Music video
A music video to accompany the release of "Greyhound" was first released onto YouTube on 13 March 2012 at a total length of three minutes and twenty-two seconds. The video starts with three groups of people driving to a salt desert in cars and they have each one color (blue, yellow and red). Then the video cuts to shots of Axwell, Ingrosso and Angello putting on headsets in an underground room. The headsets give off an electric charge, which creates colored bubbles around the members of Swedish House Mafia. Axwell is yellow, Angello is red and Ingrosso is blue. The members are connected to three robot dogs; the people in the cars are dog racers. A woman lays a hovering rabbit on the ground, which starts moving, and the three greyhound dogs start to chase it. The video alternates between scenes of the robot dogs' race, shots of the owners that support their dogs, and scenes of Axwell, Ingrosso and Angello leading the robots. The yellow greyhound trips the blue greyhound, which quickly recovers and resumes the race. The three dogs reach the finishing line at the same time. A polaroid camera develops a photo of the finish, which is blown away into the desert. The video finishes with a shot of a bottle of Absolut Greyhound on a silver tray. A longer version of the video is also available.
Greyhound was a grey Standardbred gelding by Guy Abbey out of Elizabeth by Peter the Great. Born in 1932, Greyhound was the outstanding trotting horse of his day and arguably the most outstanding in the history of the sport. He was nicknamed "The Great Grey Ghost" and "Silver-skinned Flyer." In 1935, he won the Hambletonian race and in 1938 he lowered the record time for trotting the mile to 1:55¼. This record stood until 1969.
Early life
Greyhound was sold for less than $1000 at auction due to his awkward appearance. As a two year old he won at venues including Good Time Park where he won the Good Time Stake,Springfield where he won the Review Futurity and Syracuse where he won the Horseman Futurity. At the end of the season he won the Lexington Trot at The Red Mile.
1935 season
In the The Hambletonian Greyhound sat back in the field until making a move at the 5/8 mile mark and swirling past the field to win in 2.02 1/4 in the first heat and 2.02 3/4 in the second. The first heat time was a race record. Reflective of the era, the nearly $19,000 he won at The Hambletonian was to become almost half his career earnings. After The Hambletonian Greyhound won the Review Futurity at Springfield with a 2.00 mile and the Championship Stallion Stake at Syracuse but due to injury he did not contest the Kentucky Futurity. He also won the Matron Stakes and Horseman Futurity. He won 18 of 20 starts as a three year old in 1935.
A greyhound is a cocktail consisting of 6 fluid ounces (200 ml) of grapefruit juice and 1.5 fluid ounces (50 ml) of gin or vodka mixed and served over ice. Salt the rim of the glass to turn it into a Salty dog. Depending on the quality of the gin, the drink can taste very much like straight grapefruit juice.
History
The earliest known mention of a cocktail of this description is in bartender and author Harry Craddock's Savoy Cocktail Book of 1930. Craddock describes his recipe as "...a variation of the Grapefruit Cocktail...", suggesting that such cocktails were already in common use before his book was written. His recipe consists of nothing but gin, grapefruit juice and ice.
A recipe for a similar cocktail with the name "Greyhound" appears in Harper's magazine in 1945 (volume 191, page 461) thus: "The cocktails were made of vodka, sugar, and canned grapefruit juice -- a greyhound. This cocktail was served at Greyhound's popular restaurant chain that was located at bus terminals, called 'Post House'."
Madness is a 2010 horror film written and directed by Sonny Laguna, David Liljeblad and Tommy Wiklund.
Plot
In the wilderness near Minneapolis, a bound and battered pregnant woman is stabbed and stomped to death by a hillbilly named Drake, who drags her body away.
It is revealed to be 1994, and cheerleaders Tara and Jenna are on their way to a competition being held in Minneapolis. Low on gas, the two pull into a service station, where they meet Chad and Oliver, who are experiencing car trouble. Taking pity on the two men, the girls offer them a ride, and the quartet leave, not realizing they were being watched by a one-eyed, Swedish-speaking man, who uses a walkie-talkie to report what he has seen to his comrades. One-eye follows the group, and causes them to crash by a throwing a piece of roadkill onto their windshield.
Drake pulls up to the walking quartet, and offers them a ride. Once everyone is in the car, Drake drives into the forest, prompting a panicked Chad to jump out of the moving vehicle. Drake meets up with One-eye, and the two tie Tara, Jenna, and Oliver up at gunpoint, and take them to their hideout. Drake places Tara and Jenna in the main house, while One-eye rapes Oliver in a shed. Elsewhere, Chad encounters Bob, one of the hillbillies, and the two fight. Chad kills Bob with a switchblade, and follows a pillar of smoke to the rednecks' house.
