Its about teaching the old dog that new trick

All my life I have heard "You can't teach an old dog new tricks!" After this year of learning many new tricks I have come to face this is not my reality.

This weekend I learned to make my own video, yes its not professional, its rough around the edges, but you know it gets the point across. So if I can get it on here properly you will get to see it in its entireity.. all 56 seconds. But its a start, right !

Who knows I could become the next Martin Socrese.. well, probably not but one never knows whats around the bend in this life. Change is for certain, thats for sure. Soooooooo here ya go, debuting on Active Rain.....

Ceil has been making video's from the program that came with her Vista computer and burning DVD's and CD's but doesn't know how to get them to U-Tube; guess that's her next step. I'll leave that to her, I'll just sit back and watch. Congratulations on making your video.

Janice thanks for stopping by and commenting this morning. Its good to have companions in new ventures.

Gary, yes we do, and it was very simple with good instructions that was laid out in our office workshop.

Missy, I can't wait for my daughter and her family to get home from vacation so I can show my 13 yr old grandson that I can do what he can do now. LOL.

Carl that is what I used too, the program that came with Vista. It was so simple.

Jul 13, 2009 01:41 AM

John, thanks for the kudos... all appreciated.

Terry, yes, very trainable if the instructions are 1-2-3 not 1-3.. I am simple ... lol.. if I can do it .. so can anyone!

Darrell, I think the next few may run more than 56 seconds... LOL.. maybe. I am sure I will stumble a few times too.

Larry, only 3 steps... lol.. I bet not, I read your blogs and you are way out in front... but we old dogs just keep improving. Thanks for stopping in.
