This week’s whimsy is brought to you by ukelele-cello-playing sister duo the Doubleclicks.
The Doubleclicks are a nerd/folk/sister band who sing about Dungeons and Dragons, beatboxing, and lots and lots of heartbreak.
The song below, Spock Impersonator, comes with a recommended accompanying Flickr gallery.
Please share any bits and pieces you have come across recently that have surprised, delighted, intrigued or otherwise positively engaged you.
