Random irrelevance that just didn't fit into other forums. Talk about anything.

Randy Pausch's Last Lecture

Post by dandymcgee »

This happened a few years ago, but is worth posting today, tomorrow, and for years to come. It is the most inspirational thing that I have ever seen.

Please note that the duration is about an hour and a quarter. I highly recommend waiting to watch it until you can set aside that much time to do it one sitting.

That was fantastic, thank you for the link. Watched the whole thing he is (was) a very motivational speaker.
