Will someone please talk me out of buying the dvd set of Planet Earth? It's really discounted over at Amazon right now (only $36!), but I have it burned on disc off of the HD channel, so I don't reallllly need it.
I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Does it have $36 of stuff you don't already have on your homemade discs?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Kathy, at some point in your life, you're going to buy a BluRay player, and then you'll have to buy it all over again.

Such a good point, Tom! Right--no more buying dvds that I'll be replacing on BluRay eventually anyway. I probably will end up getting that player when LotR gets its inevitable release on BluRay.

So...a gymslip girl is...a girl who wears a gymslip? Then why was it in all caps?
I am a bra woman.

Supposedly, Fellowship is out this Christmas season.
I'm not holding my breath, though - that stupid Tolkien Estate lawsuit has brought all LotR movie-related stuff to a great big "WHAT?" state.

Do you'all smell something burning? Because I am. Um, literally.

Um, Gud? Maybe more stop-drop-and-rolling and less posting at this point?

yes, "gymslip" is a slang term for a young girl. I think that it was in all caps just because it was the first word in the article.
