Sheila Says: Felon May Get A Modeling Career

The “handsome felon” was released from prison Tuesday and he’s looking to launch a modeling career. In case you don’t remember, Jeremy Meeks became a viral hit in 2014 because, when he was arrested for felony weapons charges, his mugshot got out and people went crazy because he’s so handsome. He’s already got an agent and offers on the table. I hope he’s learned how to invest that money he will make and doesn’t blow it all in one weekend.

Sheila Says: Van Gogh’s Paintings Come To Life

A new movie is set to tell the story of one of the most fascinating men in history, artist Vincent Van Gogh. It’s called “Loving Vincent” about one of the world’s most beloved painters.  The film will be told through his actual works as if he’s telling you his autobiography. The film researches his life and controversial death. Incredibly, each and every frame will be hand-painted by over 100 painters in specially-designed work stations called Painting Animation Work Stations (PAWS). There are 56,800 frames in oil on canvas, just as van Gogh himself painted them, in order to create 12 oil paintings per second for their 80-minute film. Here’s the unique trailer…..

Sheila Says: New Dylan Museum

Bob Dylan may be from Minnesota, but a museum honoring the singer/songwriter is about to land in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Over 6,000 items will be on display, including his handwritten lyrics to “Tangled Up In Blue” and a wallet that contains Johnny Cash’s old address and phone number. Did Bodb want the museum in his hometown in Minnesota? He’s just glad the archives found a home in Oklahoma so they can include the works of Woody Guthrie and Native American Nations.

Sheila Says: A Drunk In Fayetteville, TN Falls In The Creek

In Lincoln County, Tennessee, a driver stopped his truck in the middle of a road. The passenger got out and fell off a bridge head first into a creek. The whole thing was captured by a camera on the dashboard of the patrol car. It didn’t take long for the deputy to figure out both men had been drinking. The guy who fell into the creek wasn’t seriously hurt. Both got a ride to the Lincoln County Tennessee jail.
