That might be your bet one yet. The extra five seconds must make all the difference.

That could be adapted into a great screensaver.

I think it’s in Chicago airport?

At first, they bothered me. It just didn’t sit right as I watched the video. Maybe it was a subconscious personification of the sticks.

Then, on a second viewing, I indulged such fantasies. The washing stick is your average stick. He’s at work and he’s doing what he does best.

The squeegee stick is drunk. More than a little drunk. Look how he wobbles around and takes forever to get just three rows done.

I wonder if he would have gone all the way to the top if he wasn’t being filmed. Love your site!
