Check your closet. Most likely your dollars were spent on socks, undies, shirts, blouses, and dresses which are made in China, India, Phillipines or anywhere except USA.This is hardly the case at our next tour stop Thread.
Here you can purchase environmental friendly, edgy and super stylin ‘Made in the USA’ clothes-novelty items-hand made jewelry from Rochester, Finger Lakes, Brooklyn, San Francisco…

UPDATE 5/14: I tried compressing the original video a second time on Youtube and still looks crappy. Me thinks Youtube or my camera needs to be modified in settings. Directions don’t do jack. The film was shot at 640×480 (whic is its max capacity) if anyone is curious.
Thats the best I can do at the moment unless this bug is fixed.
Reminds me of the time Rumsfield said ‘”As you know, you have to go to war with the Army you have, not the Army you want.”
Thanks for the heads up DragonFlyEye.
OptimusPrime, your link is broken. It points to http://rochesterturning.com/2007/05/10/b-k-w-t-h-r-e-a-d/www.myspace.com/threadrochester , as opposed to http://www.myspace.com/threadrochester .
This shop looks interesting. Nice post.
Once again, a great post.
This is a great idea for a store. I’m frequently annoyed that there’s no choice to buy American, and when there is, it’s really hard to find.
Your link is broken, BTW. Take out the “rochesterturning” part, or make sure you start it with “http://”.
Very cool. One suggestion, though: your video pixelates because you’re moving too fast. Either YouTube or your camera is not happy with the heavy movement. You should probably see if you can shoot at 320×240, 30FPS and see how it uploads, then try the full 640×480, 30FPS and see which one it likes better.
Either way, definitely slow down the pans where possible.
I am printing out this suggestion for future use. The camera is limited in capabilities (Canon Powershot A530) but one of these days I should whip out the directions (over 160 pages) and learn more. Thanks for the input!
