Embedded video from CNN Video

Sorry, I guess you can't embed a video clip in the forums, and I can't get CNN to give me a working URL to post a link.

The videos embedded in my latest entry.

Yeah I posted it on my recent entry too. I guess I could have just mentioned that. :) We could use an Edit option for the forums, like every other forum on the internet has.
