A lot of people have passed on recently that I haven't mentioned -- plenty of fine tributes elsewhere.
But I thought I should share a little something from Mr. "Tiny Bubbles" Himself, Don Ho.
I heard this cover online the day he died, but just discovered the very entertaining video, courtesy of WFMU's Beware of the Blog.

UPDATE: I still don't get it. The video shows up in my entry when I edit it, and when I preview it (I see it right now above as I write this update), but vanishes when I post the entry . . . I've included the link again above as I did with the vanishing Greenaway films. And now all my line breaks are vanishing, too, though they're in the code and appear in the preview. This is frustrating. Now my updates are vanishing when I try to post them, and I'm having to go into the (accurate) preview I still have opne and cut and paste everything. What the hell is up with LiveJournal?

Can you see the embedded videos in the earlier post that gave me the same trouble HERE?
If you can see all these, I'm really confused. I can see the videos in the previews of my posts, but not on my actual "Entries" page. Odd. Maybe I ticked off a setting somewhere . . .

Date: 2007-04-25 09:41 pm (UTC)From:What's odd is that if I go into "Viewing Options" for my blog, and tell it to put placeholders in for the videos, I get the placeholders, and if I click on them, the videos appear. Without doing that, I don't even get a space where the video is supposed to be.
I'll look at the browser settings, but I'm not sure which one would cause the videos to appear in the preview mode, but not in the final post (while of course, as you let me know, they're still there).
I'm having all kinds of problems recently -- for some reason, none of the browsers I'm using will let me see my Bloglines subscriptions either (this happened last week in the middle of a Bloglines session - hey all just vanished). And here I am on my mom's much better computer in Maine, and I'm having the same damn problem.
I'll see when I get back to NYC if my computer there is showing the videos.
