All The Things That They Did
The Killers + Coldplay + Bono = A pretty nice little post on a Tuesday.
This happened back in 2009 and the video is a little shaky, but still awesome nonetheless.
To have been there…
It’s great to see how songs can transform with different vocal interpretations.
A killer rendition for sure.
Happy Monday!
It’s Monday, which means the occasional “breaking news” announcement that can redefine life as we know it. In today’s case, it’s more of something being redefined for the modern era.
“Who ya gonna call?”
That’s right, this is happening…
Happy Monday and Happy Future Labor Day Weekend 2014!
From “Jaws” to…
When something is so bad, it’s good.
This is the undeniable truth regarding the cultural phenomenon known as Sharknado. It swept up audiences into a frenzy like the killer sharks swirling around in the tornadoes0. Written, acted and directed as a cheesy Syfy movie of the week, the combination of sharks (Jaws) and tornadoes (Twister) was too much to resist for people of all ages (suitable for the graphic content, of course). Sharks and tornadoes are eternally fascinating and, thankfully, someone had the genius idea (well, the idea at least) to join these two powerful forces of nature together. Plus, who could resist the father from Home Alone, 90210’s Ian Ziering and Tara Reid fighting off sharks swimming around her house on a hill?
And now, the sequel!
Yes, it’s true. The trailer was recently released for the world to see and, rest assured, it doesn’t disappoint (is that Sugar Ray’s Mark McGrath?). My recommendation on how to effectively watch the trailer below after an initial viewing right here at Jimmy’s Daily Planet? Go to 7-11, get your free slurpee from 11:00 a.m.-7:00 p.m. and enjoy the cinematic madness of sharks, tornadoes, Matt Lauer and the subway system in New York City again with a perfect refreshment and care-free attitude.
It’s a suggestion that’s so bad, it’s good.
Ladies and gentlemen, it happened again:
Come July 30th at 9:00 p.m. on the Syfy channel, you know you’re going to watch Sharknado 2: The Second One.
P.S. Clearly, lots of time and resources were spent on the title…
#29
Today is my 29th birthday!
It’s surreal to believe this day has arrived. Strangely enough, it’s felt like I’ve lived several lives already. From childhood to the teenage years to college to post-college and then back at graduate school, there have been ups and downs and seemingly everything in between. In this sense, life is about phases. And I’m hoping that upon my completion of my MBA in just four weeks (4 weeks!), that this new phase I’ve been working extremely hard towards will finally begin in ways not even I could have imagined.
Will 29 be that year? It feels like it might be…
The following video has been posted on Jimmy’s Daily Planet before, but it’s just one of my favorite clips.
A great song coupled with inspiring energy:
Ladies and gentlemen, be sure to “viva la vida” today!
