Blogger has been real flaky as of late from the office. Yesterday's post I lost, like, um, teardrops in the rain—make that POSTDATA in the cache—after spending the entire morning tweaking the words. Went something like this:

Friday I took home a plastic bag of video cassettes to copy a training movies on my old VHS machines (from one that plays fine but whose REC button orders it instead to chew the tape, to another that does record and luckily without the buzzing sound accompanying any playback thereupon; two testaments to reliability from Sony's Mexican manufacturing facilities), and a co-worker hip to Asian cultural phenomena asks if I'm in for a weekend of Korean drama. How close she was, for, as it turns out, I would hunker down with the rest of the Office DVD's and be somehow so moved by the tragic end to the second of the six-episode seasons that I'd welcome the contrivances in the Christmas Special ultimately resolving the series as comedy.
