I know this video has been making the blog rounds for a few weeks now but I wanted to post for those who may not have seen it yet. So true.

For those of you involved in church leadership and/or ministry, his video is funny but will make you think too.  It poses this question… “What if Starbucks marketed like the church?”

HT to Clayton Bell via Brian Ayers and BeyondRelevance.com for the video.

I first learned about this documentary from Evan Courtney about a month ago. As soon as I had a chance, I rented it in iTunes because the trailer looked so interesting.  My wife, was skeptical at first of a “documentary” staring a bunch of 80+ yr old seniors singing modern and classic rock songs but once the movie started we were both hooked.  What an amazing, heartwarming and inspiring way to spend an evening!

I won’t get political here, but made an interesting observation this evening. Take a look at the star ratings of each candidates user page videos (screen caps below). All Obama’s videos displaying on his main landing page have ratings of 4.5 or 5 out of 5 stars while McCain’s videos get 3 out of 5 (or less) stars

Based on this observation, it would look like a majority of the YouTube community is pro-O.

Yes/No?

Barack Obama

John McCain

It’s been a few months since the folks over at Got Milk released a new White Gold video.  But they posted a new one on Monday.  I don’t think this one is as funny as the others but you be the judge.

This is too funny… I included the original 1985 classic by a-ha as a point of reference. Once you’ve watched a bit of the original, jump down and watch the literal re-make.

“Testify in church..”

Thanks Chris via Twitter for this one.

So I was trying to explain to Brin this evening what theremin was and how it works and promised her a YouTube video to solidify my explanation.  I never expected to come across this!  I hand it to the guy from a patriotic standpoint but this is just too funny.  I count, let me see… How many facial expressions?  Oh yea: ONE!  See if you can sit through all SIX MINUTES of this one!  Each melody just gets funnier on this strange but wonderful instrument. If you still haven’t had enough you can catch his 35 minute concert or his many other videos and lessons!

I love these guys.  The opening line is classic.  Enjoy the “economic meltdown song“.

Saw this last night and had to laugh. Gotta love voiceover videos!
