Wow

Today I watched The Last Lecture. I looked at it and said "76 minutes? Really? I don't know, but I'll start watching & see how long I'm interested."

So anyway, I just finished minute 76. In fact, 2 of my sisters called at various times during the video, and I told them both I'd call them back.

You might have heard of it. Basically, it's a computer science professor at Carnegie Melon with cancer. He's been given 2-5 months to live, and this is his "last lecture" - i.e. what would you say if you knew it was the last lecture you'd give.

It's incredible. He's an excellent speaker, and an incredibly positive & enthusiastic person. If you haven't watched it, go and do that now.
