Surgery Sift
This queue was inspired by Snoozedoctor, who encouraged me to “go medical” after the sleep sift. There were some very interesting comment threads in some of them, and spurred some other interesting posts.

Sleep
Dreams and sleep have challenged our understanding for all time, and it never seems that we get enough of either. All time easiest avatar, just turned down the lights and closed my eyes.

WSFT RadioSift
A radio queue on a video site? I had my doubts, but was happy with what I dug out of the Siftmines.

Sift Patrol
This was probably one of the hardest to put together, because it’s so difficult to find anything other than videos that (A)depicted police officers as evil oppressors of the people or (2) mawkish, maudlin tributes to heroes. Tried to focus on their daily challenges and as usual something oldey for Swampgirl’s Vintage Channel.

Love and Sex
Kept this one pretty loose, so to speak. Anything with “love” in the title qualified. Still, really couldn’t find what I was looking for. Such is love.

Cryptids and Cryptozoology
This was great fun. Just because you’ve never caught one, doesn’t mean they don’t exist! These mythical creatures can never be disproven, that’s their beauty!

One last look at the wonderful world of big-bore internal combustion before everyone switches to whisper quiet hybrid eco whatsits. Vroom!
