So many things have happened over the past several days on steemit, it has been like being on the kind of amusement park ride where you can't decide whether you love it or want off. For myself, I've settled on the former. I'll be riding this ride as long as the steemit park remains open. Not only do I get to create on a daily basis; not only do I have people enjoying my creations; but I've also met some of the most awesome people that reside on this globe.
I went to bed shortly after reading about Dan's resignation, and honestly I didn't know how to feel about it. But early this afternoon when I got on, I found several posts from some amazing people, spreading positivity, enthusiasm and love. If you want to feel the same kind of encouragement I did, go check out the pages of 
My initial intention for this Happy Whiskey Wednesday was to put up a video taken by me of my brother playing his first show out since the birth of his daughter, at the Angry Goat Pub in Rochester NY.
Amazing truffle parmesan fries- that my friend Ian promptly ruined by dumping yellow mustard on-and a glass of Southern Tier's Pumpkin Ale...that I found in Ian's hand when I came back from the bathroom ha! It's all good though, he bought me two more ;)

The only blurry picture I'll subject you to...
Because unfortunately my camera experienced technical difficulties, and I was only able to get a couple of clear pictures before they mysteriously went blurry and the video wouldn't work for me at all. But I have a backup plan, a video taken of my brother singing a song I'm dedicating to steemit and all of my amazing friends-Stevie Wonder's Signed Sealed Delivered.
And if this happens to be the first time you've stumbled upon a Happy Whiskey Wednesday post, here is the backstory:
Once upon a time a group of friends of mine on social media (when facebook was in its fledgling stages) started the tradition of Happy Whiskey Wednesday as a way of bringing some fun to the middle of a work week. It was our own cyber happy hour...s.
We would post kick-ass, upbeat songs to one another; we even turned it into a contest at one point as to who could bring the most fun and excitement to the party. Often the hilarity would go on into the night, with dozens of ridiculous pictures (and comments of course) added to the mix. So if you feel the urge please do join in the fun, either by making your own post or posting down below in the comments with videos or anecdotes, or really anything that floats your boats! Today especially people, it's a good day to engage in happy vibes!
And now for the main event:
