This is awesome.  A guy in Cesena Italy - named Fabio Zaffagnini - led an effort to organize 1000 rockers to play Foo Fighters’ song Learn To Fly in an effort to get the band to play in their small Italian town.   Check out this video of the Foo Fighters playing in Cesena in response to this amazing presentation.  For more info on Rockin1000, visit their website.

Powerful message from Robin Williams.  The speech is taken from his movie Jack, that is then overlaid with scenes from his work over the many years.  Great stuff.

If you haven’t seen this, you must be living under a rock. This vid broke records! Candace Payne posted this Thursday, May 19, 2016 on Facebook Live.  There were over 69M views by the next day and over 135M by the following Monday. Since her now-found fame, she’s visited FB, went on GMA, went on the Late Late Show with James Corden, Corden again, been given gifts from Kohls (that’s more like it), and was even offered a full scholarship to a Florida University (SEU).  What a world we live in.

Anyone who knows me that I have a special place in my heart for veterans and am passionate about learning history.  This is a great story right here.

If you’re a student of history, particularly military history, this is one of many interesting videos on YouTube.  WWI Footage.

I’m a huge fan of Band of Brothers.  This is footage of the actual unit preparing for D-Day.  101st Airborne Division, 2nd Battalion, 502nd Parachute Infantry Regiment (PIR).

John Oliver delivers great wisdom once again talking about DC Statehood.   (via https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Z4j2CrJRn4)

This contestant had already accumulated enough points to win Wheel of Fortune, yet she blows the final round...on purpose - thus confusing Pat Sajak.  This was Veterans Week on WOF, and a fellow veteran contestant had yet to win any money.  This rock star - Nura - intentionally didn’t try in the final round so that her fellow veteran could win some money. That’s class!  Well done Nura.   (via https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_DBzNtPaQ4)

A John Oliver bit on Transgender Rights.  It’s absolutely brilliant.  The LGBT communities are truly America’s embattled minorities.  Here’s an interesting article to read: econ.st/1QqLUAB

This is worth sharing.  Special Olympics is very inspiring and often gets overlooked.  (via https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DT_szHzseFk)

This is another creative bit from Jimmy Fallon & the Roots singing with Miley Cyrus - her hit song “We Can’t Stop”

Fallon & the Roots do this bit where they sing popular tunes with the original artist using only classroom instruments.  These versions turn out pretty good, and you can see that they are having a good time with it.  This is Carly Rae Jepsen’s “Call Me Maybe”

In 2012, Carly Rae Jepsen’s song “Call Me Maybe” was the Summer hit you could hear all the time. One of those songs that annoyed people over time as it was overplayed and perhaps too irritatingly catchy. The Harvard baseball team did this bit with the song while in route to a game. It went viral and consequently sparked MANY response videos. For example, you can click here.   (via https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eEWVwgDnuzE)
