Title: Always Keep an Edge on Your Knife
Song by: The Corb Lund Band
Rating: PG-13. Gen.
Spoilers for all episodes of Supernatural through 4.14. Yes, there is actually at least one clip from every single episode of SPN in this vid.
Summary: A few words of advice from the Winchesters - and the Corb Lund Band. Basically, a good sharp edge is a man's best hedge against the vague uncertainties of life.
Moderate amount of crack - just the right quantity for a MOnday.
Created for la_perkins & friends as part of Sweet Charity (Fall, 2008).

( +Yes, a good sharp edge is a man's best hedge against the vague uncertainties of life!"> )

Watch it on YouTube (I reommend selecting the HD version and letting the vid load before watching, so it doesn't lag)

Note: This video was ridiculously fun to edit. From the first time I heard the song, courtesy of la_perkins, I knew it would be adorably Winchestery, but it wasn't until I started working on it that I knew that it had to have clips from every single episode of SPN to date. But culling about 60 hours of Show into a three minute video was a bizarre and fascinating challenge, because it meant that sometimes I could pull the essence of a moment of Show, and other times the moment I was taking from a certain episode was almost at random - there's just over one second of Impala from S1 around the two-minute marker and I think I want to give a prize to the person who's the first to figure out which episode it comes from.

Hmmmm....

I have a spare copy of the S2 Companion book - and I'll get it signed by the person of the winner's choice at Eyecon this month. So yeah - first person to figure out which S1 episode the one-second clip of the Impala comes from wins it. :D I am crossposting this, so only answers in comments on my pear_vodka livejournal count.

Thanks so much to roguebitch, deirdre_c, sabaceanbabe and la_perkins herself for insightful beta comments and squee!
