This video is a riot!! Trouble is I identify too closely with it.  Turn up the sound.

 Why can't I see any videos on any of the videos on my iPad anymore?  I just get a blank space on the messages where the pic ore video would be.

Isn't it because they are Adobe Flash videos and the iPad can't do Flash.

Works on my Ipad 2 but I seem to remember having to download something the first time I tried to run a YouTube video. I don't believe YouTube videos are Flash files.

Went to work yesterday morning and all the way there I was thinking 'something isn't right'.
But couldn't place it. Dropped the wife of at her work place.  Clocked in.  got a coffes from the machine.  Walked into our machine shop.
Then it hit me.  I was still wearing my shoes and not the safety boots I should have had on.

But there is a reason. And it is all because we are creatures of habit.

When I rise in the morning I put on by jeans and other things.  Then after breakfast my work overtrousers and boots. Then off to work.

But my wife had left the clean work pants upstairs with the jeans. and I had put them on there.

So I missed a stage.  My mind must have taken note of the pants and assumed we were good to go.
I'm not too bright at 7 AM.

As I said,  creatures of habit.
