Printer

Looks like my latest purchase will be a shiny new printer!

Old one (which is old) has a problem where it keeps telling me the cradle won't move (when it will) - this according to online techie forums, is probably an issue with the gears inside, and probably not fixable. Since several places sell printers at, like, £30 at the moment, and I could find even cheaper ones second hand, I don't think I have a real problem.

I think there is a curse on my Works of Isengard!

Lord of the Dance

After the many many hours of happy joy I got from watching and, amazingly, rewatching Riverdance, I decided I may as well go and get more of the same for some variety, and ordered myself Lord of the Dance.

I watched it with my Elves, especially Rávo, who is a complete Irish dancing freak and can't get enough of the stuff. Oh, we laughed! How we laughed!

I hereby rename Lord of the Dance The Michael Flatley P3nis Show!!

Granted, he is a fantastic dancer, and he really knows how to hold the audience and perform on stage with charisma. But it begs for Rocky Horror style audience participation, it really does!

( More thoughts - possible spoilers but I don't think you watch Lord of the Dance for the plot. )

In conclusion: I'm glad I bought it, and probably will watch some of the sequences again plenty, but Riverdance was far superior. My intention now is to buy Dancing on Dangerous Ground and avoid Feet of Flames. Rávo emphatically agrees with me.
