#789

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0151137/

Purchased Joan of Arc (1999). Number 789 in my dvd collection.

I purchased it because it was simply the best film that I didn't have. So, for a split second my DVD collection was complete, but alas, now I need more.

Jolly good film. Milla Jovovich.... fine actress, have her scrubbed and brought to my tent.

Red Hot Pawn.

Chess keeps popping up on TV... West Wing, rewatching Blade Runner and others.

Spurred me on to playing some online chess. I used to play a lot of chess when younger, I was realllllly bad at it.

Create an account and challenged 'Orac', see for yourself. This is a really great free service. You get a mail when it is your turn to move and little onscreen chess sets showing where you are upto.

Geeky.

Coincidence and DVDs.

So, out on a shopping expedition whilst waiting for the car to have new brake thingies fitted and I find myself in WH Smith.

The film I really wanted to record last night ,but couldn't as I was recording the other side, was for sale.... £1.97, kerching.

Shadow of the Vampire, http://imdb.com/title/tt0189998/, looks great and not sure why I have not heard of it before.

Love these little coincidences, proves there is a god of TV.

Welcome.

They, whoever 'they' are, say that blogs are the fastest growing part of the internet. I would like to think that this phenomena is largely attributed to me as this is my millionth [1] blog.

I sort of missed having the other one these few weeks, so here we go again. I have used a generic name though... to attract [2] both Discworld peeps and Roundworld peeps that I know.

As before, just silly photo, observations and mad ramblings.

Pip Pip!
