So...we have a bunch of DVDs that need homes. The catch is that none of them have cases because said cases have been destroyed by a certain cat who is currently On the List. ND decided to take this opportunity to replace some of the DVDs with updated versions or BlueRays, so we now have duplicates. Fear not--the movies themselves are perfectly good. If you would like to adopt one or more of these poor, case-less movies, drop me an email at my profile addy and I will put them together into generic disk sleeves and mail them to you.

And...we have one copy WITH case of Buffy season one. (This one was not touched by the cat but is simply a duplicate we've been meaning to give away for awhile.)
First come, first serve--and if you want 'em all, that's even better because I can just mail them all at once.
The localistas move fast! Kat and Sean have claimed 'em. Thanks!
I've created two new categories of Buffista Links. Please go over there and submit links. Also, have a look over the other links in case you see something redundant, irrelevant, or dead.

We were at 33 room nights - they extended the block to be Thursday-Saturday. The deadline for reserving within the guaranteed block is May 26, which is not the deadline for the 40-room minimum.

Waxman-Markey pits consumer protection against climate protection.
Well there are well known ways to price carbon without hurting consumers and workers, Waxman-Markey's consumer protection approach is one that turns this into a zero sum game.
