Musical Flug 2-19
This tune originates from, George Evelyn, a DJ from England, also known as Nightmares on Wax. All instrumental and all groove, I came across this while walking to the train in Harlem, and while I’m sure I looked like an outcast, by listening to this song somehow I felt like I fit in.
Flug of the Day 2-19
#1 Indiana @ #4 Michigan State
Cody Zeller, Victor Oladipo and Tom Crean’s number one ranked Indiana club takes on Tom Izzo’s always well coached and well prepared Michigan State team. Is it me or does this happen every year? An underrated Michigan State team starts out slow in the beginning of the year and comes on strong right around tournament time….this game will be competitive like their last meeting, but Indiana is also lead by one of the good guys, Tom Crean, and are playing good basketball at the moment. TBD if MSU’s crowd can get rowdy enough by 7pm EST to have any effect on the outcome.
Why Flug?
flug; particles of linty stuff on clothing that find a home in ones belly button
jar; a glass container that holds things
flugjar; a prized glass container that holds flug
The best flug is usually made after hours of watching sports, movies, or listening to music. And the best flug jars contain flug from many a belly. I was a youngster when I saw my first flug jar at my grandparents house. By that time, there had been flug inserted from distant relatives, aunts/uncles, and neighborly folk who just happened to stop by. So please join me in the cultivation of this tradition as we transition our jars to the deepest depths of the world wide web.
This site is dedicated to everything that creates flug; sports/entertainment/comedy/travel, because our flug should never be forgotten.
So grab a jar, dig out some flug, and enjoy
