Better than a very touching "The Cosby Show"....

This week....on a very touching Fresh Prince of Bel Air.

Very touching.

As far as I know, this is a piano solo. But at certain times I can hear strings and brass. Although you can't see the whole orchestra I'm pretty sure no other instruments join in. Is it possible he's that good to create the essence of strings and brass with just the keyboard?

Example: from 2:45 - 4:00

And the woman in the right side background, with her knitted brow, seems very touched by the piece or she's thinking, "let's speed this up a bit."

But in all seriousness, yes, very touching.

Pontius Pilate: You're a funny guy Judas, I like you. That's why I'm going to kill you last.
(later)
Pontius Pilate: Where is she, Judas?
Judas: Kiss my ass!
Pontius Pilate: I can't hear you!
Judas: I'll say it a little louder, get fucked!
Pontius Pilate: [holds Judas upside-down over a cliff by his leg] Listen, loyalty is very touching. But it is not the most important thing in your life right now! But what IS important is gravity! I have to remind you Judas, this is my weak arm!
Judas: You can't kill me Pontius Pilate! You need me to find your daughter!
Pontius Pilate: Where is she?
Judas: I don't know. But Jesus knows, I'll take you to where I'm supposed to meet him!
Pontius Pilate: But you won't.
Judas: Why not?
Pontius Pilate: [holds the hotel key he stole from Judas that Jesus is staying at] Because I already know. Remember, Judas, when I promised to kill you last?
Judas: That's right, Pontius Pilate! You did!
Pontius Pilate: I lied.

Very touching.

Cancer sucks. I think you know and I know it doesn't cure this terrible thing.
This was a very touching video.
And yes, to forget, even for a second, is a blessing.

This was a very touching story. I got emotional in a few places while watching.

In some ways, getting a terminal diagnosis and dying from it is the easy part. Living with the memory is, in some ways, more difficult.

Wow. *quality Hippie Song from David Byrne to accompany a very touching story. This deserves more views.

Very touching...

got a little dirt in my eyes...

Very touching.

This woman was John Hughes' pen-pal, from her teenage years right up to near the time of his death. Very touching read, which helps explain why he stopped making films... http://wellknowwhenwegetthere.blogspot.com/2009/08/sincerely-john-hughes.html?fark

okay, I'm an atheist, but I can't understand the harsh comments on here.

As far as allowing the child to live as long as they did, well, they probably didn't find out about his defects until it was too late for an abortion (not that they would've considered it, but I'm just making a point), and infanticide is just as illegal as euthanasia -- so there's no reason to blame the parents for the possibility of prolonged suffering.

There's also no reason to believe the child was suffering the whole time. The parents obviously spent the entirety of those 99 days completely focused on taking care of him as best possible.

I have no problem with the fact that they interpreted their experience through their faith. If it helps them to heal, than fine.

Now as an atheist, the way I interpret this is the remarkable capacity humans (have obtained from millions of years of evolution) have to love and care for children. The video was very touching and sad, but also beautiful.

As far as the beliefs of the parents, they really didn't specify, so for all we know they are moderate Christians, and not the extremist types. And in no way did they imply that his death was a miracle. I may not believe in miracles, but if they chose to believe that the time they spent with their child was a miracle, than fine. It doesn't mean that they're not aware of the contributions of medical science.
