What exactly constitutes "preparation for the 21st century?"

Posted on April 27, 2008 at 12:30pm 0 Comments 0 Likes

I came upon this site last night and have been thinking about it ever since. Here's a video done by Bill Farren that I would like to show to audiences who've already seen and exclaimed over (or been depressed by) Did You Know or Shift Happens.

Two musical references from the 80's for this one:

Lovely, smiley picture!
