I shall come over and pay a visit ASAP. So damn much going on…

Gary

Another interesting video where you show off Las Vegas albeit inside a mall, help plug in a fellow student’s e-book and give some internet marketing tips.

I also watched your other video where you are in a bathtub. I didn’t comment on that one yet. Should I?

I like your blog so much that I’ve added it to my blogroll nearly 2 months ago.
I doubt that you are aware of it so you can check it out when you visit my blog.

I haven’t seen you there for a long while now.

In any case keep up the good work. By the time I finish reading everything you have put out many moons if not years will pass.

I keep up on your current stuff and then delve more into what you’ve done before.

Cheers,

Vance

Well, you KNOW that you could have have also starred in my little movies… um, make that CO-starred but you know what I mean.

“Sunday, Monday happy day, Tuesday, Wednesday happy day…” You may be too young to remember that jingle.

“I KNOW that at the next Las Vegas convention there will be people running all over the place filming bits of Las Vegas and doing exactly what I have done. That’s OK. I already have a massive head start. And I already have an even better idea if I get there this time. And “no.””

Don’t worry, I don’t think anyone will be able to *really* compete with the videos that you’ve done – as always, you were the pioneer for this with your short clips giving everyone a taste of different parts of Vegas.

You never know, even I might end up on video next time – probably drinking tea in a corner with my broomstick. Happy days.

Next I saw Mike Ottman with one. That settled it. I wanted one! These little pocket videos looked really good so I went out with Adam Spiel (our driver and all round good guy), JT Martin, Sandra Rodrigues and Garry Parkes to get one for myself.

When I got it, I just thought I needed to use it to film bits and pieces of Las Vegas. No good having something if you’re not gonna use it (like so many things we but – LOL) Anyway, I wanted my short videos to be not only scenic but also have some relevant content so I could use them on my blog. It was just an idea I got. To answer your question Thomas, I guess I’m always searching for ideas to turn something to my advantage in an original way.

Huh? “Normal” person? I’m laughing at that but I don’t really know why. Are you insinuating I am not “normal?” That amuses me.

I KNOW that at the next Las Vegas convention there will be people running all over the place filming bits of Las Vegas and doing exactly what I have done. That’s OK. I already have a massive head start. And I already have an even better idea if I get there this time. And “no.”

Thanks for coming over Thomas.

Gary

Nice move this Vegas Series…! So, how did you come up with the idea to combine such unrelated things as touring Las Vegas and internet marketing tips in the same videos?

And how do you suppose a “normal” person could go about coming up with a similarly outrageous idea?

Cheers,
Thomas

Oh yes… Dar. Good old Dar. Did you have to remind me?

Denis, we actually need the “Dars” of this world to help guide us to aspire how not to be. I’m still waiting for this gender unspecific person with a false website and contact and (last I looked) two followers on Twitter to come back and elucidate us with more critical observation. Yikes! Look at that – 55 comments now Dar. OK. OK. OK – I know you discount the number Dar coz some are mine and some, well, who knows why they are not real numbers in your book? Darlene? Darryl? Darren? Darius?

But enough of Der… I mean Dar!

Really, I don’t mind criticism at all. I’m happy to learn from my mistakes and deficiences. In fact, I love to know when I am wrong coz it allows me to improve. I just need constructive criticism. Not made up stuff borne out of boredom, pettiness or, dare I say it? Jealousy?

Ah, Denis… the TEMPLE. Thankyou. And I shall refer to your domain as the PORTAL. Capital idea, don’t you think?

“Thy Prolificness?” OMG! Is there such a word? I shall have to consult my friend Mr Webster. BRB…

… indeed there is! I should never doubt you D! Actually, I was gonna suggest “prolificity.” Crikey! Ever tried to say that?

Um, just thinking about your question… with me, it’s sort of like this…

… I get an idea, thought, whatever and then a message “better get this down on paper.” Then I start to write and it just kinda happens. But when I get a REALLY good idea then it’s like the words inside my mind are kinda jockeying for position and lining up, ready to come out. It’s hard to explain.

With Power of Choice it was semi trance-like (not dervish or zombie-like). I still have this notion of all these words in my brain spinning around at a great rate in a big circle and then one by one peeling away from that circle and being written.

I just wish I could write a lot faster coz then I could produce more.

Gary

If I may, it’s always a pleasure to stop by here and visit, even with the
occasional Dars (They never seem to leave valid links. Even that’s entertaining though in the way in which you deal with them all) because this is still where we all come back to visit and proclaim our triumphs and tell each other of our latest happenings.

This site is still our common thread. Add the nurturing ambiance of the TEMPLE and “Thy Prolificness” to the mix and there’s never a dull moment.

In reference to your ability to channel (who or what) when you write:Do you hear a voice and then take dictation or do you “zone out” and then look to see what’s been put on paper when you’re done? Both circumstances have (do) happen when I get into writing. My muse is very lazy though compared to your overworked, mule of a muse.

Am I scaring people? You know what I mean….

I’d better take my leave.

Take care,
Denis

@ Hils – You KNOW that I only put these videos up to make people jealous, don’t you?

The reason I wanted to make these videos short and with an equally short, sharp, punchy message was very deliberate. I know how precious everyone’s time is. I also know how damn boring a lot of videos are. I wanted mine to be a good short burst of entertainment with a relevant message (hidden somewhere in them, at least!).

My aim was to give everybody who wasn’t in Las Vegas a good look around at the various venues while still providing “some” useful commentry crossed with a bit of humor. From the look of the many comments and views I get (Hello Dar!) it has worked wonderfully well. But, like a famous person once said: “You can’t please ALL the people ALL of the time.”

I have a lot more videos to share – some… a bit of an OVERshare – and I will be rolling these out progressively over the next weeks/months.

Oh Hils, just a tiny thing darls… TEMPLE. Not Temple. (hehehe)

I shall be over shortly to your most worthy blog. Please keep me and all the readers (and occasional critics) here abreast of your activities. You know that at the TEMPLE you are always welcome to come and tell everybody what you are doing. That goes for all my visitors (even you Dar – IF you have worthwhile things to contribute – maybe you can do another audit on the 53 comments here now and tell us all how many are real, contrived, chit-chat, exaggerated, blog bloating, false or whatever. Oh, and maybe you could leave a link to your blog or website or whatever so that I and others can learn how you do things. I’d like that.)

Hils, thanks for visiting my place of Zen and other assorted ramblings.

Gary
