Message to My Email-Feed Readers

My posts go out in one of two ways — as an immediate Feed, or the next morning via email.  Which means you often don’t click on to the site itself.  That works… relative to yesterday’s post, it didn’t.

When I received the post via email this morning (yes, I subscribe to my own blog… wouldn’t you?), I quickly noticed the most important – and fun – part wasn’t there.  Not even a gobbled remnant of the code, which sometimes happens… it was skipped altogether.

That’s like someone stealing the steak that left the kitchen on a sizzling platter… the main course never made it to the table.

So here it is… a hilarious video summarizing The Hero’s Journey, with Jerseyesque narration worthy of Andrew Dice Clay.  It’s surprisingly informative and cleverly written and performed.  The link will take you to the post on the site, where the video (halfway down) awaits.  Worth the five minutes it takes.

Also, as an epilogue… you’ll notice the title refers to Saturday morning… that’s a reference to the fact that the video uses puppets, and thus, a connection to Saturday morning television.  But not everyone gets even simple social glibness like this.

Then I got an email yesterday, from someone saying this: “I just received your latest post entitled Saturday Morning Version of The Hero’s Journey.  But it’s WEDNESDAY.  Get your shit together, dude.”

You can swim with the sharks, or drown with the idiots.

Thanks for reading my stuff.
