That groin ain't gonna support itself

My weblog host, Typepad, has just introduced a new feature (FREE!) for publishing video on their blogs.  It's called Videoegg. 

The potential this creates for showcasing the cuteness of my son is staggering.  But first I have to go out and buy a digital video recorder.  Not a minor purchase.

In the interim, and as the first test of this new feature, here is a 1-minute video from June of 2003, early in the morning of my stag party.  I had dislocated my kneecap that afternoon and my friends had taken to carrying me around; this is coming out of the last bar, en route to the late night donair shop down Whyte Avenue in Edmonton.

Nothing like a little embarrassment to get us started off right!  I'm not accustomed to showcasing my crotch this much, but whatever.

Is anyone else thinking "good thing for Si it wasn't the day after Thanksgiving.... with one of those rather sophisticated gentlemen in a wish-making mood"?

All very good, but it Amy going to let you take that camera into the birthing room?

And do we really want that level of knowledge?

But clips of the son-a-grams can not too far off now can they?

I am with Elizabeth on this one, who gets to make a wish?

Of course, if this is what we can expect in future videos, I suspect the Pampers folks will want to start advertising on this site. Maybe you'll be able to quit that job, after all. LOL!

Don't forget you can do rudimentary video with most decent digital cameras these days.

Ha! That's a great new feature from Typepad. I'm a little bummed that my friends and I came up when "video camera" still meant the huge, hulking, shoulder-mounted VHS units, and nobody could afford them. Now that I have a miniDV, I have very little time to do anything with the video I've shot, but when I do it's fun.

You'll enjoy it, but with two little tinies running around, you'll be doing much more recording than viewing!
