I hadn’t used it for eons, but when I did try to log in, it was broken. I’m so glad that I had the foresight to give birth to a daughter that’s smart enough to fix it. Thank you MP, I owe you a herd of ponies!
My poor little blog

I haven’t posted on it in eons. I used to love adding new posts, but for some reason, it became a chore to keep coming up with new stuff here. I am doing tons of writing elsewhere, mostly schoolwork, but my blog is definitely suffering because I haven’t given it any attention for awhile. I do log in, but that’s to toss out the spam comments left behind.
Another reason I have abandoned my blog is that it needs a new theme. I’ve got one halfway made, but I haven’t had the time to finish it. So I log in, kick out the spammers, throw my hands up in the air because I haven’t finished the theme, then go on to do something else. Lather, rinse, repeat.
I hope I can break the cycle soon. In the meantime, maybe I’ll just post videos when I log in, so at least I feel like I’m doing something. Speaking of videos, here’s one my son found:
Sunday Hymn: Oldest Christian Hymn

You’ll have to watch the entire video to learn why it’s title says it’s the oldest Christian hymn. It is set to the tune of “Danny Boy” by Kermit Rye, who does a stirring a cappella rendition:
Lyrics copied from its Youtube page:
Christ Jesus who, though in the form of God
Did not demand his rights as the Divine
But laid aside his mighty power and glory
And took the form of a slave becoming man.
And yet as man he was humbled even more,
Becoming obedient even un–to death,
And in his death he died as a crim-in-al,
Giving up his life upon that cruel Roman Cross.
Therefore God honored him above all others,
Giving him a name above all other names,
That at His Name every kne – e should bow
Upon this earth, below and above as well.
And every tongue confess Him as the Lord
That God His Father might be glorified.
There-fore rejoice and again I say rejoice;
That all may know that the Lord is near at hand.
(last line repeats)

After watching this video, I haven’t been able to spot laughing long enough to post. Watch it for yourself, you’ll see what I mean:
Still haven’t fixed the broken Polaroid tv

I ordered the capacitors and bought a soldering iron. I just haven’t had any time to sit down and dismantle the dead Polaroid. Well, I probably could make the time if I had to, I’ve just been interested in doing other things. I have to admit, primetime tv has never been a high priority in my life. About the only shows I watch are “Survivor”, “Amazing Race” and “The Apprentice”, and I can watch them online if I want. I have a large tv in my living room, so I can always watch that. But now that I think of it, I can’t remember the last time that tv was even turned on.
So instead of fixing the tv and watching it, I’m trying to overcome my Photshop-phobia. I have a feeling that I am the only person in North America that doesn’t know how it works, so I’m doing my best to conquer it. I’m actually using PhotoShop Elements 6, which is supposed to be the easy version of PhotoShop. I don’t know if that’s true or not, but it sure is a lot more fun than soldering PC boards.

Silent Film Festival: Drunken Larry goes to the market

I love old movies. I think many of them are better than what’s currently offered by Hollywood. I’ll take a film with Harold Lloyd or Buster Keaton over any of last year’s Oscar winners. I found a video that may become an instant classic among silent films. I don’t know if it’s real, but I laughed my head off at this video. Even if it’s staged, I wonder if any beer drinkers will recognize themselves:
