Re: Randy Pausch Lecture Video
ABC news has just said that they will be re-airing their ABC Primetime special on Randy Pausch tomorrow evening at 10:00. I might not normally highlight yet another evening news piece, but this one is exceptional. If you have not seen it, I really encourage you to watch and learn more about the person behind the uniquely powerful message in The Last Lecture.

One of the best slides:

Brick walls are there for a reason: they let us prove how badly we want things.

My favorite follow on to this - Some brick walls are made of flesh.

If you haven't watched this yet, do. If you have, show it to someone else.

Re: Randy Pausch Lecture Video
I orginally watched this 6 months ago and was blown away by this amazing man. When I heard of his death, I rewatched it. I laughed and cried. He said it all in such a positive and unique way. The world will be a sadder place without him but on the other hand he made a huge impact on the world in the short time he was here. My thoughts and prayers to his wife, 2 sons, and daughter
