The Home Movies library is fairly self-explanatory. These are clips I've shot myself and feature odd little moments from my own life. These won't be general, boring clips of things that are uninteresting to everyone but the people in them. These will be funny, odd, strange, but somehow entertaining.
As with the other clips in ThePeteTV vid libraries, these are hosted by
Lisa Rein. Thanks Lisa!! You ROCK! Go check out her site for more great clips and great commentary and news, similar, but different to the kind of stuff you find here.
You can access this library any time under "ThePeteTV" in the Nav menu near the top of the right-hand column. You can also find other libraries with cool clips, too.
Anyway, on with the vids! The more recent additions are at the top.

20041106Hwood_Protest_MC02.mov | Added 11/7/2: This clip was shot just before the march began. If you look closely in the background, you can see the Chinese Theater. | 
20041106Hwood_Protest_MC03.mov | Added 11/7/2: Here's a clip from further on in the march. It provides a great view from the front of the march. I was literally one person back from the "pace" marchers. | 
20041106Hwood_Protest_MC04.mov | Added 11/7/2: This is what the crowd looked like once we got where we were going--specifically, the corner of Sunset and La Brea. This crowd, I'm guesstimating to be about 400-500 strong. Small compared to the thousands we'd see at protests last year. | 
20041106Hwood_Protest_MC05.mov | Added 11/7/2: Sign sampling! This clip was shot before the march began on the corner of Hollywood Bouleard and Highland in the very heart of Hollywood. In this clip you can see a good sampling of the various signs people were carrying around. Some carried signs made by organizers while others carried signs of their own design. | 
20041106Hwood_Protest_MC06.mov | Added 11/7/2: This is another clip shot at the corner of H'wood and H'land. In it, I catch the reason I thought the local LAPD was being quite reasonable in covering us. They had a flock of bicycle cops on us and that was it for the beginning of the march. This would change when protesters surrounded the army recruitment center on the corner of Sunset and La Brea. Riot cops showed up and we were all threatened with arrest if we didn't clear the parking lot. So, like good little sheeple, we cleared out. I have video of the riot cops and will have it posted in the next few days. I also muse in the clip that the city closed down one of the most major roads in LA, just for us protesters. Kind of cool, really. | 
20041106Hwood_Protest_MC07.mov | Added 11/7/2: This is a short clip of the police chopper that was following us all afternoon. It was fine, at first, but then the damn thing flew so close that we couldn't hear the speakers talk before the march began. It seemed almost like they were trying to drown them out on purpose. Considering my miniDV camera could zoom in to a close up on a person in a window 10 or 15 flights up, I'd say they didn't have to hover right above the buildings along H'wood Blvd... |
WhenTelemarketersGoWrong.mov | This is a great little clip I shot of our answering machine as it plays a recording left by a computerized telemarketer. By the sound of it, the computer was sufferring from a bit of RAM jam because, well, watch the clip and you'll hear what I mean... | 
my_clogged_sink.mov | The sink in my apartment has a history of clogging. I think the pipes in my building are too small or my pig isn't good enough at slicing up the food I dump down the drain. Either way, our kitchen occasionally floods and before it did the last time, I shot this clip. |
