no alarms and no surprises, please

Right, bored now. Technology hates me and is out to get me. My car's in with the panelbeaters being welded and sealed against the damp which habitually infests it, causing the insides of the windows to fog up unpredictably so I have to drive using sonar. Which I don't have. Memo to self, become part-bat. Unless it's dolphins which use sonar? Or ( Read more... )

I'm now into the third season of The Guild.

Ah, crunchy bite-sized Guild episodes, you simply have to finish the packet. I'd guess you hadn't made the Wil Wheaton connection because of (a) the beard, and (b) the bit where he's playing dead against type. Or, of course, (c), the intervening fifteen years or so may also have something to do with it.

We finished the whole packet season 3 last night. On to season four soon!

Aw c'mon, rollergoth in the last scene was a hoot. The whole episode has so much genius crammed into it my head almost sploded.

I was going to suggest replacing your speakers with those from the public library, but they probably don't have any.

If it was me I'd probably unplug them, smooth out the cables, run the cables so they're not near any power cables, and plug 'em in again, all of which would prove futile and result in me having to buy new speakers. One way to check if the speakers really do need inhuming is to plug them into the EL's machine and see if they still misbehave.
