Had this Tupac tune in my head all day (not work safe, as always):

I wish I could embed it. Oh well.

So Jeff and I sang the lyrics out loud at various people far away, and nobody in particulars. I enjoyed my new train whistle I found in my garage... TOOT TOOT! Yes, the Tupac Train is coming down San Antonio Canyon, beeyatch.

"Come with me, Hail Mary,
nigga run quick, see,
what do we have here now?
Do you wanna ride or die?
La, la la la, la, la, la la"

The top secret redirect on the longest rapp. This waterfall is the third from the bottom, the biggest one you see from San Antonio Falls Road. The redirect is on the left side of the falls when you're looking at it from the bottom. It's a Metolius Dyneema sling with an old Petzl Spirit biner or somesuch. It's hard to open now, all old and whatnot.

Right click on the video in Youtube. A list of options will come up. Select "copy embed HTML." Then paste it into your post here on SGMDF.

It'll look like this: Remove all the "object" related code, so that it looks like this: Adjust the height and width as needed/desired.

The final result looks like this once you submit the post:
