Velcro is king and belts are stupid

My son has decided that his shoes have to be Velcro and he's not wearing any belts. I couldn't figure out why he was having such intense opinions on what seemed like unimportant issues. Then I noticed that he can put on his own shoes, but only if they Velcro. And a belt makes it too hard for him to use the potty on his own. So both decisions are based on his need for independence. It made me think about what I maybe doing just because it's easier. It was something I was thinking about on a recent video shoot, 2 hours of documenting limos for a promotional DVD, and I was wondering if I'm not putting enough effort into any of my video work, professional or personal.
Or maybe, I need to be focusing more on the video work over other hobbies because I'm rusty. I just don't know.
Well, I'm still trying for my 4 contests in 4 weeks, and here's number 2:


I don't think there is any audience voting, so o e-mails to friends about this on. It's a trailer for the upcoming movie Australia, the contest supplies the footage and some audio and then you cut on your own. My main complaint with the footage was that it was pre-edited for other purposes, which made re-pacing it a pain. Oh well, I could still win a trip to Australia or NYC. A free trip to NYC is less exciting though.

Finally, here is possibly the funniest thing I've seen this year. If anyone has an idea close to this funny, let me know and I'll do whatever it takes to make it into a movie.
