Whether your message gets across is determined by the presentation. An example:

Awesome Video Saturday XXXXVI

This video discusses an interesting story, a very unflattering chapter in the public service of Monica Conyers, the wife of Congressman John Conyers. I think it's safe to say that she embarasses herself pretty definitively.

Awesome Video Saturday XXXXIV (On Wednesday)

I just saw this video over on Eric Snider's website. It is from Weezer, and it is a kind of salute to YouTube all-stars. You can follow this link it you want to follow all the various YouTubery contained in the video.

Enjoy.

Awesome Video Saturday XXXXII

I don't usually watch late-night television, but a blog posted these videos from the White House Correspondents dinner. Craig Ferguson was the featured entertainment and I think he was pretty funny. You can't go wrong with a Scot. The video is in three parts.

Also May 22

I've already got my tickets for the 7:15 show:

This video is truly AWESOME. That is why it gets its very own AweVidSat.

Awesome Video Saturday XXXVI

From the Mouths of Babes, Star Wars Episode 4. Pretty awesome.

Awesome Video Saturday XXXV

Michael Bay... AWESOME



Ouch. 

Awesome Video Saturday XXXIV

I have enjoyed using a site called Hulu. It allows you to watch high-quality video of various Fox & NBC shows for free. It even allows you to customize clips for embedding, as I have done here with 30 Rock. This clip includes the excellent Steve Buscemi.

SPOTD #136

It has been far too long since the last SPOTD, so I bring you this short edition to get me back on track.

Today's phrase:
This will be a short edition. I have been busy on the SPOTD blog and In Rare Form. Be sure to check them out.
This is from Shakespeare:

Actual:
Brevedad es el alma de la agudeza

Phonetic with emphasis on bold syllable:
Bray-vay-dahd ess ell al-mah day lah ah-goo-day-zah

Translation:
Brevity is the soul of wit.

Lamenting your Lambo
This is an interesting piece on the drawbacks of supercar ownership.

Obeying the Law
I really enjoyed this interview from the Tygrrrr Express with Dr. Walter Williams. Dr. Williams is a prominent conservative economist. His views on the role of government and strict adherence to the constitution are very interesing.

Into Africa
President Bush is quite popular in several African countries. The policies that have made him so popular are in opposition to the conservative principles espoused by Dr. Williams above, but I'm not going to fault the Pres for them right now, and neither does Live Aid honcho Bob Geldof.

Link of the Day
If you were old enough to watch movies in the 1980's, you will not regret following this link.

You're a teacher?

Just try and tell me this isn't going to gross $400 million.



Fantastic!

Awesome Video Saturday XXXIII

This video is actually a little old, is longer (10 min), but still well worth your time. It is the "last lecture" of Randy Pausch, a university professor with terminal cancer. He is still alive, but his prognosis is for just a few more more months of life.

I enjoyed what he had to say.

Perspective

This video is an outstanding example of how the media doesn't present the most accurate picture of our America:



I do have some worries. I worry that Americans swallow the media line about class warfare and the destruction of the middle class with too little skepticism.

Super Video Monday (AweVidSat XXXII)

Here are some of my favorite spots from last night's Big Game:



Bridgestone Tire Super Bowl Commercial: Squirrel vs Car


Fedex Super Bowl Ad: Carrier Pigeons Bad Choice for Shipping


Tide-to-Go Superbowl Commercial, My Talking Stain Ad


You can see them all on MySpace or Hulu.

Awesome Video Saturday XXX

D-day, reimagined on a lower budget. This is a pretty cool project.
