Now that THAT'S out of the way, on to my equally relevant and important comment:
I've been rollerblading for years, and still have yet to master the whirly-whirl! You truly are a master...I hereby grant you the title of Master Professor Blade Donovan.
On behalf of many, many faculty, may I just say that I could die of an ongoing combination of laughter (it hurts!) and insane jealousy that I didn't do something like this. Well done!!!
Brian, if this professor thing doesn't work out, I can guarantee you a very lucrative career in TV production. No really, congratulations indeed on your stellar achievement. The only thing that would top this would be KU winning the NCAA - oh wait a minute . . . . did someone say "rock chalk!!!!!"
Very well done Brian! I noticed some Natalie influence in there-Jesus Christ Superstar- That RollerSkate movie with linda Blair-other assorted 70's 80's classic- Very Impressed!
Forget all the hard work it took to get tenure, how about all the hard work it took to produce and edit this masterpiece? You have outdone yourself! Add mine to the congratulations coming your way!
It takes a montage, Montage! Show a lot of things happening at once, Montage! Remind everyone of what's going on, Montage! And with every shot show a little improvement, Montage! To show it all would take too long, that's called a montage..Montage! Girl, we want a montage, Montage! In anything, if you want to go from just a beginner to a pro, you need a montage!
Congratulations, Brian...both on receiving tenure and on a great video.

Way to go, Brian. I had intended to send a note of congratulations, but this great video provides added incentive.

The beginner has turned pro. Sweet.
It's all about praxis!
Even Rocky had a montage!
