silkers

silk knickers, commonly worn by middle aged mid-menopausal woman. Silkers were most popular in the late 80's, which means they will come back in style soon.
Dorothy ripped off her silkers when Stan Spornak came in the bedroom.

Silversun Pickups

An American Indie Rock Band From Los Angeles California Who Signed with Dangerbird Records.

The current band lineup consists of Brian Aubert (lead vocals/guitar), Nikki Monninger (bass/vocals), Christopher Guanlao (drums), and Joe Lester (keyboards). The band members are friends who had played together previously or in mutual friends' bands.

The band originated in L.A.'s Silver Lake music scene home of Elliott Smith, Rilo Kiley and others. They were originally called A Couple Of Couples. Their current name comes from a liquor and convenience store near their house at Sunset and Silver Lake Blvds in Los Angeles. In interviews, however, the band often say their name is more of "a state of mind," supposedly from living so close to everything an L.A.-based indie rock band would need late at night. For Pikul, fellow Silverlaker Tanya Haden was enlisted to play cello.

The band's sound, often encompassing multiple overdubs of distorted guitars, is frequently compared to that of The Smashing Pumpkins, while the band members have said they are heavily influenced by artists such as My Bloody Valentine, the Velvet Underground, Elliott Smith, Sonic Youth, Sweet, Modest Mouse, and Secret Machines as well as numerous other artists with lesser publicity; especially "by songs like 'Rhinoceros' from Gish by The Smashing Pumpkins and 'The Diamond Sea' from 'Washing Machine' by Sonic Youth"

Shel Silverstein

The man behind brillant works such as Where The Sidewalk Ends, Dirty Feet, Falling Up, The Missing Peice, Freakin' At The Freakers Ball, The Big O, The Giving Tree, Diffrent Dances, A Light In The Attic, and most recently, Runny Babbit. He also wrote the Johnny Cash hit, 'A Boy Named Sue.' He was an amazing writer, poet, musician, and artist.
Shel Silverstein is dearly missed by his fans.

Shel Silverstein
1930-1999

PUT SOMETHING IN
Draw a crazy picture,
Write a nutty peom,
Sing a mumble-grumble song,
Whistle through your comb.
Do a loony-goony dance,
'Cross the kitchen floor,
Put something silly in the world
That ain't been there before.
-Shel Silverstein
