have you ever felt all alone in a big

crowd of people

when you feel different or strange or

that most people are not like you it is

probably because you feel like you're in

a minority being in a minority is like

when you're the only kid in class who

forgot to bring their lunch each of us

is in a minority at different times in

different ways children are sometimes

surrounded by adults boys maybe

surrounded by girls or just the opposite

[Music]

even being surrounded by dogs and cats

might make you feel you're in a minority

but if you learn what it's like to feel

alone in a crowd of people different

from yourself then maybe you'll know how

to make someone else feel less alone

[Music]

[Music]

you're

every piece

no you understand

always works we do

so

[Music]

[Applause]

style

[Music]

every day

[Music]

[Music]

we

all part of this team

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

because he

[Music]

you

all part of his

[Music]

everything is g*y

no you

[Music]

[Applause]

everything

you're smarter

[Music]

did you know that long ago and once upon

a time

long ago a guitar started life as a

hunting though the string was pulled

back the sh**ting game then late at

night on the hunter was tame he put it

to his mouth and plucked the string and

made of delicious songs the same in

parts of Africa far far away and among

Native Americans in the USA there are

some who still play that bow of old and

make beautiful music that's strong and

bold

[Music]

through the years the guitar grew fat

and round

[Music]

Oh

and produced a fantastic variety of

sound

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

it sings the blues' as blue as blue can

be it rocks loud and strong electric and

free it sing sad songs to make us weep

and cry or g*y and happy teams to dance

or hum bye

it's got a magic beat that says to all

come on

be my friend take my hand you speak a

language I did I understand a story of

the superlative horse until news when

Han Khan finally made an unlikely choice

an ordinary-looking brown-style

in guangzhou was delighted he could

hardly wait to get away and he was

afraid Hong Kong would change his mind

he was beside himself with joy and glee

as he hurried back to court he could

hardly wait to tell everyone what a fool

Hottentot and

how he had paid 1000 gold bars forth

mangy brown horse how he had completely

ignored a beautiful white stallion that

was a match for any in a Duke stable a

stallion more magnificent than any Wanko

had ever seen my eager chief minister if

this horse was indeed as magnificent as

you described why did you not buy him

for yourself I would have of course

except for as you know I don't care much

for horses boy would you have us believe

that a man who does not care much for

horses is that to be a good judge of

horses I think I can judge as well as

the next name oh but I shouldn't think

to have my bar but she was my horses

much as we admire the way he trims my

beard now I think we have heard enough

of the horse honk God did not choose and

that it would be fairer to judge by the

horse he has chosen

[Music]

where is polo he is taking his tea does

he know the horses here

polo sends word that he trusts it is a

good horse but that he has seen many

good horses in his life and prefers not

to interrupt his tea to see one more he

asks me to remind you that he is nearly

70 and trusts you will understand that

at the approach of 71 hurries only to

see a superlative horse should the horse

be a superlative horse he want to send

word and he will come at once ah we all

know why poor is not here polo is not

here for the reason he has given and

also because the horse is Hong Kong's

choice and it is I who has judged the

wisdom of the choice ah at last here is

Han Khan coming now let us see the horse

he has finally chosen how did God tell

us about the horse you have chosen we

have been waiting impatiently what color

is it

is it a mayor or a stallion it is a

dun-colored mayor ah that must be the

horse over there bring her to me

but handguns surely you must be mistaken

this horse is that a dun-colored mayor

this horse is brown ah yes so it is and

this is not a mayor this is a stallion

yes so it is

you Moo was astonished horse was neither

dun-colored nor a mare the Duke mu

pointed this out honkin merely shrugged

as if he didn't notice the Duke was

furious leave me fuel Hawker if only

here did the white stallion there was a

horse

you two leave me

[Music]

oh you have advised me badly

the boy whom I commissioned to look for

a horse has no eye at all he can neither

distinguish our horses color nor can you

telomere from a stallion now see the

horse

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Laughter]

