Very seldom on YouTube do I find something that I actually find worthwhile to watch. This video is different, it is very much worth watching. Jenn came home this evening and was like Joel, for once I have a video to make you watch. Yes I make her watch a lot of videos, includes video game videos. So yes she has every right to throw 100 horrible YouTube videos at me. But she didn't, from her Management class she brought home a video I must have missed during its big arrival. The video is called Did You Know 2.0 and it is worth watching, that is for sure.

Last year many of you may remember that I created a slew of TV Blogs which I ended up selling during the writers strike. Selling them was a tough but necessary decision at the time and since then my TV watching has actually become enjoyable again. When you are doing something for work like reviewing TV shows, it does take some of the fun away from it, so now that I am not working on any TV Blogs it kind of feels like everything is back to normal.

Well by the time I got this post done it will actually be less then a year from the big day for Jenn and I. Yes on September 27, 2009 Jenn and I are getting married. This isn't necessarily news for anyone who kept up with the Europe 2008 trip, but I don't think I have announced our date, so there it is. To commemorate that, Jenn and I went down to where we are getting married down in Dana Point, CA to the spot we are getting married at yesterday. It was a beautiful, somewhat overcast day, and it was just great to get out and get down there. We also bought our engagement photos which like everything about this wedding were a bit on the pricey side of things, but 100% worth it.

So this weekend I was supposed to go see an LA Galaxy game (soccer game) with my Dad and Brother with some free tickets that my mom had gotten from her work. Well we ended up having the wrong day/# of tickets and didn't go. That worked out anyways as Jenn and I went with Jake and Amy (my brother and sister) out to Orange County for what we thought would be a night of dinner and mini golf. Well one thing I have learned with my fiance Jenn is that plans are only minor guidelines to what a day is going to be. That is really what I love about her, if it wasn't for her I would just do the same thing over and over and over again and never really experience anything.

When Jenn and I got engaged I knew that we would be doing a lot of different things before we actually made it to the big date. One of the first stops on the road of engagement was taking engagement photos. Jenn and I chose to go with Jack Randall Photography  who is going to be doing our photography and video for our wedding next year. Today Jenn and I went down to the Mission in San Juan Capistrano to take our engagement photos. I have never done anything like this before but we were lucky enough to have the owner of Jack Randall and one of his assistant photographers to take our photos today. The weather out here in Riverside looked murky but it was beautiful down at the mission and from what I could tell they did a great job. Jenn and I get to go back down to his studio in Dana Point to go pick some out. I am really excited to go see how they turned out, I would say between the two photographers they had to have taken a thousand pictures.

So I decided that I would spend the day today sitting in front of the TV watching football. But during times like half time or slow portions of a game I decided to go around the internet and see what is new. The two conventions have been the big news recently and that reminded me of JibJab.com which was huge during the 04 Presidential Election. So I put myself in their latest political parody and although I probably should have worked harder on making my face fit better it worked nonetheless. Here is the very funny video.
