Re: O'l John
Right up to when you said "someone with a laptop..." we were on the same page. Problem is, I don't get the impression that watching something on a computer is much of an option. However, the nurse attendant told me that if he got a DVD he could "watch it on TV". I think, at least for the first iteration or two, that we should stick with "simple". And while what you suggested, (kinda what I was thinking too before I spoke with the staff there), does indeed sound 'simple', I get the impression that we need to be even simpler.
If "y'all" will send me your clips, or post them here, I will collate them and send them to John on a DVD. However, "you" can do the same yourselves, simply using the above address. (Just make sure it says something like "FOR John Talley" on it.)
It is my intent to keep the first effort modest. If that 'works', we can start sending him more involved/longer videos.
I was thinking that even though the staffer said he doesn't like to "read" or have things read to him, I bet he would appreciate a 'greeting card' that simply said something like "Hey John, We were thinking about you." would brighten his day.
