Missed opportunity

Aw man! You stop following something for a few months and suddenly it surges with interest and then quickly goes dormant again.
I love the story of the Mojave Desert phone booth. You see, once upon a time there was a phone booth that was placed in the middle of a desert, miles from paved road and any signs of civilization. The thing is…this was real!
The guy who basically made this phone booth known worldwide recently had a Kickstarter that would help him fund the ability to make a book out of his experience regarding the booth. I so would have contributed to this if I knew about it. Oh well. Hopefully I can still buy the book when it comes out.
But in addition to this Kickstarter campaign, the guy also did an interview with NPR regarding the booth. AND on top of that there's a new documentary that was recently dropped on YouTube of the booth. I’ve already watched the clips of a canceled documentary of it (it’s a lot of raw recordings for the doc), but this one is fully complete and worth the time watching it – if you’re interested in this amazingly awesome story of a phone booth next to a dusty dirt trail surrounded by nothingness.
