in the finals in the FINALS

OMG, I don't believe it. I went over to browse a few youtube clips as I typically do during the day. Before I leave youtube (always spend longer than I expect) I take a quick look at my list of uploaded videos. I've always been puzzled by which video gets more views.

In the list I notice this new little golden colored symbol. When I hover the cursor over it, I see the word nominated. Turns out youtube is running this big video contest. Here's the video clip that was nominated:



I made that quick video back in the summer of 2010 after I finished a bag of sun chips. It wasn't the chips or flavor, no the interesting thing was the new type of bag.

Now the exciting thing is -- the video is a finalist for best stupid video under a minute duration.

I can't believe I'm a finalist for anything. But what I do believe is April 1 has always been a believe-it-day for me. So many good things seem to happen on April 1. Oh here's more about the big youtube contest:

Good things do happen on April 1st. It's my cousin and FIL's b-day. One of my friends met her fiance, when a bunch of us went out for Karaoke 4 years ago. ha ha I have thought that about the bag. It's so freakin' noisy but good for the environment. Great video and congratulations!

Luckily it's spring break so the students couldn't get me. And none of the lovelies are around, so they couldn't get me either. whew. Oh, and that bag? That's what the husband does with everything that makes noise. Which is why I never bought him those chips!

So no pranks pull on you? You know pulling a prank can relieve that kink in your neck. He likes a little noise or just being annoying? thanks for browsing by.

No actually I posted this before I visited your blog yesterday. The reason I thought of April Fool's Day in my comment was because of youtube's joke. Youtube's joke which I didn't catch onto right away gave me the idea for this. After that and posting this, I started looking at everything as a possible joke. Youtube spent quite a bit of time on their prank. Oh wait wait, do you mean the noisy chip bag? I did the video back in 2010. I don't remember where I first heard about this bag. Did you do a post on the chip bag?
