Istanbul, not Constantinople


The Pope is in Turkey and They Might Be Giants tune 'Istanbul, not Constantinople' is running through my mind, now it can run through yours. This may be the funniest video ever made, and this is for our old pals Sean and Gordo.
My wife reminds me that Greg is the guy with the owls. I don't make owls.

Excellent musical choice, Gary! The Trans-Siberian Christmas album is coming on our trip on the ipod with us ... TMBG, too of course ....

Greg, what if I made some owl teapots, would you run off screaming?
Gordo, stay tuned, maybe a couple of those videos tomorrow morning.

Super cool. These teapots remind me of Alice in Wonderland.

I once told my mother that I loved irises. I had iris dishes and towels and pictures and you name it coming out of my ears for years until I finally told her, I'm sick of those. Please please stop.

Maggie, I bet that was why you moved to a new country.

I sorta new to clear something up here: these guys are, ahem, sugarbowls. It isn't a great picture, and they are a bit wild...
