After circulating through e-mail for months--and then being featured on CNN and in the London Times-- this video clip has become an Internet classic. The video plays Gloria Gaynor's disco anthem "I Will Survive" as the theme for a three-fingered, one-eyed extraterrestrial named "Blit Wizbot." The author of the program, Victor Navone, says he spent 250 hours to produce the program--and his hard work didn't go to waste.

 As a person who claims German heritage, I'm not to happy about Germany seeming to be a member of the "Unwilling" group.  I don't understand how they could disagree so aggressively. But we must remember that their "leader" got elected on the phrase, "NO WAR."  Now he's in a pickle just like a former president of the USA.  Remember when we heard, "Read my lips, no more taxes!" and then circumstances changed and the taxes came and the voters threw him out.   Same story.  He ran on this pledge and now has his tail caught in a situation that there's no solution to.  BUT there's a big movement on in Germany to Support us!  They've even got a sign-up sheet for folks who will VOLUNTEER to join the Coalition!  Check out the web site!  German News RULES!
