Chickens are another useful animal. besides the obvious eggs and delicious meat they give, they eat unwanted bugs. If you have a fly problem a couple of them will eat up all of them in a few hours. but my wife doesn't let me bring the cluckers in the house.

Okasa,

So wait a minute..My theory says is only an illusion we see the Gifs synch with the music. I mean, how come they synchronize so nicely with the music if each Gif loads in our own computers? An animated gif starts beating only after it is 100% loaded (and loading depends on the internet).

My other explanation theory explores this phenomenon through a magic lens.

I'm pretty sure Frank was deeply in love with Gail and his children. His definition of 'Love' just had nothing to do with not sleeping with groupies. And nothing to do with how 'Love' was portrayed in pop songs.

@F⋚F⋚ (, yeah, but once the gif loads, it plays at a fixed bpm, which will sync to a song played at the same bpm. Or, Ken is fiddling with your optic nerves using some very advanced tech only available to DARPA and WFMU.
