BirdBrain’s story reminded me of the summer Goose and I worked together. I posted this video in July of ’04, but without the snipet of “Sixteen Tons” by Tennessee Ernie Ford.
“A mind that’s weak and a back that’s strong”… Here we demonstrate weak minds and weak backs.
Did you actually anticipate not being able to lift that huge beam and put it on camera for comedic relief? If so, bravo! Load up the blog. I could watch that stuff all day.
Thanks for the giggle.
I was kinda hoping the ladders would collapse, but nowadays Goose could lift one of those all by himself.
I think I’ll retire from the blog. My embedded Mozilla player successfull downloaded all 12 MB of the weak-mind- weak-back movie and just stopped with a blank screen. No error message, but no picture, no nothing, nada, zilch.
Rakkity,
That might have something to do with the unauthorized (according to itunes) musical track accompanying the video.
Which day in July of 04? Because I just looked and didn’t pick it out because mine won’t play either (and I hoped maybe the original was still there, without the illegal etc.)
Let me get back to you on this one. In an attempt to get around Apple’s protected format, I played the music while recording in on my computer, and then I pasted what I’d recorded into the movie. It still won’t play on foreign boxes.
