Commander History

August 2024

I enjoy watching videos very much, primarily from Youtube. Ever since I came across it, I had been sucked into the world of video content.

There are 2 types of videos that I usually watch: funny and informative. I watch funny videos for its humor and entertainment. As for informative video, they educate me in a variety of subjects, whether it be in entertainment or in the natural world.

I have subscribed to over 3 hundred channels. With so many videos uploaded daily, I would end up organizing videos to playlists of my own creation.

There are videos that I don't watch on screen, mainly those that I can play in the background when I am doing something else.

If you are interested in history, I would recommend (for now) Simple History. Simple History helps simplify history so it can be understood to the audience. If you want humor, I recommend Studio C. Studio C is a skit show that has a variety of funny videos to choose from. If you want to see inspirational videos, I recommend Beast philanthropy. Beast philanthropy shows videos of helping people, whether that is building homes, feeding the poor, or helping with relief programs.

August 2024

It was the Summer of Disney Animation and someone (or someone's) decided that it would be great to watch all the Disney animated movies in release date order.

The qualifications were… flexible… but if I remember correctly they included having to be a theatrical release, and there couldn't be any live action (think Bedknobs and Broomsticks or Song of the South). After all, summer was only so long.

Also, if I recall, none of the Muppet movies made the list for similar reasons.

So off we went, starting with Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. I don't recall what we ended with. Wreck-It Ralph maybe? It was a wonderful summer having all the kids together enjoying lovely Disney family entertainment.

Two things I remember most about that summer… The first was my ability to fall asleep during almost every movie with a curious knack for waking up just as the credits began to roll. It was uncanny.

The other thing I remember most is that this was not exactly a total family affair. Our youngest son Jon wanted no part of spending his summer stuck in a room watching Disney cartoons with his family (even if we did supply the pizza). Consequently we arrived at a compromise whereby we would require his presence at the start of each movie, but once the opening credits ended, he was free to go do his thing elsewhere. We all remember with glee whenever the movie's opening credits didn't start right away. Nobody watched the start of the movie, we were all watching Jon squirm as he “patiently” waited for the opening credits to come (and go). Good times.