there's no comparison between me and don

khon he is worth ten thousand of me put

together

polo have you lost your good senses is

that horse are done colored mayor no

doesn't matter matter tell me how many

stallions have you in your stables mm

perhaps and how many mares eighteen

thousand more or less and which are the

better horses the stallions already know

it depends on the horse some of the

stallions are superior and some of the

mayors of course and how many light

colored horses do you have a goodly

number how many dark horses there are

many dark horses you know as well as I

yes and which are the better horses the

light or e dark horses it depends on the

horse he certainly the excellence of a

horse does not depend on its sex or

color or breed or boot excellence is a

matter of the heart and spirit of the

others

it is this that Hong Kong keeps in mind

in keeping his eyes on the inequalities

of the horse he loses sight of the

external details he look at things as

sea otter look at they know as those

that do not matter you mean there are

horses appearance is of no importance

well little importance you know Duke Liu

the judging of horses is important true

but it is also useful to be able to

judge between a good idea and a poor

idea and to be able to judge men and

women as they truly are not just by

their appearance it would not surprise

me at all at this Hong Kong to prove

able to judge not only horses but people

and ideas that's why

[Music]

excuse me Dooku on Kaunas here

I spoke in haste a test of a good horse

is after all in his performance

if the horse you have chosen for me can

keep pace with any horse in my stables I

will do honor to polos good opinion of

you and keep you in my service as this

to you suggests it is a race you wish to

see them that is always a good test may

I choose the horse to race against you

may it's not allowed him to choose his

own horse he will choose the slowest

haast in the stable to make his poor

horse look good your remarks are a

disrespect to polo some of my horses may

be less fleet than others but none is

slow and if a country boy on his first

try can choose a horse equal to one

chosen by the great polo he has an eye

that can learn to judge wisely

[Applause]

[Music]

on the day of the race a great crowd

assembled the course had been laid out

through rough terrain it was to be a

test of endurance as well as swing

[Music]

are you certain you wish to race against

this horse is he not the best of the

horses in your stable why yes I think he

is that is why I have chosen him a race

against an inferior horse holds no honor

the two horses drew up to the starting

line and then Dooku himself let go the

banner which signal the start of the

race at the fall of the banner stallion

sprang forward like arrows released

[Music]

to everyone's surprise the brow stallion

brand effortlessly keeping pace with

great white horse

[Music]

out held his breath

[Music]

then slowly white began to pull a hint

poggle saw his chance will you raise a

d*ck move I cannot put coin against my

own stallion there is no need to wedge a

coin not the way should be simply that

is the boy disappoint you

he will consult me in the selection of a

chieftain and if he does not then you

will not need my advice

fair enough I accept the wager if I am

disappointed in the boy I shall consult

you in the selection of chief groom and

if I am NOT I shall make you chief

postmaster and I shall consult polo in

the selection of a chief minister

[Music]

just then the two horses disappeared

behind the hill and for a few moments

they were out of sight and just for the

crowd turned the horses came back into

view and a white stallion was still

ahead

[Music]

[Music]

race was now posed to the finish in an

incredible burst of speed the brown

horse edged those two nose with a great

white horse and passed him by

he ran effortlessly his hooves touched

so lightly to the track that the dust

was ghastly disturbed you have indeed

brought me a superlative horse

and you have earned the right to be my

new chief groom

[Applause]

[Music]

and so it was Hong Kong brought his

family to live in a court and became

chief rule

[Music]

and so it was that weingold became the

chief pulse blaster

the brown stallion grew famous

throughout the country and in days to

come many artists and painters tried to

capture this inner beauty and His grace

but it was not until a blind artist

carved his likeness into the side of a

rock that the brown stallions

true beauty was fully expressed the

great horse became a symbol of an

eternal truth that people should not be

judged by appearances but by the inner

qualities of heart and spirit

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

greetings from woody women surprise that

will please your taste buds as well as

your eyes it's better if cooks a Chinese

way yes we're gonna have sweetened

powder ribs today American Chinese Brits

have taught us to combine flavors

without a fuss so find a grown-up ready

to cook take 2 teaspoons of honey and

sugar now combine the spices first off

to pour over the spirit

let the meat soak for 15 minutes then

take out the spirits now we need some

aluminum foil so say the spare thon so

we can broil but never use the stove

unless you've got a grown-up to help you

should 10 minutes on each side should

you use a low flame about 350 degrees

[Music]

shiny

[Music]

[Music]

I'll get such it down me this is a party

yeah don't feel too badly Albert there

are times when each of us feels like we

don't fit in we all have something we're

not too happy about could be the way we

look the way we play baseball how much

money we have sometimes other people can

be painfully good at picking on our weak

points and that's when a nasty word or

even a look can really hurt so think

about how you've been hurt by someone

finding your flaws before you make fun

of others let's run the film back and

see what might have happened at that

party

[Music]

is audio your friend Luther sure peewee

is hardcore

yes Mary Francis yes Lily yes how did

you get so many friends by being

friendly I guess

[Music]
