pam Posted August 10, 2007 Report Posted August 10, 2007 Funny CatsSome of you may have already seen these Funny Cats. This is one of my favorite clips, so I like to see it again.ElphabaI watched that one the other day. It is hilarious.
Fiannan Posted August 10, 2007 Report Posted August 10, 2007 Glenn Beck 5 part series on radical Islam. Really interesting!http://www.youtube.com/results?search_quer...k+radical+islam
pushka Posted August 10, 2007 Report Posted August 10, 2007 Those were great clips, thanks for posting them. Fiannan, I haven't got round to watching the Glen Beck videos yet.
Alaskagain Posted August 10, 2007 Report Posted August 10, 2007 I really think Youtube is great --- for posting self-created videos. Political statements. Editorials. Personally created and performed music or poetry. Home movies of cute babies. I really don't like it when someone takes material that is written or performed by someone else and adds it to their video without permission. Songwriters, musicians, performers and publishers earn royalties through the correct use of their material. Some publishing companies have joined together in a lawsuit against Youtube for copyright violations. So, if it's not old enough to be in public domain, please think twice about posting a link to it. (Sorry to be a downer, but I'm a grouch. ) Edited to add: I seriously do not expect one person to pay attention to this post. LOL.
Elphaba Posted August 10, 2007 Author Report Posted August 10, 2007 Christian the Lion ReunionWhat an incredible story this is. Christian the lion arrived in Chelsea at a time when the King's Road - home to Mick Jagger - was the "very heart of the Swinging Sixties." John Rendall and his friend Ace Berg bought Christian from Harrods in 1969. For a year, the Big Cat, just a baby really, "was part of the London scenel, cruising the streets in the back of a Bentley, popping in for lunch at Casserole, a local restaurant, even posing for a Biba fashion advert."But he soon grew too big for the London apartment, and so John and Ace contacted George Adamson of "Born Free" fame to habituate Christian into the wild.Here is the story of Christian, including his successful introduction into a pride. Also, a tragedy.And then there's the brilliant of Christian and his pals John and Ace after his transition into a true wildcat. Elphaba

Elphaba Posted August 11, 2007 Author Report Posted August 11, 2007 An unassuming man with a funny name, bad teeth and a simple job as a cell phone salesman walks on the stage of "Britain's Got Talent" and performs a miracle.

Elphaba Posted August 11, 2007 Author Report Posted August 11, 2007 This really tugged at my heart strings. A soldier in Iraq got to see his daughter being born in Massachusetts via a video conference. Unfortunately, the funding for this program was dwindling, and I don't know the status of it now.
