MONKEY MUSINGS DAILY OPEN DISCUSSION #51 9/14/09 - 10/03/09

[Deenie]

The venue you speak of sounds much like the one I'm thinking about here.  Family-oriented.  Rugs on the hill. 

But when the big promoters book it, the water costs a fortune.

Heart. And Annie Lennox is a goddess. 

I have a question: How do I embed a youtube clip here?  I'm using the embed code from youtube but its previewing as gibberish.  I can stick in a hyperlink to it, but I'm trying to be clever.

Trip if I can explain. 
You go to youtube and copy the embed link and Paste it to your post here.
You will see a big jabber of words  - such as this

<object width="445" height="364"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/4xTW14tq9SM&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0&color1=0x234900&color2=0x4e9e00&border=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/4xTW14tq9SM&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0&color1=0x234900&color2=0x4e9e00&border=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="445" height="364"></embed></object>


Remove what I have highlighted. What is left  in code "you then Highlight the code left over with your Mouse" look above to the Icons and click on what I think looks like a Beach Ball under the B and a new code will appear.

((( Highlight this with Mouse)) Click on Beach Ball which is Flash 

It should look like this at the end. I know Klaas has a tutorial posted on Help on how to embed.

If you notice the 200,200  - that is the smallest - It can be as big as 400,400 which would be a normal Youtube video size. You can alter the numbers yourself


Arr its not going to show, its going to be a video - so I will change the = sign to a * so you can see. Trip you asking a Dyslexic Monkey ... Lmao .. I am dyslexic so this is hard for me.
The bottom  code is this what will create the vid to appear as you see below. You can change the 200 to 400 in order to make it bigger ....... I hope I am making sense.

  Go to the option prior to posting " Preview to see if worked" always check your work

[Tripitaka]

Can't quite work out how to embed this.

So I'll just link it and then go learn how to embed.

Wally de Backer is 'Gotye'. 

Great feel good new Australian soul.

Hey Deenie!

I did it!

You are not dyslexic.  If you are so am I.


Thanks for your excellent explanation. 

[Deenie]

Good night Deenie and Tripitaka!   

I agree with you Texas and I agree too that Beyonce is Real. She is not a Gold Digger  ... and she I am sure gave a personal Call to Mr West ... Leave Your Bus in your own Drive Way! Don't throw me under your tripping acts for attention.

This is the only song I know of Kanye's Talent. For which I like and has been one of my faves only because of the back loop by Jamie Foxx. All I pay attention to is the beat and Jamie singing " She take my Money .. etc" In the name of Ray Charles. Kanye is the 3rd thought.    Oh that and this song was made famous because Tom Cruise lost his mind at a Kanye Concert prior to marrying Katie .. and was swinging from the rafters screaming NO prenups ... Gawd give me a break ...... gag. 

[Deenie]

Thanks Deenie,

I will study what you've said here and have a go.

Thank you!

YAY YAY OMG - thats Awesome - I see Your Video !! I did It ....... I can't believe it.
I am still finding a special song for You.  I am sure I will see you Soon.

Have a great rest of your day Trip. Oh I hope you see this before you leave. I met a little boy omg 20+ yrs ago in Florida. I was on vacation. He was 4 yrs old. He was from Georgia and was at the Pool where I was staying. I asked his Name and he said "My name is Trip".  I said well Nice to meet you. He and I became friends with his Mom right there at all times. She would say Trip leave that young lady alone ..let her be.
I was with 2 of my girlfriends that all they wanted to do was lay on the concrete and become brownies .. I was so Bored. This little guy and I played Frisbee and ran around like crazy .. I was 18.  I will never forget him. He made everything Fun.  So I think Trip is a good nickname for You as well.
Peace Hugs -
 

[Tripitaka]

Deenie,

That's lovely. 
I'm fond of this name.  I've never used it before.  I asked a friend while signing up, what's a good monkey name and we got stuck talking about the cult tv series and its characters. Tripitaka. He wasn't a monkey. But he was misplaced.  It fit with missing. 

I love the story of your friend Trip.

It must be late where you are.

Thanks for making me feel most welcome.

So glad I came across another music lover here so soon.

Typical of me..

Look forward to talking more with you, and all the monkeys.

Peace Hugs to you too.

I like the Song ...for some reason it reminds me of Tom Jones.

No worries about Time I am a Night Monkey that simply does not sleep. I am me and am like other Monkeys ..you will find them and get to know them. But no matter of time we are all here together and are a grand bunch. I am happy that you find me as I am. I am a true Music lover. One thing I have known and gathered through my life " You can always Count on Music" it is the silver lining within all no matter your age, your person, your anything - its always core and it represents every moment of your life. Sound is the most beautiful gift you can receive or give. Music is the common thread to all man, woman and child. Where it be orchestra or pots and pans in your kitchen, or a drum made of ?? ... 
Peace back to you-
 
I will find you as I hope you find me

[Tripitaka]

Tom Jones.  Oh it's similar with the sound.

I love Tom Jones.

I hear the similarity in the sound.  It's that sound that is my favorite, orchestral, soulful vocal, ear-candy. 

Music is a constant.  I will always have it, even if I have nothing else, I will always be able to sing a song.

Not having participated in online forums all that much, I will take every monkey i meet as they give themselves, as i would anyone i met face to face.  I know that will make me gullible in some situations along my path.  But what can I say?  Music made me that way.

[trimmonthelake]

[tupelohoney]

Klaas, I have changed my email addy....if you need my new one, please let me know how to contact you. I was sent one of those Nigerian emails from someone I knew, her computer was hacked, and to be safe I made major changes to my computer. Thanks
