I feel rather petty for saying this, but years along, I still want to dope-slap anyone who comes up to me insisting that that Chris Bliss three-ball-juggling-to-the-Beatles video is the greatest thing since sliced bread. I really should be long, long over this. I'm not.

Well, I finally have a way to deal with it: someone has finally uploaded some clips from Michael Moschen's "In Motion" special for PBS, which he filmed about 15 years ago, around the time of his MacArthur Genius Grant. My statement to the Chris Bliss fans will now be as follows: "Please watch this video, and then tell me if you still think Bliss is hell on wheels."
