 If you go to Source2, you can read the interestion history
 and evolution of the "Where The Hell Is Matt?"
 videos.  How he and Brad Welch took off like all
 good Aussies and travel the planet for a while.
 How Matt started doing his stupid dances with the
 locals and putting the videos on his blog. How the
 videos got on YouTube and went viral. How a chewing
 gum company, Stride, asked to sponsor his videos.
 And how the videos evolved away from dancing in front of
 iconic landmarks to dancing with a bunch of kids and people.
.
Matt dropped his corporate sponsor and is
now trying to make "Where The Hell Is Matt?"
be a part of the people.  You can buy a
copy of this video for as little as $1.00.
You can sign-up to dance with Matt when he
is in your area at

 No matter how many times you view this video, it will bring
 a smile to your face and warmth to your heart.  Thank you Matt.

Subj:     Passing The Shirt (S392b, S645)
          From: DafterLafter on 7/25/2004

 Warning: This is not a joke, but instead a warm story.

 The Yellow shirt The baggy yellow shirt had long sleeves,
 four extra-large pockets trimmed in black thread and snaps
 up the front.  It was faded from years of wear, but still
 in decent shape.  I found it in 1963 when I was home from
 college on Christmas break, rummaging through bags of
 clothes Mom intended to give away.

 "You're not taking that old thing, are you?" Mom said when
 she saw me packing the yellow shirt.  "I wore that when I
 was pregnant with your brother in 1954!"  "It's just the
 thing to wear over my clothes during art class, Mom.
 Thanks!" I slipped it into my suitcase before she could
 object. The yellow shirt became a part of my college
 wardrobe.  I loved it.  After graduation, I wore the shirt
 the day I moved into my new apartment and on Saturday
 mornings when I cleaned.

 The next year, I married.  When I became pregnant, I wore
 the yellow shirt during big-belly days.  I missed Mom and
 the rest of my family, since we were in Colorado and they
 were in Illinois. But that shirt helped.  I smiled,
 remembering that Mother had worn it when she was pregnant,
 15 years earlier.

 That Christmas, mindful of the warm feelings the shirt had
 given me, I patched one elbow, wrapped it in holiday paper
 and sent it to Mom.  When Mom wrote to thank me for her
 "real" gifts, she said the yellow shirt was lovely.  She
 never mentioned it again.

 The next year, my husband, daughter and I stopped at Mom
 and Dad's to pick up some furniture.  Days later, when we
 uncrated the kitchen table, I noticed something yellow
 taped to its bottom.  The shirt!  And so the pattern was
 set.

 On our next visit home, I secretly placed the shirt under
 Mom and Dad's mattress.  I don't know how long it took for
 her to find it, but almost two years passed before I
 discovered it under the base of our living-room floor lamp.
 The yellow shirt was just what I needed now while
 refinishing furniture.  The walnut stains added character.

 In 1975 my husband and I divorced.  With my three children,
 I prepared to move back to Illinois.  As I packed, a deep
 depression overtook me.  I wondered if I could make it on my
 own.  I wondered if I would find a job. I paged through the
 Bible, looking for comfort.  In Ephesians, I read, "So use
 every piece of God's armor to resist the enemy whenever he
 attacks, and when it is all over, you will be standing up."
 I tried to picture myself wearing God's armor, but all I
 saw was the stained yellow shirt.  Slowly, it dawned on me.
 Wasn't my mother's love a piece of God's armor?  My courage
 was renewed.

 Unpacking in our new home, I knew I had to get the shirt
 back to Mother.  The next time I visited her, I tucked it in
 her bottom dresser drawer. Meanwhile, I found a good job at
 a radio station.  A year later I discovered the yellow shirt
 hidden in a rag bag in my cleaning closet.  Something new
 had been added.  Embroidered in bright green across the
 breast pocket were the words "I BELONG TO PAT." Not to be
 outdone, I got out my own embroidery materials and added an
 apostrophe and seven more letters.  Now the shirt proudly
 proclaimed, "I BELONG TO PAT'S MOTHER."  But I didn't stop
 there.  I zig-zagged all the frayed seams, then had a friend
 mail the shirt in a fancy box to Mom from Arlington, VA.  We
 enclosed an official looking letter from "The Institute for
 the Destitute," announcing that she was the recipient of an
 award for good deeds.  I would have given anything to see
 Mom's face when she opened the box.  But, of course, she
 never mentioned it.

 Two years later, in 1978, I remarried.  The day of our
 wedding, Harold and I put our car in a friend's garage to
 avoid practical jokers.  After the wedding, while my
 husband drove us to our honeymoon suite, I reached for a
 pillow in the car to rest my head.  It felt lumpy.  I
 unzipped the case and found, wrapped in wedding paper, the
 yellow shirt.  Inside a pocket was a note: "Read John
 14:27-29.  I love you both, Mother."

 That night I paged through the Bible in a hotel room and
 found the verses:  "I am leaving you with a gift: peace of
 mind and heart.  And the peace I give isn't fragile like the
 peace the world gives.  So don't be troubled or afraid.
 Remember what I told you: I am going away, but I will come
 back to you again. If you really love me, you will be very
 happy for me, for now I can go to the Father, who is greater
 than I am.  I have told you these things before they happen
 so that when they do, you will believe in me."

 The shirt was Mother's final gift.  She had known for three
 months that she had terminal Lou Gehrig's disease.  Mother
 died the following year at age 57. I was tempted to send the
 yellow shirt with her to her grave. But I'm glad I didn't,
 because it is a vivid reminder of the love-filled game she
 and I played for 16 years.  Besides, my older daughter is in
 college now, majoring in art.  And every art student needs a
 baggy yellow shirt with big pockets.
