I'm watching my X-Files DVDs here at work--yay, Sunday!--and I stared at the display for a few minutes, wondering why it looked odd. Then I realized it was square, and I finally thought, "Oh! Before letterbox! How quaint!"
Buffy! If I wanted to fight, you could tell by the being dead already.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
David, I'm very sorry we missed you guys.
It would've been lovely, but I really didn't expect you to do anything except rest and recuperate.
The tour was successful enough that they want me to repeat it. So sometime next year I'll do another one.

Now tagless for your comfort.
msbelle, times like that make me glad we can tag team.
Owen just walked into the room where we are watching Family Guy and said, "They have a talking dog?"

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I want a talking dog! Also a cat with four ears!
I am so in awe of Msbelle. My mom was a single parent, but when I was little there were three other adults (of varying levels of sanity) in the household. Her parents weren't always the most stable, but at least if my uncle was awake (he worked nights) she cold count on a relatively sane person to watch me for awhile, and there was always someone home when I got out of school. Perhaps you should advertise for a mail order bride?!?

For no other reason than curiosity, I traced the Jacobite heirs through Wikipedia, all the way to the present-day heir presumptive who is a German princess in Bavaria.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Hec, 2 weeks ago I was in the largest indie record store in town (note: this is NOT the one in my neighborhood, yet it is still KICK-ASS), and they had a special display with all the 33 1/3 books.
Or, I assume it's supposed to hold all of the books, but yours and Corwood's weren't there, which made me happy, because it meant someone bought them.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I am heading to bed and hoping hoping hoping that NPR does not wake me with horror stories from the coast. Good thoughts to anyone with family and friends in the area, may everyone and all their homes be safe.

Oh, it's "Beyond the Sea"! Scully's Dad/General Hammond! So sad, so good. Ah, X-Files, in a world of disappointing TV, in your best moments nothing can transcend you.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

My brother bought the entire nine seasons a few weeks ago, thereby negating the need for me to do so. He's also come through in similar fashion on Blake's 7.
Oh! And he's very thoughtfully loaned me the first two Dexter books. (I have him covered for the DVDs.)
