Weekend Bonus - Not Like The Other Guys

Here is another video blog, comprised not only of motion and picture, but also a surprising amount of hot air.

In this episode I explain, not entirely unlike a young Micheal Jackson garbed in red leather, that I am not like the other video bloggers.

The difference is sure to surprise you. It certainly did me.

WOW, you are right, you are nothing like the other guys.

I just wanted to be the first one to comment.

You have succeeded, admirably I might add.

Dang! I wish you’d elaborated a bit more…it was just getting interesti

What can I say, it’s ADD theater. Without the intermissions.

What the heck were you talking about, just then?

Men have a harder time understanding. If you were female Chris you would not be asking that question.

Plus sometimes its not what you say but how you say it.

I’m sorry, you lost my attention at understanding….

I just wanted to be the third person to comment.

You know, the first one seems too eager, the second is just following along.

But the third, well the third commenter is their own man, unafraid to cut their own trail. A breed apart.

It’s the Idaho way.

Although you are the undisputed champion of blazing a trail from within the middle of the pack, I am studying your every move.

When you write your inevitable book on Leading by Osmosis, I’ll be fourth in line to buy it.

Nice video by the way. You look relaxed.

Comment by Brent

Almost conscious, you might say.

I like it. It’s got that certain something that says, “Here I am world!” Then bam! There you go leaving us wanting more.

That’s the stuff of legends my friend… legends.

LOL

Thank you, I feel so…legendary. Perhaps even mythical.

I think the classes you are taking from Dr. Toboggans is helping you in this regard…How much does he charge per hour?

An arm and a leg, plus a spleen.

You saw my first vlog a few weeks ago, didn’t you?

But in my defense, if YouTube didn’t have a 10 minute video limit I would have gotten to my point.

Comment by Brent
2008-03-15 18:18:14

No, actually I saw it right after I posted mine. I remember thinking “I hope he doesn’t think I was talking about him.”

Too late I guess.

No, I didn’t think that at all. I already knew my maiden voyage was taking longer than the Mayflower. Your post was great. :-)

You know Brent, lots of people do comments, but they ramble on for ever. I’m not like the other commenters. It’s not that mine are better, it’s that I know when to stop.

Comment by don

Good Point.

 
Comment by Brent
2008-03-15 21:35:14

Brevity is the soul of wit.

BTW, how many Jeffs does it take to leave a comment?

Comment by Brent
2008-03-15 21:36:22

I think there’s probably room for a few more.

Comment by Lynn
2008-03-17 23:13:05

Lots of room for Jeffs, but only one Brent please.

Finally a video blog that doesn’t have that feel of forced emotion! I’m so tired of every vlog having the over-the-top facial expressions and emotions that you’d find on a Disney channel sitcom.

You had me at hello. Especially when you lay on the rug like that you minx you!

Comment by Brent
2008-03-15 23:59:01

We all had an enforced training at the Insidious Newscaster Institute, where we learned to insert random expressions into an otherwise soulless recitation of tragedy.

It all finely honed reflex now. That and prozac.

Never got a chance to see the other videos. The recession one is teh funny! I think Comma Girl needs a final line at the end like “Anytime” or “Just doing my job”. But I’m not Spielberg or anything so what the F do I know lol.

Comment by Brent
2008-03-16 00:01:09

I agree. She silently mouthes “Your welcome” but it’s kind of anti-climatic.

Danger Dan would know what to do.

Your lying down position made me laugh more than it probably should.

Comment by Brent
2008-03-16 14:06:15

It’s not your fault.

I majored in Eliciting Inappropriate Laughter and minored in Semi-Conscious Cinematography.

In fact, I’m legally required to wear a warning badge advising people of that fact at all times. Unfortunately, I forgot it in this video.

Please don’t tell the authorities.

Wow…I really enjoyed that indepth video. I like when a blogger doesn’t drone on and on and knows when to stop.

And I loved that it actually changed one of the perceptions I had of you. Due to your Author photo I kinda had you pegged as a Jim Carey impersonator, but I see now that you are really quite sexy and goodlooking.

hmmmm…may have to place you in my “Bloggers to Stalk” little black book now!

Thank you very much, I am pleased to provide a little paradigm shift every once in a while.

Now if you would just sign this complementary restraining order, we can move on to the stage of our professional relationship.

Loved the vlog. :)

I was sure it would be that you werent wearing pants… I’m actually glad I was wrong.

Comment by Brent
2008-03-17 21:21:53

Actually, I was wearing yellow rubber hip-waders through the entire filming. I find it adds a real sense of realism to the whole thing.

And we know how to keep our eyes glued squarely to our cue cards, eh? ;)

Comment by Brent
2008-03-17 21:15:18

Actually I have it more convincing to engrave the script on specially made contact lenses.

It really adds a sense of spontaneity.

Funny, you don’t look at all ominous.

He does look like a comma though.

That mug should be on the big screen! You have the “it” factor.

I’ll let you explain what “it” is…

Comment by Brent
2008-03-17 21:23:19

Well, “it” is antibiotic resistant for one thing.

I think you are going to need body guards.

Comment by Debbie
2008-03-18 09:35:33

Chris would be a good body guard to hire.

I don’t get it.

It’s ok C. Fraser…you will soon…

Comment by C. Fraser
2008-03-18 15:42:35

That was just my lame attempt at being a combination of ‘witty’ and ‘terse’, or ‘witse’ as I like to call it.

I failed…

I thought it was well done. The video, not my comment.

Comment by Debbie
2008-03-18 16:46:32

Oh that was a great comment C Fraser. You even played on the word “it” after I said Brent had the “it” factor. I thought that was very clever!

I just meant that sometimes Brent’s subtle humor hits you like a freight train days later.
