October 25, 2010 – Sometimes travel doesn’t go the way you expect it to.

August 13, 2010 – DVD o’ rama.
It’s amazing the DVDs I’ve stacked up. I thought I’d throw these three in a group together, since they represent the randomness of my DVD collection in total. Future RIDs will be more thematic, or singular DVDs that mean something … Continue reading

August 9, 2010 – Attention, Attention – Ridding things in the compound…
Today, I’m getting rid of the first three seasons of MASH DVDs. Yeah – great show. But WHEN EXACTLY was I gonna watch these again? This might be the easiest of several DVD purges I’ll have – considering I haven’t … Continue reading
