Someone Writes About Something Beside Google & YouTube
Can you believe this guy? He’s writing an article about 10 newsworthy events that aren’t related to Google/YouTube. Is it just me or does Steve look like Brad Pitt?

In moving over my Google Video clips to YouTube I ran into this retro commercial spoof. Like “Woodblock Doll,” it’s another commercial parody. That was pretty much the first 10 years of my video shorts: either commercial parodies or mock horror videos (ala “Attack of the Killer Slinky“). While cleaning up my dad’s office this…
