This is an amazing display at the Thanksgiving Tower for Project Bandaloop’s noontime show. I’m truly blown away by what these performers are able to do. What amazes me even further is that there are people out there that not only can do this but take the time to learn and choregraph things of this quality. Imagine this being your “job”. What a great lifestyle…dancing hundreds of feet above the ground…along a glass surface….this is just spectacular.
Here is a nice representation of what your favorite social networking sites would look like as land masses and bodies of water. Oh MySpace how you fell. You must have been victim to a Trojan Horse-type attack from Facebook. Imagine a Risk boardgame edition like this, that might be pretty cool.
I’d always opt to be Google…if the news coming forward holds any weight they’re working on a Facebook killer. I’ll bet Sergey Brin and Mark Zuckerberg have a copy of this hanging in their offices.
Who knew that Stephen Colbert was so talented? He’s almost as good as the guy from Police Academy (Michael Winslow) with all of his sound effects. I love Colbert and this just makes me like him even more. I think I’ve now watched this video repeatedly 20 times and it’s still making me laugh.
Well, well, well…after all the internet fame and hubbub, turns out there is an actual Rick Roll. I wonder how much crap this guy gets on a daily basis. I’ll bet he’s even considered changing his name…and after this I’m sure he’ll consider at least changing his email address.
His parents pulled off the ultimate Rickroll before it was even possible to perform one. It’s almost as if they own a DeLorean or maybe possess some sort of ESP. Go sell those tires you internet meme brought to life…I salute you (even if you have a Peter Griffin looking chin). Come to think of it, if his hair were not gelled and he had glasses, he’d look exactly like Peter.
A Jacksonville, FL man is celebrating his 107th birthday at a local McDonald’s with a huge Big Mac cake. This will be Harold Bergman’s third straight year throwing it down at this location. Apparently he really loves his snack wraps.
His wife surprised him with the party, taking him there for his weekly meal, which they normally just get via the drive-thru. She convinced him to go inside where the space was decorated in a surf theme with balloons and birthday decorations. A massive Big Mac cake also awaited the Bergster.
He didn’t stay very long, and I don’t blame him, getting up and saying thank you to all his friends after they sang “Happy Birthday” to him. He was born in Bloomfield, N.J., on August 20th, 1903. He served in the Army, went to Law school at Rutgers University, became a lawyer, and even met Albert Einstein at a Rutgers versus Princeton football game.
He was previously marries for 50 years to his first wife, Marianne, whom he had a son with. He moved to Jacksonville when he retired but continued to do pro bono work for Legal Aid. He has been married to his current wife, Lillian, for 17 years (she’s 18 years his junior, go get em’ boy).
This guy is just too cool for school in all regards. For one, I would love to have him as a grandfather but even more I would love to be this spunky (and awesome) when I’m his age. Really though, even with the advancement of modern medical care, I doubt if I’ll live to see 107. It does say something that he’s still eating McDonald’s and cake, maybe all the doctors are wrong. I do know one thing, if I do each anywhere near that age, I won’t give a damn what I’m eating….and will probably weigh a shit ton because of it.
I absolutely love this message. It rings true to me. If you look at the “great people”, Einstein, Tesla, Hyneman, etc. they all speak of ideas. Look at the average person and they’ll be talking about clothes, football, movies and weather. Then look at Perez Hilton, the Jersey Shore kids and your favorite bitchy friend…you know exactly what they’re talking about. This is probably the simplest barometer for intellect I’ve seen.
I have a question though. My idea is this, what will happen if I mention the things you people talk about? What type of person does that make me?
Granted a guys gotta make his living somehow, but something about this particular fella has me wondering if this was the best route to go. Obviously he’s playing up the whole America thing with the flag and the whole red, white and blue theme, but I’m not so sure if anything beyond that was a good course of action. I’m pretty certain that after this he’ll be spending his weekend on the couch nursing a bruised ego and rear end.
Ever wonder what “The Empire Strikes Back” would be like if it were thought up 80 years before its time? Well good for you, an artist by the name of LesSingesHurlants has produced just that. Complete with pantomime, muted gestures, title cards, and more, this sweet vid is incredibly well done.
I would actually love to see the entire Star Wars Saga in this style. It’s almost soothing in its presentation. How cool would it be if some studio did actually release a new movie like this. I think it might stand a chance and doing okay…if not only for its novelty factor.
