Dude singing deserves a raise for bringing awareness to this merger. I have seen this plastered all over the internets from yesterday.
Ok, I'm not letting this thread die. I have watched this about 5 times now and it just gets better and better, and I even haven't started drinking yet. This is great!
Ok, I just watched it again with my wife after a few beers. I couldn't convince her that it wasn't a joke. She is such a nerd that she genuinely liked it. Btw, this video is an excellent example of why I dont fit into the corporate world and church.
Like Harry Potter? I have no idea what you mean. I sent this video to a buddy and he sent me this Lou Reed one back. I'm not sure why but it kind of makes sense. <object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,0,0" width="415" height="347" id="browser" style="padding:0;margin:0"><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /><param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><param name="movie" value="http://uncutvideo.aol.com/v0.6/uc_videoplayer.swf" /><param name="FlashVars" value="assetURL=http://pdl.stream.aol.com/aol/us/cvn/2006/11/9/f0aea73eb68b29ab0f677b0d8dbdcea6_dl.flv&duration=418&showExpandButton=false&expandFunctionID=expandVideo&assetID=f0aea73eb68b29ab0f677b0d8dbdcea6&wmurl=http://uncutvideo.aol.com/&pol=true&mvvis=true&mvurl=http://uncutvideo.aol.com/"/><param name="quality" value="high" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF" /><embed src="http://uncutvideo.aol.com/v0.6/uc_videoplayer.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#cccccc" wmode="transparent" FlashVars="assetURL=http://pdl.stream.aol.com/aol/us/cvn/2006/11/9/f0aea73eb68b29ab0f677b0d8dbdcea6_dl.flv&duration=418&showExpandButton=false&expandFunctionID=expandVideo&assetID=f0aea73eb68b29ab0f677b0d8dbdcea6&wmurl=http://uncutvideo.aol.com/&pol=true&mvvis=true&mvurl=http://uncutvideo.aol.com/" width="415" height="347" name="browser" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="always" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed></object>
I've learned lot's of hippies owned owl's in their time. It was once thought that the Owl, much like the Eagle, would be the symbol of the Democratic hippie party, mainly due to the fact that they still refuse to recognize the donkey. And your video doesn't work. Let me ask you: Are you a member of the U.A.L., or the U.A.A., or the A.A.A.? Quite frankly, if I don't know, I'm not sure that your logic is fully correct.
Hmmm. I am still confused. I have been called many things, but I don't think I have been called a hippie before. I do own a turtle, and tomorrow I will be adopting a rabbit. Does that count? But I think I am beginning to understand. It's not just hippies that you have such a disdain for. No, it is more that that. It's people who are able think just a tad deeply and who are smarter than you. It's for people who think beauty exists in the world besides Sports Center and fake boobs. It's for people who enjoy music outside Hootie and the Blowfish cover bands. It for people who dare wander outside realm of the "Cheaters® WB" culture. It's for those who are not afraid to be truly absurd. You don't understand these people, so even though you kind of try to be like them in your own way, you fear them. It's only natural. Fatty, we all know your heart-tugging story of being abandoned by your parents at the age of eight, only to be raised in the forest by a wild roaming pack of frat guys. Growing up in a hut made out of flip-flops and chicken wings must of been hard. It is courageous and commendable indeed. But it's time for you to expand a little. You might try taking some art appreciation classes at your local community college, or just reading a book would be a good start. Listen to some Jimi Hendrix, like all of Electric Ladyland. It can cure many things. But actually you and I have something in common. We both like to have a drink now and then. Where you might find me hanging out in my long time friend's homemade garage bar drinking cheap beer and talking about everything under the sun while enjoying the company of truly creative, individualistic, funny people. You will be found in the safety of your franchised Disneyland virtual pub, surrounded by dumbbell girls in scrunchy cowboy hats, frat men, drinking six dollar beers while trying to emulate your two greatest heroes: George W Bush and Joey from Friends. So don't fear, your world is still here. It always will be, even if appearances change. And the Lou Reed video is working for me, but here is the link if you cant seet it and were truly interested: http://uncutvideo.aol.com/search/relevant/f0aea73eb68b29ab0f677b0d8dbdcea6?value=lou reed&index=0 And here is some more "Hippie music" for ya. I know these Youtube links work for sure. This ones for you. <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/qcgKyruRqr4"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/qcgKyruRqr4" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object> I want to be different I want to make you see I want to make you wonder Is it you or is it me?
