Casino Royale Review - A Five Star Reinvention

*****

Daniel Craig as James Bond

Dark, intense, realistic, and all-out ass kickin'!!! This is the real James Bond. Daniel Craig is the most impressive Bond yet! We all grew up with Sean Connery being 007, and he always will be the most respected for the role; but Craig definately proves immediately to be the rightful heir to the throne. He brings believability to the role.

As his leading lady is the most perfect bond girl yet - Eva Green. Eva first captivated my attention as lead actress in Kingdom of Heaven. She is strikingly beautiful and charismatic on screen.

10 Reasons You Should Never Get a Job

10 Reasons You Should Never Get a Job

Though Steve Pavina can trip long and hard on some of his more new-agey essays - this one is probally the greatest of truths written by anyone in a great while. Why work for someone else?!! Why?!

We should all start to break apart the big corporations by starting our own businesses and begin working for ourselves. This article of Steves is to me like that moment in the Matrix when Morpheus offered Neo the choice of pills.

Which will you pick?

Led Zeppelin / The Song Remains The Same

*****

The Song Remains The Same: Soundtrack From The Led Zeppelin Film

This is a masterpiece of the highest order when it comes to classic rock live albums. You can listen to it again and again and hear new notes each time. Side One of this two disk set is my favorite of all live albums from anyone. It drove me as a kid to learn the guitar and dream of being the next Jimmy Page. This is the album they made me fall in love with rock. It started it all for me. And when brother moved out of the house, I had to permanently borrow it and wear it out.

Get this classic or consider yourself to have never lived.

Led Zeppelin / Physical Graffiti

****

Physical Graffiti

This has to be the pinnacle of all their studio albums. And at the apex of their popularity, they put everything they had learned into it. Starting out with "Custard Pie", each song is uniquely Led Zeppelin in sound and word. Though it is not my favorite album, it has the best studio guitar work ever by legendary Jimmy Page. This is definitely a must-have for any collector of classic and influential rock.
