Senses working overtime #67

1 !Taylor's surprised face!



I'm a fan but she's STILL a celebrity who, at heart, works the room superbly, as this compilation of surprised faces makes clear.

2 Taylor as the soap opera villain
Great piece of writing this, from medium.com, on Miss Swift as the pantomine villain.

3 Jerry and John



How could you not be a fan of both these guys? Seinfeld and Oliver go at it in Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee.

4 Rogue One




Ooweee baby!!!

5 Be here now



I like many of the ideas in this post - about being in the moment - mindfulness.

Overtime: 
Why?
Finally this week - just a lovely piece on finding your why.

Oliver's Army
Here's an example of Oliver's brilliance:

Senses working overtime #64

1 And a hero comes along



Joseph Campbell had it right - the hero has a thousand faces. Nice medium.com update on what makes a hero.

2 John Oliver
Has become widely known and admired for his own satirical TV show. Here he is explaining English football to David Letterman. Hilarious!




3 Seth Godin
Yes, more groovy messages from Seth. This one is about the signals we send. Reminded me of the
Jerry moment.

 


4 Hollywood and movie sequels
They are mostly bad bad bad and here's why.

5 Legend of Tarzan




I grew up with Tarzan on the TV, in one of my favourite comics and on the big screen. I'm a fan. Fingers crossed for this latest version!

Overtime



Speaking of heroes - here's another one fer yer - I loved reading the Robert E. Howard Conan books when I was younger. Looks like a reboot is happening with Conan as well.

Same fingers are crossed coz Conan has been poorly treated at the movies (and I'm an Arnie fan!).
