You guys are all lightweights. Everyone knows that you organize by obi color - pink, blue, yellow, red......pink, blue, yellow, red!!!!

Anyone in the UK (or elsewhere) heard any rumblings about the 'Dalziel & Pascoe' series being released to DVD?

Enlightening comments......think we'll hold off on the DVD recorder for now and have a look at Tivo. Thank you.

I spent hours this past weekend fast forwarding & rewinding through 2 dozen tapes trying to find a couple of PBS mysteries, etc we'd taped here & there. The old clunker machine is about to die anyway, so it might be time to get a recordable DVD. All I want is something that that I can record some shows on, watch & then erase. No need for all sorts of additional bells and whistles that'll allow you to brew coffee, etc because we won't use 'em. Is there a decent mid-price, dependable unit out there.....one that won't have blur problems that I'd read about w/some fast action events -- or is that no longer a problem)?

What's on the menu? Ordinarily, something like: Grapefruit Brulee with Fruit Salsa Fresh Melon & Fruit Salad Herbed Clam Chowder Nova Scotia Smoked Salmon w/vodka sour cream Mianiature Lump Crab Cakes Grilled Mushroom & Blue Cheese Omelet w/link sausage and roasted home fries Raspberry-Stuffed French Toast w/fresh berries Eggs Benedict w/cured Canadian bacon Smoked Salmon & Spinach Benedict Two poached eggs with Kendall Brook smoked trout and fresh spinach w/herbed hollandaise on an English muffin. But when you come in, it's: slathered with KC Masterpiece...and an old scratchy Brookmeyer LP playing in the background.

It's a beautiful cd.....nice relaxing mix of lightly swinging numbers that fills the room. Mraz shines. If I owned a nice restaurant, I'd have it playing in the background during Sunday brunch. Have yet to be disappointed by a Venus.

Hey, no need to send yours out & about....just give him the day off and I'll send my new driver Ann out to your place w/the goods. Maybe you'll invite her in for a spot of tea.

That soitenly woiks too!

Just think, if only they'd gone and slapped 'One for Five' on 'Blue Trails' it wouldn't be necessary for folks to waste...er, spend their money on the Bossa Nova Bacchanal RVG for that one splendid track.

Yeah, particularly when the in-laws come to hang for six weeks. B-)

I'm surprised that these new 24-bit jobbers haven't started trickling into the usual spots over here...or have they?

Sacrifice Toshiba masterpieces in order to hang for a night with a throng of Texas dames with big hair?? Have you flipped?

??? Fool! Away with you! Soon we'll be drop kicking those shivering donkeys into the snowdrifts!

Possibly.......but there could be a one-time 'Inaugural Food, Booze & Camel Filter Luxury Tax' levied on goods in your shopping cart at checkout.

The will stipulates that I be parked right next to you.....spinning your favorite LP for all eternity. B-)

Thanks....we're good to go!

Need some extra $$ to purchase this rare 'Stegmaier Beer Gold Medal Polka' 78 rpm. Need a burn?

http://www.plosin.com/milesAhead/Toshiba.html TOCJ-66225? What has happened to this guy's site?? It used to be a pretty dependable orderly resource but it looks as though someone hacked in & trashed it. Half of the catalogue numbers under Spring 2004 are wrong. Anyone accessing a better online site these days?

Forget it! They're going to the triple reinforced vault w/me when I expire!

I've sent one back.

.....& thanks couw.

On my older TOCJ copy (5885) there are several clicks on 'Phil T. McNasty's Blues' between 3:13-3:18 and at least one on 'More of the Same' at about 6:39. Never noticed these on the last cd player. Any chance that someone with either the JRVG or BN Transition Sessions might run a quick check to see if they're there? Thank you.
