I’ve got something for you:

Here it is, in case it didn’t embed for those on the mailing list: Bee slideshow

Oh, you didn’t know I was a filmmaker? (In addition to being your weekly socioeconomic political commentator?)

I didn’t either. Until Thursday. I was asked to give a stay-at-home presentation for this month’s bee meeting. The topic— a synopsis of the CA almond pollination and the bees returning home.

So this is the result. Wouldn’t have been possible without Jayne and Mason. I’m a stubborn mule when it comes to learning something new with tech. It’s about 11 minutes, and I’ve watched the thing four or five times now. Very proud at first, but with each new viewing, I’m finding little things that should be adjusted or improved. For one, it sounds like I’m a bit tipsy. (Not the case.) (Prolly woulda helped.) And there’s a lot that could be edited, or made funnier. Plenty of funny and interesting things about CA, Turlock, Denise the broker, Michael the trucker, Alberto the trucker, Lafe, etc… But oh well, something to think about for my next blockbuster.

So far, this one’s gotten rave reviews.

Look at that! 100% positive feedback!

Have you ever seen such a thing? On YouTube?

Not even Beethoven’s 5th could match such a flawless record…

So maybe I’m just fooling myself with these self deprecating criticisms of Bee slideshow. See what you think.

It appears, not even the greats can measure up.
