And now for something completely different...

It's all up to you.

Compare these two videos. Notice any difference between them? Same song, "slightly" different presentation.

and now for something completely different...

Is one better than the other or are they just "different"? I know what Uncle Jeff would say, but I know a few folks that would lean the other way. It's not just in the approach, but also the audience. Different strokes for different folks.

Or sometimes are things just bad?

 Who defines what's good and what isn't? What's cool and what's not ? (I was going to say lame, but I didn't think that would be cool). One man's trash is another man's treasure. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. What's in and what's out? ...and on and on and on...It truly does come down to your own personal view, doesn't it? Or does it?

Once you realize that everyone has the right to their own opinion and being comfortable enough with yours to listen to theirs, everything gets a little easier. You're liberated to speak up...to take a chance....to write a blog...to enjoy the music YOU like...to watch a movie that You enjoy..to read a book that YOU want to read...to be yourself.

But it's not always that way , is it? You still catch yourself wanting to be with the "popular" people. You still worry about how you're perceived....what you wear...what you say....we're still that kid in middle school that wants to fit in. You want to be cool.

And so it goes.

I'll leave you with this.

Roses are red, mustaches are toaster, this poem makes no sense, pencils.

How do like them apples?
