We both have been blessed in our lives, our first was meeting 27 years ago in a parking lot at a rugby game which started it all for us.
But we have been blessed in many other ways too;
- With our family (Our oldest son Brendan celebrated his 19th birthday today)
- With our close friends and,
- With our Internet friends that we have met through Twitter or at seminars,
- With our business SpectacularPresentations.com
So when we see something that is Spectacular that touches us in one way or another we feel that we need to share it with you.
This is a video montage that was created by our friend Lee Ann Price of LeeAnnPrice.com. We met Lee Ann at Armand Morin's Big Seminar this past fall. This is Lee Ann's first video, so please tell her what you think. The Trackback to Lee Ann's blog post is here.

This is how Social Networking using Twitter gave us a warm, fuzzy feeling as well as some warm jackets…
To get the full details on how we got these wonderful Ezine Articles jackets please read this post here.
In a nutshell, we were tweeting about how Ezine Articles was going to give their authors with 5000 followers a jacket. We made a comment (tweet) about how Ezine Articles was allowing their authors to automaticlly post their approved articles to twitter.
You can check this out at Twitter.EzineArticles.com. We are in the Top 10 followers with published articles.
EzineArticles.com raised a challenge to its authors to have 5,000 followers on Twitter before the end of 2008. The reward? A very warm Ezine Articles fleece jacket!
Here we are in the front of our house with our brand new Ezine Article jackets from Chris Knight and the Ezine Article team. We are having a chinook today, it's (-0c/32f), but we are having winds of 39km/h (24m/h) and wind gusts of 50km/h (30m/h).
Those white streaks in front of us is the blizzard that was occuring at that time.
So thanks to Chris Knight, the Ezine Article team, and of course you our followers; without you this would not have been possible. But it also shows you the power of social networking. Thanks to all of you.
– Pat & Lorna
P.S. They are very, very warm!!!

EzineArticles.com raised a challenge to its authors to have 5,000 followers on Twitter before the end of 2008. The reward? A very warm Ezine Articles fleece jacket!
With only about two weeks left in the year, we were about 590 followers short of that target. And… with the temperatures hanging around the -25 degree Celsius (-10 degree Farenheit) mark, those fleece jackets were looking very inviting!
So, feeling motivated (and cold), we sent out a few messages on Twitter asking others to help us reach the 5,000 follower mark.
Wow! We were blown away with the results! In a few short days we reached our goal. And now, with two days left in the year, we have a grand total of 5,584 followers.
Previous to sending those messages our followers list did not grow anywhere near that quickly. It was, in our opinion, a miracle… or at the very least, a huge learning.
It was solid proof to us that there is power in social networking. Think about it, if it worked this well to increase follower numbers, what else could be accomplished? Anything! There is power in numbers and in people working towards a common goal. All it takes is someone to ask for help or raise a challenge that others believe in.
To answer a much-asked question… can social networking help your business? We believe it can. There is a lot of help and support available through the social networking channels.
But one last word… karma. You can only get out of something what you put in. By being involved in social networking and by offering your help and support, you may be pleasantly surprised what will be available for you when you ask.
