I don't watch the news on TV, so I didn't see this happen live, but it's pretty funny. They spent a lot of time saying jokes and just hanging out outside. The second video with Ann Sanders is pointless; they still don't know the cause of the smoke/fire.

"Ever since I arrived back in Australia (June 15th, 2009) I have been sleeping all over the place. Occasionally I can survive on 4 hours sleep, but it seems like my body just keeps wanting a solid 8 hours; I noticed when I go to bed 2 hours earlier that I wake up 2 hours earlier. I agree with night time being somewhat distractionless, except everyone in America is waking up and being giddy when I'm attempting to get to sleep. Also, night time seems more productive for me. I mean, I do a lot during the day, but nothing most people would consider 'productive'. At least you get to see the sunrise. :P I'm usually asleep an hour or few before then."

""God's hand"... hahaah! Reminds me of AK's Man Hands. On a side note: The YT embed on my Tumblr Dashboard is much bigger than the embed on this actual post. Gosh, it's tiny on the post!"

"Thanks Thina! I'm constantly evolving my craft, and wedding photography was a new challenge for me, so I just wanted to make sure I was prepared. The day went splendid, and I got some beautiful photographs."

"I am so darn passionate about making people giddy and smile, that I will do anything to make it happen. Oh, and candy... yeah, I rock that too! Much love to you and your fam, Owen! :D"

"Hehe. Eventually it will be an unconscious thing; you'll have a hard time not sharing optimism with the world. I don't recall seeing much swearing on your Twitter account. That said, I know lots of people that don't swear on Twitter, but have potty mouths in real life. Swearing isn't all bad though. Here's my discussion on swearing: http://viddler.com/explore..."

"Awesome find, Chris! This is super-helpful for those of us that have videos scattered all over the internet. It's almost 4 a.m. here in Australia, but I'm gonna have to check this out right now!"

A great site for picking colours for websites or designs and being able to see the hexcode, RGB, luminance, etc. Very handy! There's also an Adobe AIR app: http://www.adobe.com/cfusion...

"NETSCAPPPPPPEEEEE! Oh, we used to be such good friends! HAHHAAHAHA! I want to laugh, cry, and throw up at the same time! The only website that existed was yahoo/~ GIFPORN! We'll be laughing our asses off in ~15 years when we look back at video podcasts talking about Twitter and HD video. Ohh la la!"

"I'm definitely not restricting it to Australia. I hate it when other countries (namely the USA) bar anyone outside from accessing giddy fun. I just figure that if I'm organising this, then it should probably be in the country I'm in right now. I won't be in the USA until 2010."
