Inspirational Speech by Dr. Randy Pausch On the Oprah Winfrey Show: The Last Lecture. Dr. Pausch Passed Away On July 25, 2008
http://www.firstgiving.com/randypausch PLEASE donate to the Randy Pausch pancreatic cancer research fund.
Dr. Randy Pausch has passed away this morning on July 25, 2008. He will be GREATLY missed but his words and teachings will live on FOREVER!
This is a video that everyone should see. For those of you who aren't familiar with who Dr. Randy Pausch is, the short story goes like this:
He is a happily married man with three very young children. He spent years working for Disney as an Imagineer who helped them develop some of their theme park attractions. He then went on to teach at Carnegie-Mellon University in Pennsylvania.
Abruptly, his life took a turn for the worse when he got cancer and fought it off after years of treatment. The cancer has since returned and has near-totally corupted several vital organs leaving him with mere months to live.
This video is his shortened speech on how not even death can bring this man down and how the dreams he sought to come true can inspire us all.
This video has changed my life and I will NEVER forget it. Will it do the same for you?
Please pass this video from the Oprah Winfrey Show on to anyone you feel takes life for granted or just pass it to someone who loves to live.

Prangstgrup - Reach! A Lecture Musical Prank!!
A student stands up in the middle of class and starts brilliantly singing a broadway style musical.
Even the Professor (James Valentini) was laughing at this!!!!
Starring Mike Barry
With Kate Berthhold, Trey McArver, and Patrick Young
Lyrics (written by Brian Jacobs)
Hey teach!
I've got a question -- what I mean is. . . it's just. . .
We come to class everyday it seems, we all fall asleep we've lost all our dreams.
There is no inspiration.
But when did we become this way, so disillusioned? So blasé?
I can't make the calculation.
Can I borrow your TI-83?
Hey teach!
Have you thought for a while
about the impact that you have on us?
Teach!
I think it's high time that you tried
to extend your learning on to us and reach!
Are you with me classmates?
YEAH.
(One person)
What about that guy over there? Why aren't you taking notes? Don't you even care?
This is your education.
This girl sitting over here, she talks a lot in class but her thoughts are never really quite clear.
So much mental masturbation
Is it we..who are to blame.
Hey TEACH!!!!
All the professors in movies and TV
like "Dead Poets Society,"
and they risk their very professions for the chance
to be inspirations to kids like me!
Hey teach!
It's no wonder why we're here.
You must think we only party and drink beer.
But all we need is just one chance...
to be treated as your equals and to dance.
Hey teach!
It's no wonder why we're here.
You must think we only party and drink beer.
I think it's high time that you tried
to extend your learning.. on.. to.. us.. and REACH! TEACH! ...
