Thanks IanG: Amazon reviews of A Million Random Digits with 100,000 Normal Deviates.

"If you liked Finnegan's Wake, you'll love this!"

Make sure you try "Surprise Me!"

If you liked that, you'll love the IMDB discussion page for Traffic Crossing Leeds Bridge (made in 1888, lasts 2 seconds): "Roundhay Garden Scene is the best movie of the 1888!! If I was Oscar, I would give my self to Roundhay Garden Scene.. but I`m not.."; "This movie was boring as hell. it was hard to sit trough it."; "Leeds Bridge is action packed and I felt my adrenaline pumping when I saw that horse move." (http://imdb.com/title/tt0343112/board/nest/22457279)

Excellent reviews

promoting "Deviants" as "normal" just encourages our children to rebel against the authority of their parents and that of our lord and savior

Well, how do you describe smiling, shaking one's head, and rolling one's eyes?

Er, good question, online. "Rueful" carried a sense of "regretful" with it - I wondered if you knew the book of old!

That's joyful!

I like your new default icon a lot, btw.

It's great stuff.

Glad you like the icon! I thought perhaps they should have been Federation minions, but the text seemed to suit that picture so well.

Oh god I had a poll about nuances of 'bemused' a while back.

Yes, I vaguely recall one. That was you? Well, you may have to do one on "rueful" now... :)

We had a copy of that in our library at work.

Incidentally, I was wondering if you were a fan of South Pacific, since your invitation to "Enhance my evening" makes me think of the song "Some Enhancèd Evening".

Cool!

"Enhance my evening" is a line of Garak's from DS9: he invites Bashir to sit down and join him - to enhance his evening.

*snort!* I wish Hurley was a character in a different programme. Because I love Hurley, but I got bored with Lost.

I've been bored with Jack from episode 1, but I'm still enjoying the series. And Greg's totally obsessed. :-P

BTW I have Rome DVDs we just started to watch this week and it's thumbs up!

I'm so glad you're enjoying 'Rome'! Season 2 is in production!
