New Video: The Mitt Romney Big Bird Controversy

The Trojanpear has a new video on Youtube called the Mitt Romney/Big Bird Controversy. Now, while this may sound like a political video where I spout an opinion about the situation, it is not. This video was inspired by the comments made by Mr. Romney about cutting funding to PBS, most notably Big Bird, during the debates. It reminded me of an old recording I had of me, my sister, and a friend interviewing some of the things we had around the house. Of course, one of the things was a Big Bird stuffed pull string toy. What made it so funny was that my friend had such quick retorts to everything Big Bird said which was not much. For some reason Big Bird was only saying three phrases the entire time even though there was more he could say. We finally got him to say one more phrase before my sister got angry and took him away.

This video marks the first appearance of my longtime friend, Dan the Dragon. He may make more appearances in future videos, so be on the lookout for him.

I hope you watch this video and enjoy it. I will be working on another soon. You can suscribe to The Trojanpear's channel on youtube as well as liking the facebook page or following me on twitter. You can also follow me on my blog. I enjoy hearing from you and what you think. It encouages me to keep going and try harder to get better.

Blessings.

New Trojanpear's Book Club on Youtube

As promised, The Trojanpear has uploaded a new "Book Club" video today. It is the first in some time and this one promises to be the first in a continuing line of book club videos at the beginning of every month. My book of the month for November is:

The World According to Mister Rogers: Important Things to Remember by Fred Rogers

This short book of quotes and sayings from Mr. Rogers is the perfect book to pick up and read. It may be best read in daily readings one quote at a time. Just sit down, read a passage, and reflect on that passage for the day. In the video, I go over my personal favorites from the book. My top fourteen list will likely be different from your list of favorites mainly because there are so many to choose from. I hope you pick up this book and learn about the man who was our "neighbor." Also watch the video on youtube as I pay my respects to Mr. Rogers and Mr. Rogers neighborhood. Mr. Rogers was a great man who ministered to generations of children.

It's such a good feeling, to know your alive,
It's such a happy feeling, your growing inside,
And when you wake up ready to say, I think I'll make a snappy new day(Snap, Snap)
It's such a good feeling, a very good feeling,
To know that I'll be back when the day is new,
And I'll have more ideas for you,
And you'll have things you'll want to talk about,
I will too.

Blessings read-a-sauruses!
