You have GOT to check this out.

Read this for 2 seconds. Pause 8 seconds. Read for 2 seconds. Pause 8 seconds...
That's just a small sample of this exciting video.

Do you think a three minute video about resetting your light bulb is ridiculous? No? Maybe? The above video is really just an excerpt. Check out the full 44 minute video at [Link: google.com].


EDIT: Longer than Ernie's posts.


Much later EDIT:
