#1 Taking a Class Just for Kicks

My #1 is taking a random class. Last night was the first day of History of Motion Picture. Okay, first of all I'm majoring in Nursing with a Business minor. Nothing close to Cinema, Photography, OR anything artsy! The reason why I took this was because none of the Physical Education classes fit into my schedule. I just figured, okay watch movies and write a couple papers on them - seemed easy enough.

So the professor started talking about the first "movie" the flip book, blah blah more technical things blah blah blah. Then, he showed us a series of Edison's first kinetoscope shows. Some of them were so random like a person sneezing, a bodybuilder, etc. But there was one called "Boxing Cats". The first thing I thought was "WTF" then I laughed. So through the power of YouTube I now present to you "Boxing Cats"





*EDIT
We can all thank Thomas Edison and Henry Welton for indirectly helping create YouTube.
