i guess i will just do a version of this.
whoever else does can vlog it and then you could do a master remix and link back to the sources.
let's setup a new blog specifically for this xmas vlog card.
JD and others with strong blog/media audience can blog it.
Anyone have the First Twins email addresses? ;-)

Hey everyone:
I'm feeling a bit sappy right about now. The holidays with palm trees
and 70 degree weather is really weird I have to say...
I've been verrrry out of the loop lately, trying to keep up now and
reconnect a bit.
Anway, so I was a little dissappointed that I missed the remixvlog of
November (under deadlines) - what the peeps at We are the Media did
was awesome.
I was listening to some holiday songs - and John Lennon's "Happy Xmas
(War is Over) came on and an idea struck me...
What if we all collaborated by lipsynching or
shooting/editing/remixing footage to that song as a holiday vlog card
for the President? What if we all did that, having each one of us add
other vlogger's footage, or making one big vlog video card (or
different versions) which features all of us and send it off to the
President, VP, or world leader of choice. Everyone could take a stanza
- as to not take the whole song and then it could be mixed around. Or,
this is maybe a little too crazy - 38 vloggers for the 38 lines. Is
that even possible?
Now, I know many people don't celebrate Xmas, and many would rather
stay out of the poltical spectrum, but the image of dozens of
vlogger's faces on one video singing or being creative to this one
song seems like such a powerful and hopeful message since it's not
religious (although Xmas is in the title - go figure :))... I'm not
talking bashing, I'm talking spurring on to do better than has been
done... And it would just be great to see everyone working on this one
thing that includes all of us...
Is this just sappiness creeping in at 4am PST? You tell me.
Here are the lyrics:
So this is Xmas
And what have you done
Another year over
And a new one just begun
And so this is Xmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young
A very Merry Xmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
And so this is Xmas
For weak and for strong
For rich and the poor ones
The world is so wrong
And so happy Xmas
For black and for white
For yellow and red ones
Let's stop all the fight
A very Merry Xmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
And so this is Xmas
And what have we done
Another year over
A new one just begun
And so happy Xmas
We hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young
A very Merry Xmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
War is over, if you want it
War is over now
Happy Xmas
So yeah, Happy and safe holidays everyone!
