Sorry you had such trouble with the S/W. I really can empathize.

SD Thanks so much. All in the learning curve I suppose.

yeah, I'm sure that you are tired of the learning curve regarding animation... but I think it turned out AMAZINGLY well! And I'm a little bit ticked that you stole my thunder, because I always figured that my first song would come with an animated video... but noooo, you and RSDEAN both had to beat me to it, so now there's no "ing" left in my long-anticipated "bling!"

Pat, Thank you so much. Sorry to have stolen your thunder but I have to say it is your own fault because you put me onto this animation thing in the first place! You pointed me to ToonBoom, which I looked at and it seemed like far too much work so I looked for something ‘easier’ (but I guess there is no easier in animation!)

Thanks Pat. I like the timpani. Floyd and Lawrence both said they didn’t like it so there is definitely something skew there. The jury is still out on this one!

I've never heard the topic addressed in quite the same way, so your originality is right up front. I'd be willing to bet that this will be one of your most watched videos.

As I mentioned, the situation has not actually arisen in my life yet but I am ‘practicing’ for when this does actually happen to me!
