Yeah, I can't wait for the Year of the Whopper, though Year of the Depend Adult Undergarment does have that special ring to it.
... and providing for the nearly-dead, TVCs for funeral director's are starting to pop up on the screen. Maybe we could start up The Dead Channel, as a companion to The Living Channel

Great to see this treasure trove. It may well make life a little easier for me as I am proposing a research project for 2009-2010, to research and begin writing a history of television in New Zealand 1985-2010. It would pick up from Robert Boyd-Bell's 1985 history.
The world is awash with books on NZ film (I have reviewed at least 5 in the past year) but the television history is very incomplete.
I have talked to Russell about this and I approaching my faculty for some seeding money for interviews, stills etc.
I don't know if there is anyone out there with similar plans but I intend to make all my material, once gathered, freely available -
That'd be the 2 Euro shop and das Lager where David is , please tell me there's no such thing
I remember seeing a 99c Shop in Toledo, Ohio last year.

"Even Hamilton"? You almost lost a customer there, David--unless you mean Hamilton, Ontario.

There once was a great one in Cuba Street in Wellington, across from Slow Boat Records--once bought a near entire collection of Al Green on vinyl, which remains safely stored away.

To be honest though, Borders isn't a shadow of it's past.
I agree. Visited there on Tuesday and it seemed a bit down-at-heel--great gaps in the magazine section and unexciting DVD specials. Upper Queen Street visits will never be the same,.

Such sad news this morning, with Real Groovy going to the wall. What of life's great pleasures has been taken from us.

An interesting item from BBC online yesterday http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/7664088.stm, suggesting that 'Almost 75% of music pirates would stop if told to by their ISP, the survey of 1,500 UK consumers found'.
Excellent Media 7 taping last night, Russell.

To play devil's advocate for a moment, how about someone having the balls to ask the business lobbyists why the only form of welfare they never have any problem with is corporate welfare pointed at their beneficiary-members?
I'm with you on this one, Craig. The free market ain't so free anymore, but comes at a cost to taxpayers and wage earners?
Russell: I may be jumping the gun but I can get to the Media 7 screening next Tuesday. Could you put me down for a cumfy seat?
