jimi, I just figured they went to the same Klingon market to buy their knives....

Theodosia ... could turn out to be nothing more than that but the way they seemed to emphasise the knife suggest there's more to it. We shall have to wait and see, I guess.

Shit. IMDb.com have become Evil. I was catching up on the past "gossip" and ran across a honking great casting spoiler. Avoid Feb 14.

Anyway, do modern unAmericans use "gammon" all the time?

Yes. Or at least, no, because I don't eat much meat, but gammon-and-pineapple was popular enough when I was wee, and I think it's still around today. We tend to only use the word bacon to mean bacon rashers, I think. But I'm not big with the meat eating, so I may be talking pants.

Still haven't watched The Office. The clips and trailers I've seen do look very, very good, but I physically can't make myself watch it because of the watch-from-the-hall thing. I've worked in places just like that.

Damn, that show sounds wonderful. I wish I had BBC America.

Says the girl who watched all four episodes of Contest Searchlight last night. I think there still might be people who don't know it was a complete and total parody.

Ooer, that sounds wicked funny. Probably never see it in Oz but you never can tell.

Edited to say: it's a shame that 3rd-grade English is a 4th language for the the writer of those plot synopsii synopseses whatchamacallits

Edited again, after reading that ::laugh::sentence::cough::, to say: people in stone houses shouldn't throw glass. Or something.

I've sat in my own house. on my own. Watching The Office and I've had to cover my face with my hands and go "Noooooooooooo!" really very loudly indeed, so i couldn't hear what was going on.

It's brilliant.

{Angus}, I watched it tonight, and was crying in the end too.. even my brother's eyes were tearing up. Seems I cry more about sad things in movies and tv when I'm generally feeling happy in real life. When real life is sad, tv just doesn't seem that important anymore.

I like conflicted Spike. I think the whole rape scene last season was a mistake, but at least his crisis of confidence now gives it a counterpoint.

Hi Plasmo...glad to know I'm not the only crybaby.

Angel tonight had one major problem for me: not enough Connor! Also, I thought the writing wasn't nearly as sharp as last week's. I did quite like Gwen though. X-Men much?

Angus, in the NAFDA thread, we ended up dubbing her Electrocutie! And yes, she's mere smith's character, so we're pretty sure it's an X-Men reference.

I jsut can't deal with Connor's hair. When I was stranded at the bus station last Friday, there were several college-aged guys also waiting who had the same floppy hair. I wanted to go up to them and say, "In the name of Vincent Karthieser, cut your hair!"
