Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That all sounds good, Fred! And askye, you sound great!

I had the funniest email chain this afternoon -- a friend asked if she could bring her girlfriend on our friends trip. Last time she asked, we said no, but that girlfriend was a nightmare (and we had no idea how much of one at the time). So the others of us got on a separate chain to confer and decided it was fine, and one wrote back to the whole with a super-formal committee report, and in short, it was good times.

Library is discarding 7 hardcover Dorothy Sayers Peter Wimsey books. Anyone interested? I can put a pic up on the FB page.

Yeah, kind of, but mailing hardcover books doesn't really sound worth it?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I'd ship media mail, probably like $3

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

I couldn't countenance shipping hardcovers to Australia, but I'm curious as to whether Gaudy Night is among them.

Yes it is.

I want them if it's literally less than $5. Thank you!

Gud, you cannot be worthless if you have value to someone. I value your intellect, your comments, your dedication to our community. I can't tell you what to feel, but I can tell you that you matter to me and I would miss you if you weren't here.

I'm watching yet another British reality show, this one where people who are thinking of moving to Europe are looking around at houses. In 90% of all these shows, from cooking to real estate to gardens, they use the same incidental music, such as the music they use for See The Lovely Countryside Our Tent Is In! on GBBO. Everything I've heard on GBBO I've heard in a half-dozen different shows, all from different production companies. Unless everybody gets their incidental music from the same sound shop.

I was once discombobulated to discover that the music on David Attenborough's Trials of Life sounded almost exactly like the music on Doctor Who during the period when John Nathan-Turner was producer. Near as I can tell it's wholly coincidental, the music was done by different people.
