I also recently received a comment from another blog that looked just like the one above..wonder if it is some kind of spam. Anyway, here is a comment I left on another blog with this video... "I showed the video 'A Vision of Students' to all of my kids today and was amazed at their response. To summarize the opinions of 100 kids in one sentence -- "The video was made to show kids how they waste their time doing useless things and should do the work they are given because college costs a lot of money and doing well in college will lead to a more successful future." It took a while for them to believe that it was not their fault for feeling bored and uninterested in school(every class except mine of course : ) I was reading your post when I thought I noticed something fishy — the above comment is from my blog…but I really do not think I left it here..unless I blacked out and typed it as my head hit the keyboard.

Short, powerful, relevant, poignant-- Just the kind of stuff Jakes and I were talking about last night over Ditka's Pot Roast Nachos. However, this isn't the end all, be all. This message will be obsolete in less than a year. Keep reflecting. Best blog post I have read/watched in a long time.
