I know there's nothing worse than a blog that doesn't actually generate any NEW content, but merely posts links to other stuff on the Internet. That being said, I couldn't pass up the opportunity to show this video. The creator, Matt Harding, was sponsored by Stride gum to travel around the world and video himself doing this goofy dance - and then see if he could get other people to do it as well. The result is a strange but uplifting little video that showcases what sort of bizarre stuff the Internet can spawn. If you're not grinning fifteen seconds into the video, then you need to figure out where you left your soul.

One more example of "White men can't dance"!! But they sure do know how to market a product (chewing gum of all things)and get a 'round the world trip out of it. Matt has come up with a great way to battle jet lag with aerobics!!
Love it! Makes me think about joy and about shame and about evangelism and about our common humanity . . . and it made me smile really big!
I must say I was surprised to see some of the kids in the 3rd world areas doing some interesting dances I would not have thought they would have been exposed to. Amazing how little things travel so far in this world.
