This is criminal. It’s as objectionable as the ghost runner. Why fix what isn’t broken.

On April 16, 1932- "The Music Box" was released in the USA... went on to win an Academy Award and became the most beloved and well-known film of Laurel and Hardy.
Do you remember the first time you saw this film?

We need more celebrities like Shaq!

[VisionaryVoid @VisionaryVoid]

The $40 Million Decision Shaq Walked Away From.

In the 1990s, Shaquille O’Neal had a major endorsement deal with Reebok. His signature shoes sold for well over $100 a pair.

One day after a game, a woman approached him outside the arena and told him his shoes were too expensive for kids in struggling families. That single comment changed everything.

Shaq walked away from a reported $40 million contract extension with Reebok. Instead, he partnered with Walmart to create an affordable sneaker line simply called “Shaq.”

To make sure the shoes still looked and felt premium, he brought in former Reebok designers to help engineer the collection. Priced around $20, the “Shaq” sneakers became a massive success.

To date, more than 400 million pairs have been sold worldwide.

Shaq could have kept cashing huge checks for luxury sneakers. Instead, he chose to make sure every kid who looked up to him could actually afford a pair.

One of my favorites. L & H could destroy anything.

A pane-ful situation with Mr Laurel and Mr Hardy in a bit from 1933 and "Busy Bodies"........

The champ is Seinfeld which inserted updated or new products into its rerun package so it could collect new product placement money. Other shows have done it too.

Great autobiography. I loved him as Johnny Guitar and Capt. McCluskey in The Godfather.

Celebrating Sterling Hayden, #BOTD with one of the most ironic endings in Film Noir - his brilliant turn in "The Killing"...a suitcase stuffed with millions, and so excruciatingly close to getting away with it all..

[mrshboom @JohnComas1]

A great movie!
