OK....Let's Give it a go.......
First when you go to Youtube......you want to look for the embed code.......
The embed code is hilighted in the picture above......you want to remember you will need to copy the entire code to past it in your "New Post" window.......
Let's look at the new post window.......
There are three icons in the highlighted area above.....the center one "<>" switches the box to html mode...that is when and where you paste the embed code,
It you want text before the video type it in before you switch modes, or after, you put the video in by switching modes back by clicking on the pencil.....
give it a try and get the feel of it!

Re:
vogue, I guess the second time's the charm! As for second chances, this computer is on it's 1,999,765 chance, but I can't smash it until I have the money to get a replacement. So it lives...for now!
I'll play you a song any time you want

Re: Good Morning....
Corbin, I started it last night and I'm already hooked! Talk about a wild preface!
Have I told you lately, that you're my hero? Hands down, top notch, bestest guy ever! In fact, I think I'll go bake you some Hero Cookies.

Re: Yes, the error message from hell and then it wants to know if you
Yeah, I really hate that message. I click the Don't Send button. Then it gives me the message that it's sending the report anyways. The whole thing usually ends with me having a minor temper tantrum, and rebooting. *sigh*
Thanks for the instructions--I'm off to mess with the little <>!

Re: Sira
Naut, I love Hendrix--I want to be just like him when I "grow up". Minus the part about being a guy, of course. But Black Betty is a Ram Jam song
And I can play it, but not nearly as good as the pros!
I think, if a person knows what they're doing, things like pots and spoons can be fantastic. My family doesn't know what they're doing...!

Re: darling is it only your computer? NO!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Goodness no Kabu. I actually have 3 computers (excessive, I know!). But this is the newest one, and also the one that crashes most often. Frustrates me to no end!
LOL at the smilies--that was my weekend, in a nutshell!

Re:
Nite,
They're special--as in, "should be wearing a helmet" kind of special. But I love 'em anyways!
I've never played guitar hero, mainly because I'm just not good with the console control pads. All those buttons confuse me. Annoying, indeed!

Re:
Hi gap! My dad's cool, I guess...in his own special way! I think that's one of my favorite things about music--just hearing the first bars of a song can bring back a flood of memory!
Thanks for reading

Yes, the error message from hell and then it wants to know if you
would like to send the message to Microsoft .. uh, no, I'm pretty sure I'm not the first. If you clear your cache and cookies, you should be ok, maybe. lol I LOVE Black Betty, such a cool song. See that little <> at the bottom of the comment or blog box? You click on that to enter the code for your video ... usually starts with html <object> ... once you have entered the code, you click the pencil to see if you were holding your mouth right - but you won't actually see the video, you will see a big blue circle thingie, and that's ok. Sorry to get so technical, but that should work

Haven't listened to Jimmy Hendrix in ages! You can play that? Impressive! And as I've said before, I like your Dad's style! And even pot bashing can be fun. An Irish buddy of mine always plays the spoons when he's had a few...

Hi, Sira - Enjoyed reading you. Your father sounds like a cool guy. And the last time I rocked out to Black Betty - it was on the Inch Strand in Ireland, cruising down the beach in a tricked out Range Rover. Brings back great memories!!
