The Editor's Prayer
From Gael at www.joyoffilmediting.com
Our perfect director who art in heaven,
Showered with Oscars be thy name.
Thy Lifetime Achievement will come, thy will be done
In the editing room as it is on location.
Give us this day our daily film and
Forgive the missing footage as we also forgive
the person in charge of continuity.
Lead us not into frustration
But deliver us from the talent free director,
For ours is the splicer, the mouse,
and the objective eye.
Forever.
Amen.

For further reading, the December 1962 Popular Mechanics article, Here Comes UHF-TV explains the hows, whys and costs of the UHF-TV transition."

The original photo is around the web, and someone else added the perfect Photoshop polish.
If you know who I should credit for either, please let me know.
Ok, this one is not humorous.
It's actually sweet and extremely well done.
As a matter of fact, it was the Winner of the Nokia Shorts competition in 2011.
It was shot entirely on the Nokia N8 mobile phone.
