I feel the need to write some thoughts down.

1.) Sour Cream, makes a delightful addition to cooked onions, lamb and perogies. I also added pepper, but that is beside the point.

2.) Sour cream does not however make a good addition to watching a new Penske video, edited by Zeb Jackson. The fundamental reasoning behind this, is when you spew the before mentioned ingredients all over your keyboard.

3.) Thankfully, I have a mac keyboard, and cleanup wasn't that big of an issue. Sadly however, I missed the "Virgin" video experience, where every combo is new the first time, the music to entrance you, etc because I needed to watch it twice to fully grasp everything that happened.

4.) Jim's posture in the opening dogfight looks great. He's been working out. Tom Cruise wont know what hit him.

5.) Don't forget, no matter what you hit, Jim will one up you by pure instinct. This can be seen from seconds 1:26->1:30, and 6:30->6:32.

6.) Jim's new hand positioning on Spinning Clipper, seen at :41, 2:20. Looks good.

7.) The Queen stroked herself at 2:45. I on the otherhand, took the liberty to swoon gently, while washing my dishes under lukewarm water.

8.) The combo thereafter, was also interesting. This was mostly due to the "Copperfield" affect Zeb was going for. All the while you are busy looking at those tight dexes, until at once you notice the Dog was literally eating Zeb's shoe, which was why Jim dropped the combo. This was tragic, since even Penske was tricked by Zeb's magic. SPOILER: and the dog was actually chewing a toy.

9.) 3:30. Oh the huge manatee.

10.) The final image, has a backstory that I got the inside scoop on earlier this week. Jim had been digesting the last yak he constricted earlier that day, and noticed the winged beast taking off for flight. He caught the bird, as pictured and killed it by depressing his thumb into the back of it's skull. Critics still are unsure as to why he has the shotgun, and have reason to believe it was the cause of the recent earthquake in Haiti.

Thanks Jim, and Zeb. Fantastic show.

I think it's safe to say that no one shreds like penske. He truely plays to the style he created and does it better than anyone. 1-800-go-penske

I want more
I like to play.
I want to play good.

Isn't the same song playing in the background at Goldberg's old house in 2000 when Ryan first hit all 4 symp double downs in one run?

Total epicness with a lot of reckless abandon! Just the way we think of Penske shred!

Sweet stuff Jim and thanks for making a vid and putting it out Zeb!

I remember watching this when it came out, but upon re-watching it, I would like to say there has been ground broken in this video. Power to you Mr. Penske. :D
