She’s helping.
Just a few things today. I neglected to add this yesterday in my jelly bean rant — and an update on that, the Sudafed capsules were about twice as big as the beans, yet we swallow one and chew the other — so I’ll finely get to it today.
In South Korea there is an Auburn graduate teaching English to young students. He’s also doing a little brainwashing …
Lauren Bercarich, the reporter, is teaching and doing video during her travels. Chris Lowe was a philosophy major at Auburn. This is all done in fun, but “Auburn wins 0-0. Oregon sees Auburn before the game and forfeits” would look great on a t-shirt. More than 12,000 people have seen that video.
I like the view counts on the videos, I always check the number. Don’t know why. I seldom return to the same video again to monitor their progress, but I did this evening. I watched this video 12 hours before this writing and it had less than 400 views. Now, it has more than 386,000.
Let’s assume this is all on the level. Ted Williams apparently has a new Twitter account. There’s a Wikipedia entry and a NY Daily News story on him. I’m going assume that it is legitimate and not a radio stunt. (If it is I won’t be surprised, a good radio stunt is art.) But let’s say this is the real deal.
YouTube just Steinbecked this man, giving a face and a (marvelous) voice to a man trying to put his life back together. He’s going to be on the air with a local station tomorrow. The comments, on the story (and even on the YouTube video!) are incredibly encouraging. A lot of good could come from this for Williams. Apparently he’s being besieged with offers and opportunities.
Two minutes seldom changes a person’s life for the better so significantly.
