If you stopped by yesterday, I showcased a totally cool video someone had sent me. As promised, here’s Part II - The Chosen One.

The animator/creator Alan Becker said it took him five months to put it this one together, and it was a prize winner in an animation contest in Ohio. Like I said yesterday, Alan - you’ve got an amazing talent and sense of humor! This is awesome.

Want to see more of Alan’s work. Go visit him over at Deviantart.com.

I don’t know what made me think about it, but I woke up this morning with a memory of something that happened a while back and it made me laugh all over again. I will somehow try to convey it in my morning message.

Things that are OK to keep on your beside table:

• A lamp so you can see when you hear things go bump in the night
• A book or two … the current copy of Cosmopolitan is on mine, right underneath the book I’m reading, “Too Good To Leave, Too Bad to Stay”
• A bottle of water - just in case you want to stick someone’s finger in it to see their reaction
• Your glasses - so you can see the alarm clock in the morning or the number on your cell phone when it rings at 3AM
• Some eyedrops - because heaven knows when you might feel the need to lubricate your eyes while they’re closed
• breath mints … you never know when you’ll get lucky early in the morning hours and who wants to kiss a fungus mouth?

Ok, those were some things to keep.

Here are some things you may want to put away before slipping off into nodsville:

I saw a video yesterday that was totally awesome. (Thanks Lisa and Kim for the link!)

But I couldn’t figure out how to get it embedded here. So, after some searching around, I think I found a solution …

The animator/creator Alan Becker said it took him three months to put it together. Well, Alan - I’m so glad you did ’cause I thoroughly am amazed at the creativity and overall finished product. Excellent entertainment! OH! and get this, Alan is only 18! Amazing talent, Alan. Amazing! (Did I use amazing too many times? watch this and you’ll see why!)

Tomorrow, I’ll post the sequel - Part II. That’s right - there is a sequel. And it’s better than the original, if you can believe that!
