I'd like to take this opportunity to show that I'm not such a weirdo; obsessed with birds, cats, pranks and sopranos and show the internet that I can, somehow, be a normal guy.
On the 4th of July this year, my family had something special planned. Not only were we having our annual 4th of July party in Richland (Mojito's first) but we were throwing in a twist for one of it's attendants. My Aunt Lynn turns 50 on July 17 of this year, so my cousin Sue had the idea to throw a surprise party for her and combine it with our 4th of July party to help keep things incognito.
So I guess where this event and my being a normal guy come into play was that I helped Sue to put together a special video for my Aunt Lynn for her surprise birthday celebration. The video consists of still images of Aunt Lynn through the years, as well as our immediate family, and some other cameos thrown in for good measure. The soundtrack to the video features Rod Stewart.
I must admit, I'm not a big fan of Rod, but the song we used in this video kind of grew on me after a while. Thanks to Sue for coming up with that music selection, it worked out really good.
So I'd like to dedicate this post to my Aunt Lynn, wish her a happy 50th birthday, and wish you all a Happy 4th of July.
Chapter 4 : The 4th of July that Wasn't.
Oh and on a side note, Chapter 5 will be arriving very soon. Inspiration has been consuming me alot this month. Thanks for your patience (yeah you, thats right, you).

I like Rod STEWART. Forever young is a quality song, especially when played at high decibels...
Good video Chuck. Now I wanna see what you and Winardo were up to at the Michael Debbi Park on Saturday...
