One word – Betamax
Better quality than VHS, and survived in the Pro market far longer than a lot of people know.
We were a Betamax family. My dad even had the video recorder. All of our home movies are on Beta.
We had a decrepit betamax player in the old place. About one in three tapes worked in it, it was that old. A toploader too.
We also had tons of Betacam decks (and BetacamSP, and Digital Betacam), which is the pro tape you are thinking of, Van. The first Betacam stuff was based on the same transports and basic tapestock as the consumer Betamax, but was not in fact cross-compatible.
Sex with vegetables and animals is mildly filthy.
It depends on the vegetables.
Cj for Simon Pegg at his comedic best, stick the two seasons of Spaced in your netflicks queue.
Have I gone on and on yet about “Slings and Arrows” here?
Wow, I hate to see the Canadians hid this gem from me for so long. Three seasons of six episodes each and boy do they pack a lot in.
The best part is they had a plan starting out, so the series did not hang out for five seasons, limping along and having contrived plots between what they wanted to actually say. They wrote it with a mind to having exactly the three seasons.
A snowfall warning has been issued for tonight. I’m really getting tired of winter.
CP: Busted — Matchbox Twenty
Rather appropriate right now. FFF.
*think good thoughts*
Mmmmmmmmm beer. I could really use one right now. :)
That is all.
CP: Texarkana — R.E.M.
It will soon be over TEB.
Maybe you can just kip through the bad weather.
cough.
I just might do that, Van ;)
Nothing wrong with a little bit of pumpkin-sheep lovin’…
oh wait… maybe there is….
And … isn’t a pumpkin a fruit? It has seeds. What’s that rule again?
Nice Supersprint clone called Gene Rally:

Mmmmm Bacon.

CJ: No! No! No! No! :roll:
I dunno, it probably smells better than KY Jelly..
cough
What, TEB? Too salty?
Just… ewwww!
We’ve discovered TEB’s revulsion point.
I think even the most hardcore bacon lover would think twice before applying that… well, anywhere, really.
I’m kinda proud to have had such an effect although, sadly, I don’t actually like bacon all that much myself and I think it might be an April Fool’s ad.
They worked that in a day early, no fair!
Bunny, I definitely look forward to meeting you, when you’re in town.
BTW, JohnBoze – I’m guessing you were relatively unaffected by the insane weather up there?
Relatively so, wet and sloppy is hardly the apocalypse.
I drive on a bridge over the Mississippi at least twice daily and it looks pretty darn high, but it would need to be actually apocalyptic to reach my house a mile away. (and of significant elevation above.
Cj, did you seriously say “salty”?! LOL
What? Who? Me? I’d never say something so naughty. I believe you are mistaken. ;)
Why does the yuckiest guy in every situation decide that I am the girl of his dreams?
“wet and sloppy is hardly the apocalypse”
I think JB just won this week’s quotable of the week.
My goodness is he ignorant of your sexuality?
It’s a sad day when you realise you were never the stuff of dreams.
Ignorant, indeed!
Van, I think you are dreamy.
yuckiest wha … ??? Did I hear someone calling for me?
Wow. “Night on Earth”. Hadn’t thought about that one in a while. I recall being marginally amused by some scenes. I wonder if the passage of time may have changed my perception of it.
Palooza material?
Deadpan on Earthapolooza ?
JOe = also dreamy.
Really – I think I have dreams about all of you. You must all be dreamy!
So long as you don’t mean a Kafkaesque nightmare. ;)
If I wake up as a giant cockroach in the morning, somebody’s going to have some ‘splainin to do…..

Loving the dream conversation. :-)
TEB: Awesome! I’ll be out that way (well, back in SoCal) by then. I’d love to come, but I don’t know whether I’ll be working, or whether I’ll have transportation.
I had to submit quarterly reports today. There was much stressing and worrying, but I got them all in before 5:00. I realized too late that I never looked to see if any of my new students had beginning scores on the standard English test on record. I’ll have to report that next quarter. :-(
Actually – I’d have to admit that my dreams are much too pleasant and sharing them anywhere on a public forum would only get me in trouble …
Okay, time for me to turn off the computer.
Tomorrow morning, my team and I leave for a three-day retreat in Key Largo. I will probably have no Internet access while I’m there, so I’ll talk to you when I get back. :-)
Good night and good day tomorrow, Amy!
Cj w/ the “salty” and the dreams . . .
Dreams of giant pretzels?

EssBee – Re: Going out of business
Well duh! There’s a business plan that wasn’t thought through.
Like they were going to find enough virgins to fill a mega store. Geesh!
What?
*listens intently to producer through ear piece*
Not actually selling Virgins?
*turns back to camera*
Right. Ignore the previous post.
I used to work for Virgin when I lived in So. Cal. I worked for the gaming division in tech support.
Yes… I was an employee of … … … Virgin Games, Interactive Entertainment
Gotta love that name eh…
“Virgin Tech Support, this is Cj. How may I help you?”
And I bet you were doing it in the breathy voice too…
A bit quiet today.
We’re in the unshow, Van.
