around the web...

I love coming across nuggets on the Internet that inspire some kind of emotion... laughter, happiness, tears... to me it's a weird kind of art form that makes you feel. Here are my nuggets of the day...

1. More marriage proposals... one has already taken over the web and I thought I could nudge along the other...



This inspired a discussion with a friend about public versus private proposals. I've decided it's important for the one proposing to know what the one their proposing to wants. There's no point in making a huge public declaration for a girl (or guy) who would go running the opposite direction. Personally... I'd like to add another category public with friends and family. I'm not really into the videoboard proposals in front of thousands of people who could care less, but I like including people who mean something to the couple.

2. The Voice... the new singing show is attempting to make a dent in the American Idol market. I love the concept... but I'm not sure I've seen a talent show that includes singing I haven't liked.

There are a ton of awesome singers most of the frontrunners aren't even attempting to sell the beginner concept. Many have had cds recorded or other professional experience. I was bummed to see Elenowen go this week. I know they lost the battle, but I go back to their version of "Falling Slowly" and the harmonies are so good! Or at least in my world with not a lot of music knowledge.

3. Rain Delay Antics... I've seen videos of teams making use of rain delays, but I think Clemson and Davidson take the cake... so far... Clemson vs. Davidson

I know teams will be looking to do better and I hope Methodist is one of them. We already went after Duke's BP breakdown video with our own breakdown video.

I dread a rain delay, but love the creativity.

Happy Surfing!
