One of my Twitter followers recently sent me a link to the following YouTube video. Validation is a fable about the magic of free parking. It was created back in 2006 by Kurt Kuenne, an innovative filmmaker and composer of both fiction and documentary films. The short stars T. J. Thyne (from Bones) and Vicki Davis and won a number of awards (see below). Check it out, it just might make you smile.
