This is one of the most awe-inspiring videos I've ever seen. Those of us who are familiar with big trucks, RV's and the like are especially aware of how easy it is to bump a side mirror, but imagine maneuvering through the streets of Los Angeles with that wing span! The turns and corners had me holding my breath, and the final shot is the driver PARKING the behemoth in a garage! I hope the link works ok - the video is a little under 3 minutes and worth every bit of it.
Enjoy, and thanks to my brother Bill in Milwaukee (whose birthday is today and the darned kid is still younger than I am!)

- Video: The Cat Man. A Street Performer's Story
There are streets in this world that wouldn't be the same without the street performers who make a living on them. I like street performers, ok, maybe not all of them, but the motionless ones in fancy clothing and the really talented artists...
