Ready, Willing, and Cable
I'm dashing this off my friend Michael Bates's computer in Tulsa, Okla., where I am on a four-day vacation—during which I'll be joining Dustbury, Happy Homemaker, Dan & Angie, the Gleesons, and others at the first-ever Okie blogger bash. (Don't worry, my collection of Herman's Hermits vinyl is safe; a pal's watching the Eden manse.)
One of my last acts before flying south was moving up from dialup—I now have a cable connection. (I'll pause a moment while the chorus of, "You still used dialup?" dies down.) But I've yet to test-drive my new connection by attempting to, say, listen to three-minute songs that previously would have taken me half an hour to download (like Saint Kansas' "Rock the Vote" parody, "Bomb a Rock Star).
Here's where you can help. What have I been missing all this time? What songs, sermons, videos, animations, or other things on the 'Net should I check out now that I'm a broad with bandwith?
Please put your suggestions in the comments section below. My only requirement is that they link to material that's rated G.
Note: The comments only go up when I publish my blog, so if yours don't go up quickly, don't fret—they'll be up later in the day. Also, blogging will be light until I get back on Monday—but do watch for photos of the blogger bash, which should be up by Sunday morning.
