It’s like I can’t say good-bye. I guess this is OK, ’cause I’ve
got three full days left. Yesterday, I prepared the videos, more or less, for
Days, 362, 363, and 364, all to leave mew more time to make the videos 365 a
bit more special. Yet, for some reason, I still found myself recording videos
all day at work as if I needed some. For what purpose? Habit? Perhaps I was
hoping to improve on one or two of these, but at what cost. I have two jobs
today, two jobs tomorrow. What time is there to continue to make extra videos
like I did yesterday. What can I say? I’ve got some sort of work ethic, I
suppose.
One thing, I’m afraid I’ll miss most about 365ing is hitting
record and coming up with a song from scratch. Perhaps that is why I kept the
camera handy today. Not nearly as much song fishing (I just conjured that term)
without an Operation 365 to execute. Well, here is one of those; one last
improvised Christmas song for you in the final act of Operation 365 2 and the
final few days before Christmas.
Operation 365 2 - Jefferson Jay – Words – 363 “Fill That Cup”
Yesterday I did an original song called “Fill Rivers.” Here
is another one, an improvised one, named “Fill,” well, “Fill That Cup” if you
wanna call it by it’s full name. I think I may be addicted ‘cause I’m busy and
I can’t stop thinking of ways to squeeze another video or two in as BONUS
without taking too much more time. What can I say? It’s the season of giving
and I don’t wanna stop.
Operation 365 2 - Jefferson Jay – Covers – 363 “Sexy Sadie”
by The Beatles
I am a pretty loyal, appreciative son of a gun. In fact,
that’s the context for this here video. They all become more meaningful as we
approach the end of this delightful marathon. So, I haven’t gone back and
checked yet, but I would venture a confident guess that The Beatles were the
most covered artist in this here Operation 365 2. So, one more of there
incredible jammerinos seemed fitting to fit in before the final on Friday.
My lovely wife, Leanne’s old car, a Toyota 4runner was named
after this tune. I have had some car tumult this year. I had to bid adieu to my
dear devoted VW van, The Tealmobile. I embraced and continue to embrace his
replacement, a Toyota Sienna, affectionately named, Mohammed El-Shabazz… or
Megatron, “Meg” for short.” To me a car is far more than just a car, regardless
of whether it happens to be a van. Our cards keep us alive with the proper
functioning. I am grateful and loyal, even to hunks of metal. Cars have soul
too. We all do. I believe.
Operation 365 2 - Jefferson Jay – BONUS – 363 “Oh Chanukah”
by Hirsch Kopyt
OK, it’s
official. I’m addicted. Addicted to you. Yes, it appears I aim to inject
entertainment into the vein of this universe with an all but reckless abandon.
Yes, apparently 1100 videos is not enough. That’s why God invented to BONUS.
That’s right. BONUS. More holiday hits. More fun for the family. The great World
War II vet/World Series champion Yankee second baseman/Hall of Fame broadcaster
Jerry Coleman exclaimed “Oh, Doctor!” on the rare occasion that a Padre
ballplayer made a great play. Today, with hopes that I’ll stay silent, at least
until tomorrow, I exclaim “Oh Chanukah!”
The Operation 365 2... where too much is never enough.
