Don Logan Rants on Live Aid

I was just looking for a particular quote by Don Logan from Sexy Beast as I bumped into these three videos that Ben Kingsley did to benefit Live Aid. He rants, Don Logan style, about feeding starving children in Africa, and they’re awesome. I think to get the full effect of how great they are you should really have seen the film. Anyway, you can watch them below. Enjoy!

I never did find that quote.

“Sorry, bro, he Jason Bourned me!”

The season ending episode of Entourage was awesome. Matt Damon was in there, and gave a great performance as he hounds Vince to get him to donate to onexone.org, a foundation to help children. For those who saw it, I hope you waited until after the credits, where there was an extra scene with just Damon in it, leaving hysterical messages on Vince’s voicemail. It was awesome! There was also an extra clip that didn’t make it into the episode, and both were released on YouTube, so check ’em out below. :)

PostSecret and Me

Or rather, “PostSecret and !Me”, or “Why I don’t read PostSecret.” While some of these little micro-confessions are lovely, endearing, heart-warming, optimistic and cute, the elation I feel when I read those are nothing compared how much it tears me up when I read one that hits too close to home.

Quote:
I recently realised that I prayed more frequently at SEC sporting events than when my father was dying. Pop, it wasn’t because I didn’t care. I didn’t want to believe you weren’t invincible. You were my hero.

And then I think; it’s not worth it. I can’t keeping reading this and letting it upset me, even though secretly I wish I was strong enough to let it upset me and remind me of what and who I’ve lost, and how much they meant to me. If you think you’re strong enough, enjoy!

The Day the Dollar Fell

Anyone who knows me knows that I love the Dutch television program Tegenlicht, or Backlight, as it’s translated. One of the best episodes I’ve seen was The Day the Dollar Fell, aired in 2005, which they finally subbed in English and put on YouTube. You can watch it here.
