    Hi Jack,

    I never thought of using Twitter this way, but it’s really funny to see how people can abuse from the web :)

    Great vid Jack,

    Yes, it really is true some people abuse it that way. I’ve already had to stop following a few because of it!

    Cheers and take care Jack,

    LOL! This is one of the funniest videos I’ve come across lately. Thank you! It is a perfect visual to the N’Gai Croal’s article in the last week’s Newsweek - http://www.newsweek.com/id/145949 .

    Hey Jack,

    I followed the Twitter link, watched the video, which was great…but then discovered (for me) and even funnier video by Lisa, which is her take on the Republican team for the US election. It was so good that I blogged about it:

    http://andrewgouldingarticles.blogspot.com/2008/09/is-john-mccain-sarah-palins-bitch.html

    I don’t mean to SPAM but this is really funny! Lisa’s going to be a star, very soon, no doubt about it. Thanks for the tip-off!

    Andrew Goulding

    P.S. There’s a thanks to FTR at the end of the post, too.
