Here’s a best of video, 1998 (or 88?). The original source was VHS tape, then a DVD and then I converted it to Flash. Quality suffers in all those steps but the flash doesn’t take much space, so it’s shareable. Enjoy.

I have some episodes of the Cookin’ Cheap show sent to me by the great, kind and wonderful Chief Zabu ( chiefzabu@earthlink.net ) who has offered to make DVD copies for all who ask. I’ve converted the DVD’s to Flash Videos that you can watch in your browser.

If you’ve got some episodes that you want to share, please contact me, or Chief Zabu, or leave a comment here and we’ll figure out how to transfer them to the web.

The Flash videos below are far from high quality. Recorded off air to VHS tape. Transferred to DVD. Then I converted them to Flash in a two step process. Quality degrades at every step. It you want a quick reminder of what the show was, then the Flash vids aren’t that bad.
