Videoblogging week Day 3

I was going to do this as a SMIL presentation that plays the different movies in sequence, mixed with some text, but no time. It's going to take a day or so for me to figure this SMIL stuff out... I'll have to do it when I find some time. So here's today entry for videoblogging week. Filmed during my commute home in small bits. I put together a bunch of the scenes I filmed (no editing). It's my longest film so far, it's 2.25 Megs, too large to upload through the browser upload of my MT installation so I had to FTP it.

Because it's so large, it's inside this entry. Yes I know I should use a "coverpage", but no time to figure that one out today...
