Staff pick at vimeo.com. Posted it here rather than general forum because, ...well, kinda ..., intense.

Didn't there use to be a "what are you watching right now" thread in General? Been watching early Rockford Files episodes on Hulu lately, a treasure trove of VW sightings, and I believe the final episode of season one sees Jim Rockford eluding an adversary via high speed car chase with him driving a beetle. Grand.

Interesting, to say the least, or maybe not.
Slow moving vid, I found my self wanting to fast forward it. Going slow like they did has it's reasons.

Oval with no windshield wipers and badly closing drivers door. She needs Colin to help her out with the engine, unless it is already toast.
Up, up the long, delirious, burning blue, I’ve topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace. Where never lark, or even eagle flew. And, while with silent, lifting mind I've trod, The high untrespassed sanctity of space, Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.
