http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=42E2fAWM6rA This is an amazing message... You must watch to the end. At a meeting of the AARP (American Association of Retired People) they showed a video that was submitted in a contest by a 20 year old. The contest was Titled 'u @ 50'. This video won second place. When they showed it, everyone in the room was awe-struck and broke into spontaneous applause. So simple and yet so brilliant. (This is cool- I wonder what won first place?) |

Stunning and excellent. Thanks for sharing it, Rick. It is extremely difficult to write something that reads forwards and backwards and still makes sense, much less reads completely differently in both directions. I ran a Challenge on it once, and not many participated. Like you, I do wonder what won first place. This one certainly would have won top honors in my book. Love, M |
