one little tip on the microphone thing: did you check your input volume? My macbook has a really low input volume as a default. Once I increase the input volume, I don’t have any problems being heard via the built in mic.
I suppose I am closer in my video than you are in your video tho, but I’m not right next to the monitor or anything . . . http://youtube.com/watch?v=rZb3yb0mv8o
PS I agree with your take on the whole shooting thing (you got into it on Jacqui’s blog, but I’m pretty much done commenting there. I don’t have time for her crap). Yeah, the shootings suck. They freaked me out (being a grad student and a college instructor and all). But I don’t think it’s a realistic fear. I should worry a lot more about a car crash on the way to my field site. I think people worry b/c it’s a novel threat. We’re not complacent anymore. But I also don’t think school shootings (or shootings in general) are really going to convince me to carry my gun around every day. I can imagine much more annoyance/problems/etc will result from carrying my gun around classes than my not having a gun.

You need to clean your room.

Other than making the bed, I don’t think so. The stack of pants is actually deliberate—I don’t really have the room for a full dresser without blocking the windows, closet, door, heat vent, etc. There’s more mess, of course, but nothing you can see in the video.
