Remember that Bush "Mighty Mouse" video I've beem whining about?
Edited on Thu Oct-28-04 11:54 PM by rocknation
The bad news is, the post with the link sank into the archives, which I can't retrieve until after election day.

The good news is, after two days of searching, I found as a Bit Torrent file through Bushflash.com.

The bad news is, there isn't a BitTorrent for MacintoshOS9.

The good news is, I found an application that allows MacintoshOS9 to use BitTorrent.

The bad news is, I couldn't get it to work.

The good news is, I went back to the page the BitTorrent file is on, and there was a link to a mirror site which had the file as a Quicktime movie--no BitTorrent needed!


I just had to see this video again because it is the Bush administration personified. George IS a mighty mouse--his esteemed colleagues do the actual work while he stands in front, sings only one line, and literally grabs all the glory. As they say in that beer commercial, BRILLIANT--it will be the perfect thing to remember him by!

1. Where's this program that lets you BT on OS9?
I'd like to try it on my geriatric iMac and see if it works.

You have to have something called CarbonLib and MacPython.

2. That was funny -- I saw you ask about it earlier, but
I hadn't seen it. Some old Andy Kaufman fan, no doubt -- that reminds me of the first time I saw Kaufman on SNL.

5. The good news is it comes with a free Frogurt!
The bad news is the Frogurt has pottasium benzoate.

7. WOW WOW WOW!
I LOVE it!! Thank you SO much for posting this, Ronny -- I might have missed it otherwise.

That was so sweet -- times are so tense now I am grim and determined like everyone else -- so a treat like that was certainly what I needed.
