I look forward to our wager. I'm feeling confident. I'm thinking your signature, should I win, will be something like this:
MoneyGuy is smarter than me 'cause he bet on the Oilers to beat the Flames in the standings. Flames suck!
Of course, if the Flames get lucky and top the Oilers I will put the reverse into my signature, or something else of your creation. What do you think? What sig would you like me to put up?

This tongue-in-cheek animated short serves as a cautionary tale against the hazards of fire. Early humans were given the gift of fire, but warned against the dangers, warnings that eventually fell by the wayside. In modern society, overloaded electrical sockets, smouldering cigarettes and other dangers lay around every corner, posing possible threats to life and property.

I'm certain it doesn't help that I posted this at another VERY busy site I like to frequent

One of many who is too boring; thinks that there should be rules regarding grammar in custom user titles, and also makes moderators wonder if there is a charachter limit here. I mean come on- you would think that would be a limitation in the software

I saw this video once in 6th grade, and for some reason always remembered it:
I remember back in the days of Superchannel (the original version of it, not the new one that Shaw has brought back), they used to play NFB films in between features if there was a long enough gap and they'd already run all their movie trailers. Saw some good stuff - one I always remember was an animated short about a bunch of bugs who turn a juke box into a disco. And another one about a guy trying to write a symphony and suddenly his whole world becomes animated.
EDIT: Beaten to the punch. Although not surprised, that one is clearly the best.

Good stuff.
I saw The Cat Came Back on HBO Canada a while ago. I don't know if they play more than that though.
Awesome. We're darn lucky to still have these - thousands of films at NFB were starting to suffer from "vinegar syndrome" - where the cellulose films start to degrade. There hadn't been sufficient funding to actually preserve the films and there was a big fear they'd be lost. Glad to see some cash was ponied up for this project.
