This is what cool companies do in their Shareholders Meetings now: Southwest Airlines GAAP Rap

Just ran cross this via Digital Media Wire: "Southwest Airlines’ Rapping Flight Attendant, David Holmes, explains Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) in a “GAAP Rap” at the 2009 Shareholder’s Meeting held at the Company’s Dallas headquarters on Monday 20th" Really funny, and a very unique way to bring some really boring points across.

To me, this shows that:

Southwest Airlines is still cool, and funny
Public Relations is now solidly intertwined with Online Video
People love stuff that's different
You can be funny and serious about business, at the same time
