So today I had a lofty topic of liking different types of people because I am reading Sidney poitier's book "The Measure Of A Man", and I can relate to it. Yes, I know I amnot a man, I am not from the Bahamas, I am not over 70, and a whole host of other things that Sidney Poitier IS. But we are both human, parents, and a whole host of other things we DO have in common. And that was my intellectual point.
However, today, Jamie, a co-worker, introduced me to YouTube. My wee little mind is blown!!! Did I write how the internet amazed me? YouTube has music, tv, etc. and you can hear the song (and sing a long if you choose like we did) AND you can watch a video to go with. A picture on the screen with moving images. I found songs in there I hadn't heard in ages including stuff by Jay and The Americans, Nils Lofgren, the BeeGees, and George Harrison. I am truly amazed by this thing we call modern technology. It makes me wonder what us humans will think up next. Where can we go from here? I can't wait to find out. If they can get Barry Gibb in those tight white pants, life size in my house via holagram, I will be a happy camper.

ROTFL Isn't YouTube the bomb? Btw- that vid you couldn't watch the other day... just double click on the play button... it also is from Youtube! I love Youtube it is a fun way to waste a few hours... I mean find interesting and fun intellectual things to keep one busy! LOL
YouTube has been my life saver since most of our movies and our desk top computer are packed away. The computer here does not play movies on it and we are short on outlets to plug in the DVD which only plays 3 movies we own anyway so.....Hurray for YouTube. And for the record t-girl, it is not that I just discovered it, it is that I just have now taken the time to look for stuff for me! I used to only watch it if D found something or if I was sent something. Since I started looking for stuff for the little squirt I am starting to check it out stuff for me! And it is way awesome! Dena you should try checking out Cary Grant and other assorted actors, you can catch some great clips!
I have found so many funny little webisodes on YouTube...check out "Mr. Diety" - which is pretty crass if you can't suspend that "good Catholic guilt", but absolutely hilarious if you can find it in you to poke fun at it...I can find it in me to poke fun, so I thought the webisodes were laugh out loud, wipe the tears out of your eyes funny...
KATIE! I LOVE Mr. Deity!!!!
Alina...yeah, yeah, yeah likely story! LOL ;)
