Every once in a while a strange desire to type comes upon me. It mainly seems to come when I have several other things that I ought to be doing and instead I just feel like typing. I suppose I ought to be writing something sensible but it has been a while since I did a long rambling post so I think I will just ramble on like a still pond flowing into might brook with the green sky over head and lovely blue trees. Actually I hope to make more sense than that.

I have been video editing recently. And made a piece of idiotic nonsense. It was idiotic because the filmed stuff I had to work with was idiotic, the video editing was fine though. I am beginning to enjoy Final Cut Express. It takes a bit of getting used to, and I still don’t know all of the controls but I am getting better at it.

The thing I video edited was a commercial for the “Rocket Toothbrush” (matches not included(that was my line:)) What started it was Andrew who came out into the living and proceeded to say something about the “Rocket Toothbrush” in Ingrish. A few more minutes and I had my camera down and I filmed Andrew in several different places and posisiton saying “Use the Rocket Toothbrush” then Daniel sat in a chair and said in a very serious tone some other lines and when it was all put together(after my filming session, and two hours of video editing(I am still learning how to use final cut express)) I got something like this, and remember, this is all spoken in Ingrish and was meant to be ridiculous.

Daniel”You have bad teeth?”
Andrew”Use the Rocket Toothbrush”
Daniel”Hot new product”
Andrew”Use the Rocket Toothbrush”
Daniel”It clean like no other”
Andrew”Use the Rocket Toothbrush”
Daniel”Simplicity with Use, Action with cleaning”
Andrew”Use the Rocket Toothbrush”
Daniel”For healthy life, why use inferior product?”
Andrew”Use the Rocket Toothbrush”
Daniel”Who need be cool man?”
Me(Elizabeth)(this is spoken very fast while I am rolling my eyes very fast for dramatic effect)”Can cause burning pain in mouth. Consult Physician before using. Matches not included”
Andrew”Use the Rocket Toothbrush”

And the “William Tell Overture” is playing during the entire commercial. The music selection is also known as the Lone Ranger theme song.

Someday I will have to figure out how to put videos on my website, but right now I need to figure out my Algebra…
