Ame sent me this link - It is a really cool walk through time - all of our nation's Presidents, one morphing slowly, seamlessly into the next.
My only issue? The music. Um, that would be Ravel's Bolero - THE sex song played by Bo Derek for Dudley Moore in 10. :O)
That was REALLY cool! HOW do they DO things like that? Actually, since I never saw the movie "10", I didn't get the same feeling from the music that ruined it for you. I thought it was really appropriate. Kind of a soft version of a drum and bugle corp march.
Thanks for sharing. My 9-year-old will love this!

That was awesome. Lots of crabby old dudes in there though, it really highlights the difference our new President is going to bring. Isn't it exciting????

I also noticed a distinct affinity for facial hair for a while in the middle - from Lincoln on up to Teddy Roosevelt.

Nice video. The music didn't bother me here. I remember the ice dancers from England who won gold in Yugoslavia using Bolero in a very dramatic and beautiful routine when I hear it.

I guess I am lucky to not have a sound card in my work puter, huh? That was amazing to watch though- Very inspiring!

That was great! I was really struck by the transition from Gerald Ford to Jimmy Carter - Jimmy with his big old smile!!! Hardly anybody smiled before that one, then I think they all smiled after that.

That was cool!
I'm REALLY glad for the trend away from facial hair - some of those guys were scary! (check out Chester A. Arthur - 21) YIKES!
