Headlines That Make You Go "Huh?!


GAY PENGUINS BREAK UP

Yup. Apparently this is breaking news.
I kid you not, people. Go check it out yourselves.

http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/us/2009/07/16/bush.gay.penguins.kron

I have ALL sorts of things to say about this.
1. Really? This is CNN news worthy?
2. Wait - this is just plain old news worthy?
3. Who did this reporter anger enough to get this story?
4. Did the reporter just say "switched sides"?
5. Penguin stalking?
6. How do we know they are/were gay? Maybe they were just good friends/room mates until a "lady penguin" became available? (and Pepper lost the coin toss)
7. You've got to feel sorry for Pepper
8. Finally and sadly, you just know some ignorant jerk is going to point to this story and say to their child, "See, if a penguin can change his mind and go straight, you can too. This proves that this is a lifestyle choice." or something equally devastating to a young person struggling to be who they are with parents/family/friends that are unaccepting.

Feel free to share your thoughts on this story.

MATT & LORI"S WEDDING DVD

I have finally finished editing our wedding DVD. I've put the first 6 minutes or so of it below. It's great being an editor and being able to edit your own wedding. Not only for all the money it saved us, but also for the creative freedom it allowed me to have with it.

If you would like a full copy of it, please let me know, and I'll try to send you one as soon as I can. You have to let me know soon though, as I will be losing my Mac laptop soon, a big : ( because it's owned by the college, and I only have a week left there, so I won't be able to make any copies until I get my own. (Which probably won't be anytime soon, being that we are trying to buy a house in the next seven months.)

Anyways, I hope you enjoy the sample. Let me know what you think.

Take care,
Matt
