"If your kids want to paint their bedrooms, as a favor to me, let 'em do it."

Read/watch this lecture, billed as Randy Pausch's "last lecture."

As an intro, the article in the WSJ that talks about the lecture.

The video of the speech is an hour and three-quarters if you watch to the very end. There's also an edited five-minute video, but it doesn't capture what the full video does.

Randy Pausch's speech (and Randy Pausch), inspirational.
