fine.
I feel like plopping y'all down into an econline van bench seat on my front lawn, strapping you in, propping your eyelids open with toothpicks, a la clockwork orange, and make you watch this lovely video. And while we're at it, I'll pop in the one on Kiva. Kiva being individuals able to loan directly to entrepreneurs in the 3rd world,
how are you people not excited about this? how? how? how?
how can you not want to do this? 97-99% chance on getting your money back, it's not even like a donation, you get it back, think how far your $25 goes to someone that makes cents a day. Please people, just consider it, I know the title is not catchy or scandalous, but please.

The video is beautiful - and by the end of it I actually found the guy oddly attractive. Must be all the happy, happy, joy, joy.
Will read about Kiva when I get home. Interested, fer sure. I read something not long ago about how $25 can buy a villager 18 chickens, therefore, providing income = self-sufficiency = esteem. So simple.

My dad "knows" that guy.. He sent me a link to the video right after Matt posted it and I splattered it all over my myspace and facebook :)
I love waking up to videos like that in my email inbox

that's cool, I just thought it was pretty cool, how it starts out looking cheezy, then you're sucked in with the beautiful geography (that australia one, whoa), and then comes all the people. feels lovey, all connected through dance, same as music.

hehe, i had a friend who's done a dancing video all over the world too...except he's the only one in it I think...if I can find the link I'll post it up...quite funny though.
I wonder how he got the other people in the video, whether they were just watching him and he said 'join in' or he put up a notice or something....
