I doubt it) my computer will evolve to the point that it can handle the streaming data.
still dig your vid ... and a belated comment about your bird flu post ... I agree ... und herza link to my some of what rory thinkz of the adminz position onit: birdflu

Thumping The Tub Video
I have made a few short movies. Here are links to free downloads for them all in the order that I made them (as far as I can remember). Please feel free to use, distribute, disagree with, shout at etc etc
The inaugural 'Arse of the month' award goes to our very own Scottish First Minister Jack (Joke) McConnell. He seems to spend a lot of his time sucking up to english politicians and yet it appears they don't even know his name. Follow the link to see..
A list of some other Scottish sites and blogs most of which, if not all, are pro-independence. I don't agree with content on all of them obviously. Some are Scots at home, others abroad.
If you like this site and think it is time to start getting informed here are a few real favourites of mine that will help you blow away the corporate and government propaganda you are constantly bombarded with. It is added to every so often.
Good show guys! Keep 'em coming. Not bad for a first film. Where'd you find that song?
Here are some "interesting" tunes by none other than Rev. Phelps' spawn at the Westboro Baptist Church. Ugh.
