laserdiscs
by Alan 26 Jan '04

26 Jan '04

I've got a laserdisc from Last Tango in Paris hanging on my wall. It's pretty much the same technology as the CD but I think there's an analogue element to the disc. I dunno. The university in my home town had a large collection of the discs and we could check out the player for free. The picture and overall quality was better than VHS, the only problem being that the discs were 2 sided so you had to stop at some point to flip it. They're beautiful to look at. _________________________________ www.psychicreform.com Change your mind. _________________________________ Things are more like they are now than they ever were before. --Zippy the Pinhead _________________________________

Pretty good campaign if they can even get those who hate the >product to advertise it!!! That's pretty clever. Since I've never had it before I guess I'll hold off on getting a shirt. If it's anything like vegemite I'm pretty sure I know which shirt I'd buy. >Marmite goes well; on toast, with cheese, fried eggs, making marmite swiss >roll snacks (v cheap and v cool for a party). All young kids seem to smell >of the stuff (and blackcurrant juice) and you can even get marmite flavour >crisps now. If you have never tried it, go and buy a jar but then again, I always thought that marmite was cool because it was, as the linked website above so eloquenlty states, a "by-product of the brewing process." Something about that appeals to me. I think I know a place I can get some.....I'll get the smallest size possible and see what's doing. >FUCK marmite, Bovril is far, far nicer and easier to spread Bovril is new to me. One site said it was basically salty liquid cow or something along those lines. Sounds lovely! >OK, f'ing boring afternoon at work, back to the databases and maybe even >some Orb? You don't have too long until the end of the day do you?
