This is my attempt at humor. I was having fun with The Movies and  
decided to make a video dedicated to Ruby. Its a parody of an after  
school special documentary.

This is _adult_ humor. Please, be warned. Several usages of the “f”  
word.

Oh, and its currently a whopping 200MB and in WMV _shudder_… however,  
that’s the only thing The Movies outputs and after an hour of trying to  
find something to change the codec, I gave up. If any of you want to  
send me a new version of the video, I will happily… HAPPILY put it  
up.

I figured I’d put it up in its current state, because you guys might  
enjoy it.

One last note.

If something is wrong or offensive, its that way for a purpose. Laugh.  
Or at least cringe.
