I graduated high school in 1996. While I was there, the radio station that almost everyone on campus listened to was 97.1 WLS FM. It was a good station if you liked hearing the most popular songs of the present played over and over with occasional '80s hits. 

I had a crush on a certain girl who was a big fan of The Heights…so one day I tuned my radio to LS and waited for How Do You Talk to an Angel to play. I positioned my portable recorder near the speaker and poised my fingers over the record button to capture the song and give the tape to her. It was a respectable hit back in 1993. I just felt like watching this today so I might as well share it with you.

Overall, they're gloomy, haunting, and endlessly fascinating. I could stare at them for ages. [h/t: Colossal ]

The Adorable Sculptures of Yen Yen Lo

These images are from a series of wall sculptures created by Yen Yen Lo . Here you can see her intricately textured ceramic pieces, looking downright adorable. Yen Yen Lo's eye for the unique and whimsical is delightful. Apparently they are not intended for kids under 16. Fifteen-year-olds cannot be trusted with fragile stuff. Get them a Funko Pop instead.
