Sauvie Island Moon Rocket Factory - excerpts from "Weird America"

"You gotta have more fun than the bad guys!"

-- Tom Kennedy (1960-2009)

Tom Kennedy shared kindness, brought joy and fostered understanding wherever he went. He inspired people from every walk of life to do what they loved with all of their heart. Tom was an artist, humanitarian, diplomat, philosopher and mentor. He was a man of truth, strength and peace. His gentle soul left this world far too soon, but his spirit lives on in everyone he touched. Tom was a dear friend to us. This video is dedicated to his memory.

Independent filmmaker Chuck Cirino loves to explore the underground. Over the years, he and his talented crew have documented very odd things, truly strange places and wildly creative people. They have shared glimpses into universes that flourish outside of the mainstream. The syndicated series, "Weird TV" and "Weird America" feature many of these adventures.

The "World of Art Cars" is an exploration of these amazing machines and the unique people that put them together. This footage was taken a number of years ago in Houston, Texas during the annual pilgrimage of masterpieces on wheels.
