I think it’s very funny that I, who know very little about popular music these days, and I , who often feel like a social media nitwit, had a YouTube video go viral thanks to the tweeting of a superstar whose name sounds vaguely familiar.  I posted the Muscota first graders’ flash mob a couple weeks ago innocently enough, but somehow the singer of that song saw the video and Tweeted about it to all his fans.  Suddenly my sweet little video got over 15,000 hits, which means over 15,000 people enjoyed Huck and his classmates dancing (as well as my sister Jeni, brother in-law Nathan and niece Lily applauding at the end)!  I’m expecting Ellen’s call any day now.  But even more exciting?  They got a writeup in our neighborhood’s little newspaper The Manhattan Times.  At least that’s what is most fantastic to Huck.  (Would it have been too much to ask for a flash mob to “Sunday Bloody Sunday?”)

Anyway, if you guys need me to tell my good old buddy @chrisbrown anything just let me know.  He loves my work.

Sigh.  Where’s @BonoVox_ or @ANNELAMOTT when you need them?
