    This is something I am doing for work. We just got a lot of new stuff in tech wise, and the video program is doing a can food drive by showing short films made by the students and staff of the SKHS video production.

     

    I have my script drafted, but I would like some input. I have attached the .doc file to this post. The final draft is due Sunday... That is how long I'll take feedback, and yes... I will post this video on YouTube when it is done.

     

    Thank you for your help in advance.

     

    PS: I have posted a revised version of the script. I fixed some errors and clarified a few more things.

    My wife gives out candy to trick-or-treaters at the door and she put up a few Halloween decorations but I usually ignore the whole thing.

    I have a feeling that your wife has you go out on the front lawn to scare the kids...

    Nikkei (Tokyo) down 811.90 -9.60% of the value, FTSE (London) down 362.15 -8.86% of the value, and the futures for the Dow show a drop of 550.00 going to 8224.00 from 8,691.25.

     

    To note: If the Dow drops 10% before 11PDT (2EDT) trading will be suspended until Monday. Also, the futures show a drop in oil even though production was cut by OPEC.

    Nun to Cast First Ballot After 56 Years

    The 106-Year-Old Has Lived Through 18 Presidents

    By JIM SCIUTTO and ALLISON HAVEY

    The last time Mother Cecelia Gaudette voted, Dwight Eisenhower won the race for the White House.

     

    Now, 56 years after she cast her last presidential ballot, the 106-year-old nun has decided this election is too monumental to miss.

     

    "I think it's very important," she said. Mother Cecelia, who resides in Rome, may be the oldest voter to cast an absentee ballot this election. She reads the paper daily and watches the evening news to keep up with current events.

     

    She asked fellow nun 78-year-old Mother Mary to help her get an overseas ballot. The problem was that on the U.S. election Web site the birth years for potential voters only goes back to 1905 three years after Mother Cecelia was born.

     

    Eventually Mother Cecelia was able to register.

     

    "And she was happy to know that she could vote," Mother Mary said.

     

    And while the last time she voted Mother Cecelia sided with the Republican candidate, this year she decided to go with the Democrat.

     

    "[barack] Obama. I think he's the man, really. I think so," she said.

     

    Though Mother Cecelia wants Obama to win, she said no matter who wins, the next president will have a difficult job.

     

    "I pity the poor man who will be president," she said.

     

    Having lived through 18 presidents, she has some advice for the next man to become commander in chief.

     

    "He should be like a father, and love his people. And love his people & and do the best of course," Mother Cecelia said.

     

    And if she has things her way, this won't be her last presidential election. She plans to hit the polls in 2012.

    I have some NightQuil stuff and have been eating soup. As for a face cover for tomorrow I'm broke so there is a fat chance of me buying that if I needed for school/work. I am doing some homework... It's either that or keep watching MSNBC, and I've seen it enought in the last few weeks.
