What Is Hip?

Well... watch the video.  This young fellow will not only explain "hip", but he'll recite the history of this intangible and elusive attitude that is the phenomenon known as "hip". Hep Cats to Hippies to Hipsters.
(I remember, as a kid from Arkansas; once I figured out what was hip, it wasn't hip anymore.)

This is just one short blurb from a series of YouTube videos that are cleverly produced little glimpses into the underexposed lifestyles — or subcultures — hiding in plain site amongst us.
Everything from Sushi Chefs to Barbers, from Superheroes to Sneaker Collectors are examined in these entertaining and illuminating little vignettes brought to you by Trash Lab and titled, The Subculture Club.
(Yes... Ashton Kutcher is the Executive Producer.)

Hmmm... we cruising boater types are an odd lot... maybe...?

It's short and worth the bandwidth. (Skip the add.)

Enjoy

Surf's up...

Not sure if it would be safer as a spectator... appears as if they're about to be smashed by a tsunami.

Thinkin' bout Memphis

The Memphis Beat

Down the Mississippi where the water gets muddy
Forty-four school where the kids don't study
Well they all hang around at the root of Beale Street
Oh gonna dance all night to that Memphis Beat

I'm going to Memphis where the beat is tough
Memphis, I can't get enough
It makes you tremble and it makes you weak
It's in your blood, that Memphis Beat

Whoo They're hitch-hikin' here from California
Ridin' on a Honda from Arizona
Houston, Boston, Kansas City
We got New Orleans and a doo wa diddy

Yeah, I'm going to Memphis where the beat is tough
Memphis, I can't get enough
It makes you tremble and it makes you weak
It's in your blood, that Memphis Beat

Oh I'm goin' to Memphis, yeah!

Well they got people a-walkin'
And ridin' and swimmin'
Just tryin' to get a chance at them good lookin' women
Now we just march on down to the foot of Beale Street
Ah Then dance all night to that Memphis Beat

I'm going to Memphis where the beat is tough
Memphis, I can't get enough
It makes you tremble, it makes you weak
It's in your blood, that Memphis Beat

Let's go to Memphis
Where the beat is tough
I just can't get enough
I just can't get enough
I said I just can't get enough
