Love it!

Amazing One Arm Pullups

Amazing stuff! I love pullups - but I can't do anywhere near that!

AVAST!

Avast ye lily-livered lubbers!


It be that time o' the year again!

Aye me hearties, one of t' grandest days of the year is again upon us!

Tha's Right!

Look lively there while ye attempt to speak like a real MAN o' the sea!

Iff'n ye don't I've a mind to tie ye to the yardarm or perhaps keel haul ya!!

The Dirty Dash!!

I'm excited! On Saturday I'll be running with a team from work in the Dirty Dash!

Just tell me this doesn't look exciting!!




See - I told you!

Even more fun... we are doing it in CRAZY costume - short jean shorts, suspenders, and bow ties.
I'll probably make my hair a big mohawk or crazy spiky with some red super gel stuff we have...

Due to the sensitivity of my readers though - there may or may not be pictures in the next few days.
We'll see... Mwahahahaaa!

Danny Macaskill is at it again!

I love derelict yards like this - there is something so hauntingly beautiful about them. Always want to do photoshoots, parties, exploration there! (Previous Danny Macaskill vids 1, 2, 3)

Amazing Freerunning

SO cool! It is interesting to me that while the rollerblader has some amazing moves as well, AND it's basically just freerunning on blades... I just don't care about it as much! (via WIN!)

Beautiful - Fascinating - Amazing - Cool

Pinterest

Pinterest is a lot of fun. (Check out my pins!)

There are all sorts of fun images out there on the web that can be 'pinned' to remember later, and it can really suck you in.

However, I would say WELL over 90% of pinterest users are female, so on pinterest itself there are TONS of crochet patterns and birthday party ideas etc etc, which is FINE, but you know - I want more MANLY posts!

So I've created a MANLY interests board. Let me know if you have any suggestions (and yes it's a bit tongue-in-cheek!)

Also I created this on the fun "Stay Calm" Generator site specifically for my board.

SO Join MEN!

Freerunning Kids

WOW! These kids are amazing - and they've been training with Tempest Academy Freerunning (see earlier post) for LESS than a year! Amazing! I would LOVE to put my kids into something like this - these boys are going to have the whole world as their playground!



"Frank and Max have been training with Team Tempest for almost a year. Watch as the boys showcase their skills in their first ever gym video at Tempest Freerunning Academy!"

Great U2 Cover!

I'm a fan of 30 Seconds to Mars, so I thought I'd share this cool cover of one of my favorite U2 songs, "Where the Streets Have No Name":

Get More: 30 Seconds To Mars, MTV Unplugged, Music, More Music Videos

Nice! (from Jared Leto's blog)

Thoughts on TV Remakes

It seems like that's almost all they can do these days... Well if they are going to do it they should dig deep for those hidden gems that are almost forgotten these days...

Like:

and


I mean really - how can you beat Electra Woman and Dyna girl??

Well, yes, the answer IS in the second video.

Bigfoot and Wild Boy would definitely not be defeated by them... but it'd be a tough fight!!

PIRATES!!! (New movie yay!)

This looks very exciting indeed!



Pirate movie in the style of Chicken Run? I'll definitely see that ASAP!

The Pirates! Band of Misfits

Sadly... we have to wait until March of 2012. I guess I should finally drag me booty out to see the latest POTC in the meantime. I still can't believe I haven't seen that!

Sweet Parkour - Across the City

It has been a while since I posted a parkour vid - so here's some crazy Russians at it again! Impressive!

Inspiration from Will Smith

Excellent montage of inspirational words from Will Smith:



You can do it!

And so can I.

Pirate a Day

Now this is a fabulous idea for a blog! And a daily project! Someday I'll come up with one of those to do...

Fun stuff!

Wednesday's Awesome Japanese Music Video!

Today's videos are brought to you with help from an awesome co-worker who gave me some great ideas.

First off we have Gackt - who has been said to be the inspiration for many Final Fantasy Characters. I didn't think it was possible to get hair like that outside of video games!



And from "The Pink Ladies" comes what I hear is one of the MOST popular Karaoke songs!



Their dancing reminds me of the English Lessons including "I was robbed by two men!"


Three is most definitely enough!

Until next week!

立ち寄ってくれてありがとう！最高の幸運を！

Scottish/Highland Festival

Today we took our kids and went to the Highland Festival.

We even joined the Scottish Association! Clan McGowan! (MacGowan? still gotta find out)



Very cool band. Also very cool that Craig Ferguson played WITH them!

We were able to sit and enjoy them for a while. My wife now wants to get me a Kilt!

Hilarious Kids - Ahh the 90's

ME AT NINE, PERFORMING TO MADONNA IN SUMMER '91! from Robert Jeffrey on Vimeo.

From the dancer:

"I performed to MADONNA's "VOGUE" in the Summer of 1991 when my parents took me to Hampton Beach Casino in Hampton Beach, New Hampshire. A business in the casino at the time gave tourists the chance to lip-synch to their favorite pop songs in front of a blue screen background, and I was lucky enough to partake that summer.

In honor of the twentieth anniversary of MADONNA's "TRUTH OR DARE" and in celebration of MADONNA's upcoming "W.E.", here is my nine year old self paying tribute to the woman who changed my life and continues to inspire me just as much today as twenty years ago."

Thank you Robert. You are (or maybe WERE, since this was 20 years ago!) an inspiration.

Amazing Free Running - Luci Steel Romberg

While watching the newest Tempest Free Running vid:



I was reminded that the stunt girl Luci Romberg is amazing and I'd seen her in action before.

I found this next video and my amazing wife said she had never seen it before.

I could have sworn that I had posted it on here already. So I double checked and NOPE! I hadn't.

So here is her Ninja Warrior stunt tape. Luci definitely has skills!



You can check out more at her website. Awesome!
