  1. Anibal looks like Quincy
  2. I don't know. What I want to know is who shtole the shtrawberries?
  3. My guess is they modify the machines. I think technically that makes them ineligible for warranty, but when DVD players are $50 or so who really cares about warranties?
  4. I remember when Hod O'Brien used to run a club in Greenwich Village with Roswell Rudd in the '70s, St. James Infirmary.
  5. Does that band play at...
  6. Edward Kennedy Ellington Edward M. Kennedy Mary Jo Kopechne
  7. I'd search around to see if there's a hack for your model. But if it's not PAL-compatible it won't do you any good for European DVDs.

  9. He looks as savory as ever.
  10. Little Willie John Wee Willie Winkie Winky Dink (and you)
  11. Lou looks like latter-day Bill.
  12. There are instructions online for how to hack a Philips DVD player to make it Region 0 (all region), just search with your model # and something like deregionalize. I've done it to two units. It involves entering codes through the remote while the tray is open. The Philips DVD players are PAL-compatible, but they can only sell region 1 in the U.S. (regardless of what Best Buy told you), then you have to hack it yourself to make it all-region. I have lots of Region 2 (UK) and Region 4 (Brazil) DVDs that I watch all the time on my Philips. The right hack code should solve your problem and leave you with an all-region NTSC/PAL player. The regions have to do with licensing restrictions of content. If somebody is selling an all-region Philips on Ebay, they've likely bought one with factory settings, then hacked it and upped the price for something you can easily do yourself.
  13. Dave Lambert and Gil Evans put those charts together, but that doesn't make them good.
  14. Your cat's named Tim?
  15. Aren't you glad you used Dial?
  16. http://sudo.3.pro.tok2.com/Quest/cards/M/MilesDavis/DoubleImage_x.html It's fantastic. At times the rhythm section really stretches out into territory reminiscent of Circle and Afternoon of a Georgia Faun.
  17. Man between two women
  18. Rudy Burckhardt Jacob Burckhardt Jacob's Brothers
  19. Kafka and Beckett are full of affirmation. You just need a microscope.
