Off Topic: OK Go Videos

The following video was sent on by a coworker.  There are two reasons I'm sharing it here:

First:  The creation of a Rube Goldberg Machine of that magnitude and complexity, not to mention precise timing is simply too amazing not to share.  RGM's show how stored energy can be released, and then converted from one form to another. 

Second:  The message of the lyrics I think is a great one to share with students in general.  "Let it go for this too shall pass."  So often we get so wrapped up in trivial stress that we lose sight of the big picture and the importance of knowing when to stop, breathe, and allow life to go on.

So enough preaching:

Also worth seeing is the "official" video featuring the Notre Dame Marching Band:
