I think sometimes it is confusing when a person who is a little shy or not confident within themselves is given talent, be it playing music, painting, drawing or comedy these are talents that should be shared with the public. So deep down it is a gifted persons greatest fear and realization all rolled up....not sure if that makes any sense.
If you measure success by the amount of laughter you bring to people - then you are indeed very successful. Curious if you ever went back to that house as an adult and if it's still there - or did "progress" take it over.
Great video! You have made me laugh right out loud and then keep laughing. I love your sense of humor and red lipstick is certainly your color! Looks great.
I love this...hehehe Laughing at the restroom story...OMG! You are so bad. But, I might be sick in the head too because that really sounds fun!...hehehe Love those keys...they are really awesome. We're definitely kindred spirits Van. Is it too late to do a video like this or did I miss my chance??
What if we grab our own ankles in a restaurant? Would that be bad?
And, I'm sorry, but did you say snakes??!! ...yeah, I'd have gone freakin' bananas and ran screaming.
You definitely have a knack for making people laugh. I could say other complimentary things as well but instead I'll just echo the sentiments that the previous commenters have voiced/typed.
I loved seeing you laugh - it's a rare treat because you are always so busy making everyone else laugh with a straight face. If i take anything from this video, it is your glee, ice cream and the paint splotches on your "work uniform" thingie hat.
I love scaring people also fake snakes in cabinets fake snakes in hot tubes etc etc but my family and friends arent getting any younger and they dont eat right - it might casue them to have a heart attack I fear.I love the fact you still look at life so fresh and new.maybe its the artist in you probally so - to really stop and look at things .I think people forget this planet is way too full and complete to become bored even if its experencing it from your own back yard
that was really great, I do love your sense of humour! The house keys in Italy are still mostly skeleton keys - in fact the leather key wallets are MUCH longer there. Our back door here has one as well. Something nice about that.
Sick twisted humor is the best! LOL Seeing all your characters in one place made me smile as the memories of the moments I shared with them came to mind! Good luck with the documentary! I hope you get in there! :-)
Great vid. I love all of your characters & enjoy all of your stories. I used to trick my sister into going down into the basement. When she got to the bottom step, I would shut the light off on her & close the door....good times. You always make me laugh and in stickam...well..that's a whole other topic *snort* <3
When I laugh out loud I sometimes fart a little in my pants. Oh, you are SO worth it... Whenever someone scares me I sometimes fart a little in my pants... It's a shame that kids aren't generally allowed to play in abandoned cars in the woods anymore.
I like the fact that you answered the questions that they wanted vloggers to answer. I hope that we get to see you in the movie, I always tell my hubby that you always make me laugh and that you can play the role of a guy better than anyone. I'm surprised that people carry so much stuff in their pockets, I don't carry anything. Now my purse (more like a trunk) is another story :)
Oh and you don't want to jump out from behind a door and scare my mom or you will get slapped across the face. A complete knee-jerk reaction! It's funny if it happens to someone else. hahaha
I used to stay up till midnight and my brother went to bed around 9. Well about the time I was going to bed he would get up to go to the bathroom. So I'd wait outside the bathroom in the dark and when he came out of the bathroom more than half asleep I'd jump out and scare him. It was so funny and he never learned.
I love this video Van. Your characters and funny videos always make me laugh and the serious ones always make me think! That's a great day in the life. Oh wow, I'll bet she did scream. LOL -Jim
Another function of those old keys on the chain might be this--you'll know you have Alzheimer’s when you still remember what those keys go to but forget what all the others go to. Good luck with the contest :-)
I am fascinated by keys as well. I don't really know why. I have some that I have picked up and have decorated the house with them. I like them so much that my husband has an antique skeleton key tattoo with my name on it. Anyhow, a couple months ago I purchased a necklace with the exact same shape of that silver one you have there. I wear it all the time and I love it. I think it is lovely that you have those and they remind you of days gone by. Beautiful editing by the way!
This was great Van ! I never knew that your family bought an old farm house. Those skeleton keys are awesome. We have some of them too ~ just like imagining what doors that they opened and into what rooms they took you. hugs, Chris

you carry a lighter? cool I carry a joint. or a pipe full of bubble has
wild blackberries are almost as good as sex
I bet those keys have seen and heard some things.
