I Just Saw This Horrible Video . . . Unfortunately It Rings True

 (Save it, Baby! Count me in!)

So, it goes like this . . .

 

I was just going through my Facebook a couple minutes ago, and I got the link for a very graphic and all too real video.

The subject matter of the video is four teenage girls in a car in Great Britain. The problem is, is that this horrible situation can happen anywhere in the world.

This video has to do with texting while you’re driving.

Since I have two teenagers with cell phones texting all the time . . . well, I took notice.

It’s hard for me, and probably hard for you, to imagine the ramifications of such a seemingly benign action.

Texting.

Just punching letters and numbers on your telephone or PDA.

Simple, really. Too simple.

The beauty of texting is that it’s immediate communication without actually having to go through all of the niceties and “How do you do’s.”

<TEXT> Do you want to meet us at Starbucks? <SEND>

See how simple that was?

Really, texting is perfect for our world the way that we see it right now. And, the way that we communicate.

We want everything right now. Right this moment. No waiting. I can’t fricking wait, okay?

Well, after watching this video, you might agree that waiting until you pull over to the side of the road might be a better choice. It may be that your life and your friend’s lives depend on this patience level.

Maybe, if the Department of Motor Vehicles thinks that you’re old enough to have a license, then maybe you should be wise enough to pull over the car.

I would post the link, but YouTube made me sign in and verify my age prior to watching the video, however I think the people are shooting it all over the web right now. If you go under YouTube and search for “Graphic Crash, UK, Dangers of Texting While Driving.” (You can cut and paste this Video Title into the search bar of the YouTube site.)

I would give you the direct link, but since YouTube made me sign-in and verify my age, I feel a certain responsibility to my blog readers to maintain a certain level of ethics. You understand, I am sure.

Please watch it. Have your teanagers watch it. Have anyone watch it that texts.

Not only could it save their life . . . it could also save mine . . . and also yours.

As always,

Be well,

Belle

Over 100,000,000 videos on YouTube

 (Save it, Baby! Count me in!)

So, it goes like this . . .

 

Over 100 million videos on YouTube. Think about that.

And that might even be a low number.

100-Fricking-million.

Wow. That’s a lot of footage. Oops — Old term — footage.

Wow. That’s a lot it Gigs.

I think it’s amazing that YouTube has come up, and that so many people feel the freedom to be able to express themselves online. Singing. Acting. Reading. Goofing off. Plus, there’s a lot of weird out there, and don’t tell me that you haven’t noticed.

Plus, if I hear the “My-ya-hee, My-ya-hoo” song one more time for my son, I think that a shoot him.

Yes. I know that it’s a very old song, but unfortunately it is stuck in his head and he sings it every single morning.

Let me repeat that — he sings it every single morning.

I haven’t made a video of myself yet for YouTube, but both my kids have and they have so much fun making videos with their friends.

I always know when they’re over and making videos because I can hear them laughing in the other room where they are putting it all together.

The door is closed with a “DO NOT ENTER” sign hastily made with red magic marker. Magic marker. Another old term.

So, I guess I better get on the bandwagon and make a video!

Unfortunately, my laptop… well something has corrupted the sound card so I can’t make a video on that.

I guess I’ll just use this sound card corruption excuse for a while, until I find the balls to make a video for you guys and put it on the net.

Eeeeeek!

Moving on to the next step into the future!

Double-Eeeeeek!

So, y’all come back, now. Ya’ hear?

Be well Dahhhhlings,

Belle
