Remember to SMILE & LAUGH
Life is short. We all - ALL - need to smile and laugh.

Here's a link to start the thread: Note the little girl who starts everything off with a donation of just one, simple, little, coin...

In fact - Note ALL the people and how they inter-react with the music, from the young girl who climbs the lamppost to the Grandmother who's lived longer than most of us.

Sometimes we forget that life is more than changing oil filters or polishing the woodwork.

Just saying...


James ;-)

Re: Remember to SMILE & LAUGH
If you search youtube for flashmob, there are many and various different ones. All are really well set up.

I must have watched that flashmob piece 25 times and still get emotional over it. Here is another flashmob.

Re: Remember to SMILE & LAUGH
Over in http://www.cruisersforum.com/forums/...ad-145284.html I recently had a bit of fun with Swiss Army Knives. Well, thanks to the internet all sorts of previously "secret" things become available.

Example: Swiss TOP SECRET (precision drum marching band).

Re: Remember to SMILE & LAUGH
Nice thread! I agree with the topic starter, it's really important to smile and laugh as often as you can, to enjoy with your life because it's so short in fact... You understand it so well when you become older, I say it from my own experience.

Re: Remember to SMILE & LAUGH
Image, if you will, a small neighborhood that for christmas sets out multiple coloured light displays on trees, shrubbery, the houses and fences. Say a half million lights.

Imagine a piano.

Now imagine if the 88 keys of that piano controlled all the lights.

Enjoy...

Pro Tip: Play the vid at 1.25 speed. You're welcome.
