Assd. Stuff

AAAAAAAHHHHHHH! *squees and runs in circles* I thought George was a one-off guest star! Claude! Bad guy being seduced to the mutant side of the force! Claude! Baby Hiro! CLLLLAAAAAAUUUUUUDE!

What I love, love, love about this show is how they answer questions - they even *tell* you which questions they're going to answer - and then they open up five more cans o' worms. What makes the mutants (for lack of better verbiage, I'm slipping into X-Men terminology) work willingly with the company? Does George know? Who was Claude protecting?

And damn, that "I think you're better than tha-" *BLAM!* scene got me right in the gut. I'm with M: how did he *survive* that?

In short, Heroes rocks more than a geology college in a quarry.

And yet more musings on my stuff, complete with a "I think I know what I'm going to do, but it helps to have validation" poll.

I'm setting up new shelves for my DVD/VHS collection, and as I move things, I'm culling out old VHS tapes that will be donated to the library where I grew up. Now, some things are easy to dump, because I have them on DVD. It's the ones I don't that I wonder whether I should keep or not. (Bear in mind that things set aside for the library won't actually be delivered until around Christmastime, so I can always fish something out if I really need it.)

[Poll #936225]

We will return to our regularly scheduled Who squee soonish. If nothing else, one of the new shelves has become a "fandom du jour" shrine with all the videos and tie-in books. V. handy to have them all at once; I'm thinking to see if the DWMs will fit somewhere there as well.

I got rid of all my blank VHS tapes except for Farscape: PK Wars, and some assorted tapes to reuse for catching stuff while I'm not around. I kept the VHS pro tapes that I wasn't likely to get on DVD any time soon, like The Matrix. Frankly, the only stuff I've missed is the Birds of Prey TV show, and even then, I'm surviving just fine without it. Plus it cut down on my clutter a WHOLE hell of a lot.

Thankfully, Goodwill will take donations of blank tapes, so I didn't have to just pitch them in the garbage.

By the time I get around to pitching my formerly-blank tapes, they won't be in any fit state to recycle.

I keep waffling. I know I can get any of the Disneys on DVD any time I dial up amazon or half.com. But on the other hand, Hey Mr. Producer and The Regard of Flight aren't on DVD, so it's easy to say "keep them."

But "Funny Face" and "Lethal Weapon," both of which I have on tape but don't watch much... will I miss them? Do I even need to replace them on DVD, or should I just stick 'em on my Netflix queue if I ever feel the urge to see them again?

(Oy, I should have made that a poll answer, except I just thought of it.)
