Highlight of the day: The arrival of season one of Due South on DVD.

Disappointment of the day: Discovering that the DVD set doesn't include the pilot episode, and that furthermore it doesn't seem to be possible to get hold of the pilot at all.

Unsettling event of the day: Going to the RSFG pub meeting and having one of my old teachers turn up. Teachers aren't meant to have personal lives! Particularly ones with interests overlapping my own!

Thing I meant to write about several days ago: The surprising number of China Mieville lookalikes at the ICA generic modification talk last thursday. The shaven-headed yet well-dressed look is clearly in.

Horror of the day: Proboscis of doom.

What's so nasty about R1?

Apart from the fact that they never seem to do TV shows in WS......

There's nothing nasty about R1.

R2, however, has nasty chipmunked audio. So there ya go.

Only you notice this.

Not quite true. I know several others who notice as well. But almost true.

I don't notice the technically inferior R1 vid coding (less resolution). I might if I had a projector or a big fuck-off plasma TV, but even so, I doubt it.

Hmmm...

That's a particularly menacing picture of you Niall, you know.

'Angular face of mad scientist' I'd title it.

Yes...those eyes hint at unspeakable crimes.

Those eyes have been digitally altered to remove the laser vision.

Who's your old teacher? John?

Yes. He taught me IT for two years or so back when I was doing my GCSEs. Or possibly even before that. Which is fine, just somewhat unexpected. :)
