Jumpcut remix
Hey everybody! Somebody did a remix of Karen's video she edited with Jumpcut -- the one with the kids falling down and being silly. It's totally awesome. Check it out!Totally different subject: today i watched a guy who weighed probably four hundred pounds get into his van. Maybe more. I have never seen anyone that huge in real life. He had to squish his belly into the small gap between the driver's seat and the steering wheel. How do you get to that point? There is a continuum, you don't get morbidly obese all of a sudden. But the kinds of selfishness and disregard for those around you... i mean, when you have a handicapped license plate just because you're fat, you probably know that you need to lose weight. You're taking a parking spot from the very old or the injured. Because you have no self control, or perhaps you're into power and control, and your weight is your passive aggressive weapon.
Gah. Now i'm all bummed. So update: i fixed the spigot in the back yard so it works for the first time since it froze back in the winter of '01, (hee hee, the winter of ought one) and put a fancy schmancy timer dealie on it so we can sprinkle the yard on a schedule. Which means, sprinkling will actually happen. I can't even remember to water our cacti, so they have been on the verge of dead pretty much since we got them back in the spring of '94. Hee hee, the spring of ninety four. No, not as funny. Just checking.
I love the video! Haha, it looks like Zane has discovered his hands for the first time with the look that he has on his face.

I agree it’s sad and I felt that way before, but honestly if you sat down with that man he wouldn’t even know how to change his life.
