Celebrity

I’m surfacing briefly.  It’s been busy at work and at home, so my attention has been focused on things offline for the past several days.

My wife and I did, however, catch some of the recent political ad fuss.  I probably wouldn’t have mentioned McCain’s “celebrity” ad, which compares Obama-hype to the circus surrounding Britney and Paris, here if it weren’t for Paris Hilton’s rebuttal ad.

Even though both my wife and eye roll our eyes (or worse) whenever Paris Hilton is mentioned…we  both agree that her rebuttal was excellent.  We got to talking about both ads, and our thoughts turned towards a flawed premise in McCain’s original ad.

My wife described a suitable response to address that flaw…and I have attempted to depict that response, YouTube-style:

Yes, I still suck at video.  I’ve learned that converting PowerPoint to YouTube is much tougher than it ought to be…and that PowerPoint is probably not the right tool to create a video in in the first place.  But for something thrown together quickly….it’ll do.
