Public Service Announcement

If you have been asking, "Dan, where have you been all month?" I can partly answer you. A video I have been working on is finished and can be found here. I would embed it into the post but that would be the low quality version and you really should see the hi def option (the link for the HD option is just below the video on the right.)

We created this as part of a contest put on by Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center for its new End Colon Cancer Now campaign. The winner will be used as part of the campaign, so we are keeping our fingers crossed.

According to the rules, it will take several days to clear the pre-screening, then the video will be posted here along with the other contestants. 15 finalists are chosen and the winner is announced by March 15th. Though it is a judged competition, comments can be posted about the finalists, so I will be asking all my readers (oh so many of you) to drop a positive comment or three.

I am very pleased with the final product, and I really want to thank everyone who worked on this. Each of you really came through and I am grateful.

44th

UPDATE: Turns out due to the cold the quartet was not playing live. I wish I did not know that.

I assume you have all seen the speech by now. Instead here are two of my favorite moments from yesterday.
