And here's the great documentary To Tulsa and back:



UPDATE AUGUST 7, 2013:
And as soon as he passed away the company owning the documentary was reminded to do a round on the interwebs and this clip that had been up on YouTube for at least six months, maybe a year (we really can't recall) was pulled down.
Once again proving that you're worth more dead than alive. ;)

  2. Thanks! That's a really useful comment with uploads disappearing and reappearing time and time again.
    Even if you click a link on a post and just get an error, doing a search for the file in question might find it somewhere else on this growing and changing internet.
