Please Welcome Will Smith… x4
Last night on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Will Smith was on in support of his new movie, Suicide Squad, being released on August 5th. This wasn’t a normal appearance though for Will Smith, not only was he introduced normally by Jimmy once, but he was introduced another 3 times in spectacular fashion. He was first introduced completely normal and then he was introduced again, and again, and finally one last time with it being the most epic entrance onto a talk show we have ever seen! Take a look for yourself down below and let us know what you think!
And We Thought Thunderstorms Were Scary
To be honest, thunderstorms in the Chicagoland area can get scary at times. Just seeing them roll in from the east with those dark ominous clouds can get anyone shaking in their boots. Unfortunately, I think that we may have found something that is just a tad scarier then a thunderstorm. Not only does it involve thunder and lightning, but it also has molten rock and ash along with the possibility of an earthquake before or after. Yes, I am talking about a volcano erupting and not only did it erupt, but it produced its own lightening at the same exact time! There was a video taken in Japan of the Sakurajima volcano in slow motion and not only can you see the exact moment it erupts, but also how it produces its own lightning! I think we should all be very thankful all we have to deal with here in the Chicagoland area that involves lightning are thunderstorms. You can check out the video below!

What’s streaming on Netflix: August 2016
(from redeyechicago.com)
Do you you need something to binge? Because the 17th season of “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit” is coming to Netflix in August and that could probably occupy you for the rest of your life. The streaming service is also giving us “Zack and Miri Make a Porno,” a Louis C.K. comedy show and “The Wedding Planner,” the best J. Lo movie ever. So maybe just make plans not to make plans this August.

Mila Kunis and Christina Applegate were challenged by James Corden to ‘Spill their guts or Fill Their Guts’. Mila ended up having to eat a cow’s tongue (bucket, please). What’s the grossest thing you’ve eaten? -wALT
