Post Stuff: The Inaugural Video

Gentlemen. Ladies. Welcome to the fantastic and fabulous concoction of one Mr. E-rock Kursman.

I know I already bookmarked and favorited this page. Why? Because this is a grand opportunity for modern communication. As the simple philosophies state, this site's all about Collaboration, Conversation and Challenge. Well, seeing as it's my civic duty to challenge people into having conversations with me, I present this inaugural nugget: The first video post... on this blog.
Think about it.

In it's own, oddball way, this clip from "Ed Wood" says it all about this site. They work together. The challenge each other. They discuss ideas with other.

Yes, that's pushing it...

But damnit, I'm on first. What do you got?
