Video of ECC 2007

Post by Paul Tjaden »

While congratulating Jim Rooney on his scooter (golf cart?) tow system article I remembered that I don't believe I have mentioned the super DVD that he did of this years ECC. If you haven't seen it, see if you can beg, borrow or steal a copy. It's lots of fun.

Hi JD! :)

I can't take full credit for it, it was someone else's idea, but I did find it funny. Even if that wasn't what you were thinking, you have to admit, that pause begged for something.

We were just kidding around.
Ya know we love ya man.

Yes it's very funny. The "Whooo di it" I was try to imatate James Caggney as the Captain in movie "Mr. Roberts". "Whooo did it, Whooo did it ... who threw my palm tree over board" ... obscure reference.

We do need to make a real pimpin hat and give to the person pimpin the most throughout next years Comp. We can "award" it to a different person each day ... sort of like the the yellow shirt in the Tour de France. Although, I may be wearing it most of the Comp I suppose.

You should hand out the first one... a "passing the torch" thing.
