If they’re that cheap, I wonder why the industry even messes with this “regional” crap.

Mine was only $70.

geoff – I’m obviously way behind the times. Didn’t know you could get an all-region unit. ‘Spensive?

But I was thinking more about your TV/entertainment center/home theatre DVD player.

You just need one of the Philips all-region DVD players. I bought one to watch all my Region 3 martial arts movies, and it’s been great. It worked for the Super Banzai Video Show as well.

Geezer,

I like that. Especially the bop-top thingy that you can smack the shit out of when you really want to staple sumpin. I haven’t seen one of those bop-top thingies in a long time.

This is a stapler made when men were men! Cold steel. Hardened spring sinews. This is no girly-man stapler sitting on some LA Times fashion-reporters’ desk, that’s for damned sure.

I went to my desk and took a couple of pictures of my stapler.

I think it’s enough to give DinT a little woody.

I’ve been at my current job for 16 years. 5 years at an oil co, 5 years at a defense contractor (until peace broke out in 1990, dammit).

This is the first job I’ve ever had where I actually had to request another roll of Scotch tape.

I ran out. By God I actually ran out, at 15.5 years.

I wonder who will finish this roll off after I retire?

Thanks, Lokki, but they were really rude to me when I asked (one even called me an asshole! Can you believe that?) so I’ve moved on. I may write a poem about the experience someday.

Now I’m working on a french cheese site. At least the language is waaay easier.

Sorry about the thumb!
