Weekend well wishes

I tracked this down today and thought everyone could use a little 5 minute 27 second stupid grin. I know I do.

Yes, that really is his voice.

And yes, he is playing an electric ukulele.

Something to think about...

Thanks for the source Erik! Here's a question to ponder....do all individuals have the same ability to learn content delivered from a video game? If not, what are the individual differences that may explain why learning potential is different? Going off of the source Erik posted, is it possible there are differences based on gender? This is the focus of a paper I am working on now and have posted my thoughts related to this topic on my blog - any feedback, questions, contemplations are welcome :)
