For this Sunday night, I ain’t got nothing!
Well, nothing except this vintage Sesame Street clip, with Kermit the Frog doing his reporter gig from the studio of master songwriter Don Music, as Music bangs his head on the piano in frustration over his latest work…
This video made my day! While at Disneyland with her family Sariah Gallego got picked to jump on the stage of the Jedi Training Academy feature. But this was one girl who wasn’t satisfied with being a mere Padawan learner! No, she wanted something… more. She wanted to follow her passion. Even if that meant turning to the Dark Side of the Force.
And so in front of everybody including no less a person than Mace Windu, Sariah swore allegiance to Darth Vader and became his Sith apprentice! Behold the video…
Don’t know what else to say but… you go girl!! 🙂...
And I hope to have Part 6 of Being Bipolar up by the weekend 🙂...
Very, very disturbing (yet funny) trend I’ve caught lately happening on the Intertubes. Some clever chaps are taking 1982’s beloved film E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial and giving it the Frank Miller/The Dark Knight Returns treatment. Namely, producing faux trailers for grim, dark sequels to E.T.
And so far I’ve found two of these pieces of work!
This first one splices together footage from E.T. with another Steven Spielberg movie, War of the Worlds. Here is E.T. Returns…
Not bad! I like how it takes Tom Cruise’s character from War of the Worlds and turns him into the older Elliot.
But the trailer for E.T.-X, made with overwhelmingly original footage, is so crazy insanely ludicrously… AHHHH just see for yourself! If E.T. didn’t scare you at the theater before, it sure will now!
Michael Bay should team up with Spielberg and make that ‘un after he finishes this ...

Edit 02/14/2011 2:18 pm EST: A friend let me borrow a book not long ago. It’s called When God Winks At You. It’s filled with stories of many people – including a number of celebrities – who experienced extraordinary coincidences and twists of fate that made them realize something: that God is watching over us. It’s a very good book, and it written in a style that reads pretty quickly.
Ever since reading it, I have been praying that God might wink at me, too. And give me that personal assurance that “Chris, I know you are going through a very dark and difficult time. But I love you! I won’t quit on you or abandon you. You are My child and ...
I was wondering over the weekend if this might happen. And unfortunately, it has now. I am writing and posting this video during a bipolar depressive episode.
I need to reiterate something: managing bipolar disorder doesn’t mean that I’m going to be totally free of its effects. There will be times when I go through episodes of severe bipolar. But I am thankful that it doesn’t have to ruin my life as it has before.
I said last week in the first Being Bipolar video supplement that I intended to document a bipolar episode if and when it happened. This is the first bipolar depressive episode that I have been able to record. I don’t think there’s anything in this clip that most people would at all consider “disturbing” but, I wanted to give a heads-up about all the same…
And Part 4 of Being Bipolar should be up later ...
