I teach online classes.  Recently, I decided to add an introductory video to my courses to personalize them.  Fortunately, one of my best friends produces these videos for my college.  Apparently, he is not only a good video producer but quite the prankster as well. Recently, I discovered this "blooper reel" uploaded to the "Course Documents" section of one of my online classes:

These. Are. The. Good. Times.  :)

I’m sick and tired of hearing “moderation in all things” when clearly desperate times call for desperate measures. 

Hell is just as likely other people as it is a state of mind.  That said, “ooh baby do you know what its worth?  We’ll make Heaven a place on Earth” since life will just as surely kill us as Death, as no one here gets out alive. 

If to live is truly to suffer and to survive is to find meaning in that suffering, I sure would appreciate an epiphany or two, old man.  You’ve made it rain and I am surely soaked to the skin, but maybe I can’t quite feel the rain just yet for the getting wet? 

Regardless, the blessings of my curses are nearly overwhelmed by the curses of my blessings and I’ll be damned if I can figure out the right rain dance or even remember an umbrella. 

Be careful what you wish for, eh?
