UPDATED: Recorded to VHS
It was about time I re-posted this. The one that I've been updating is dated February of 2009.
I am now trying to focus on the Times 1000, since most of them I've had for months and months, a few of them for over a year. And, there are so many interesting movies that come on TCM that I seem to be collecting more and more titles in the "Just for pleasure" section. No matter how much I try it never gets any shorter. It's really becoming a problem. Then there is the ever-growing "Other Lists" section, and who knows when I will start in on those.
