Just when I think people suck,.....
 
I run into stuff like this.

Major props to the guy that made this film. What he did for this kid is incredible. He's a hero in my eyes.

Thanks Vinny! great way to start the day!! I love the look on Cain's face at the end of the film!

This and the recycled orchestra story, these are the kind of news that we need to see!!

GREAT stuff. Sometimes I hate really good people, they interrupt my grumpiness.;)

Thanks Vinny, that is a great way to start the day.

Now THAT is a cool, cool thing. I hope Caine grows up to be a rich entrepreneur.

That is too, too, too cool! I usually don't bother watching clips over 3 minutes long, but that was more than worth it.

I saw this video a while ago. It actually made me cry. I know, total wuss. I just love how he is so determined and proud. Awesome kid.

That's the kind of kid that grows up to put a rover on mars. Or engineer race cars.

Ronbo 12-11-2012 09:01 AM

Great story, thanks for posting.

VINMAN 12-11-2012 07:24 PM

Thanks Doug. Not lookin for support. Just nice to know that at least a few people can appreciate something like that.

Looked into the story a liitle further. Seems that guy Nirvan helped raise almost $200,000 for the little kids college scholarship.

Cool, great story of persistence and initiative. I remember seeing this on the news a while ago.

A lot to be learned from the short film.

Thanks Vin.
