Druxy, a dime will get you a dollar that within a year or two ALL players will handle Blu-rays. It's just the nature of the beast.
Speaking, as we are, of Blu-ray discs:I was more than thrilled with the quality of the newish BD of "Grease" (The Bobby Rydell Edition). Why it's called the "Bobby Rydell Edition" is beyond me, but it is called that.

MLK, Jr."He who is not angry when there is just cause for anger is immoral. Why? Because anger looks to the good of justice. And if you can live amid injustice without anger, you are immoral as well as unjust." St. Thomas AquinasWas Tommy Aquinas on Twitter today?

There's some truly cringe-worthy coupling going on there right now. And, sadly(?), it looks likes it has been set up to induce cringing. Which couples are you talking about? I often ff thru the show and i actually find jackie and owen sort of interesting (if that is who you were referring to).

IN ORDER TO MAKE A MORE PERFECT PASTA...Der B and I went down to the farmer's market, found some nice spring onions, radishes (oooh, purple and pink and white!), fresh new potatoes and snow peas, and then headed over to Nurture. Nope, they didn't have any semolina flour. But before they realized where they recognized me from, they suggested I try the SuperFresh grocery store. Then they realized where I work, blushes abounded, and der B smoothed everything over by purchasing some country pate.Up to SuperGiant. Nope, we don't carry semolina. Strange. On up to Superfresh (there was a notary public across the highway we needed to see, so it was worth the trip). They indeed had the semolina. They also had Lawry's Lemon Pepper, which der B loves and we don't carry. Coming back home, I decided we could drop by the other two supermarkets. Safeway had the semonlina... at a higher price than SuperFresh. Food Lion did not have any semolina... but carried the Lemon Pepper... for less than we paid at SuperFresh.
For those who are following the story of Chris Engen (Adam on The Young & The Restless), the guy who quit the show because he was being forced to kiss a man, here is his response:http://blogs.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendId=85598263&blogId=491217751
Back from the Kansas City Barbecue - the house shaking has reached epic proportions - it literally feels like a 7.0 earthquake every two minutes. Pictures are crooked and there's no sense in straightening them until these oafs are done. I'm told that today is it for the big machines - we shall see. If today isn't it for the big machines then tomorrow they get a call from me and a bill for piano tuning, aspirin, and whatever else I think of.
