Can't sleep, therefore watched this week's Supernatural (it's the first season for which I'm not weeks behind y'all), and I have a question: ( spoilers for 3x15, no spoiler for next week's finale, don't worry ) |

( pictures of the disaster under the cut ) How on earth did that happen, and how do I fix it? (I already tried rebooting, which usually works when the sound is off, but it didn't work for either problem this time). The weird thing is that the Eric Bana picture on my desktop does not look weird, but when I open a video file it does (looks distorted, I mean - it looks like they're all crouching or something *shakes head in disbelief*) ETA: you guys rock - it's all fixed now *hugs* :D

Cooking question, folks: how do you make a good meatloaf? What do you put in it? Do you have to mix it by hand? I tried to make one on Friday but was not impressed... and I promised my mother I would make her one (she has never had one, so...) Any idea? |

Rats... I was hoping to be able to watch Heroes before I go, but guess which codec showed up on the file I downloaded? My good ol' buddy divocodec... grrr... No Heroes for me then... Anyway, I'm off, see you in November! One more thing: please cheer the French team for me on Saturday when they'll be playing England! |

I just heard about Blackle this morning on the radio - it's the black version of google, officially designed to save energy, but come on, it looks good too *g* About Heroes, I have a question/speculation about Kensei: ( spoilers for Four months later ) |

Random info of the day: I was trying to get Family Guy and it asked for a codec (DivoCodec) to read it. Since it was the third times it was asked, I downloaded the codec, and according to my anti-virus system, there was a Trojan Horse in it. So: ETA: According to my brother, Avast is taking care of everything and I shouldn't have to do anything to get rid of the thing (I don't usually use Avast, hence the slight panic). But you can't be too careful.

 "In this popular series that ran from 1994 to 1996, Benton Fraser comes to Chicago in an attempt to find out who killed his father. After solving the murder, he decides to stick around and work for the local Canadian consulate. He has made friends with a local detective, Ray Vecchio, whose sister, Francesca, has a major crush on him. Although Vecchio is often confused by Benton's strange way of doing things and Benton is often confused by how things are done south of the border, the two get along famously, having an incredible on-screen chemistry." (tv.com) Ray Vecchio: What is it with you? Does dirt not stick to you? What, were you scotch-guarded at birth?

( Top Gear quotes ) Jeremy Clarkson: Anyone who washes their car either has a small mind, or an unhappy marriage. Richard Hammond: I turn it into a family occasion. My eldest daughter is five, and she loves cleaning the car with me. We share it. Jeremy Clarkson: Do you live in a yogurt commercial? ( more quotes ) |

*squee* I'm watching the first episode of the ninth season of Top Gear, the one in which Richard Hammond comes back after his major accident. It's awesome to see him again, and you can tell Jeremy and James are glad he's back and okay. ( 'are you mental?' - cut for length ) They showed us his tries, toward the end, in which he was basically on 'a chair strapped to a plane engine' - his words, not mine *shakes head in disbelief* boys and engines... Richard Hammond: [Richard's prophetic words to camera before his accident] So my challenge today is to drive this thing, except, that's not the full story because my challenge today is to drive this thing and hit this innocent-looking little button. Because when I do that, it send a flame, shooting through the engine which ignites the afterburner. And when that happens I haven't got 5,000 horse power, I've got, 10,000 horse power, and possibly the biggest accident, you've ever seen in your life. It was moving at the end of it when he (obviously) got scared (I mean... a plane engine, dude!) and he screams 'I'm alive! I'm alive!'. And you can tell he had a blast. And then, his third try, it's the accident. The way he comments on it, his voice gets really quiet and there is a big silence in the studio... then of course Jeremy start making fun of Richard, of course lol Jeremy Clarkson: [referring to Richard's jet-car crash] I could've held it. Richard Hammond: What, in the world's longest power slide? Whilst telling us the price and there was no room in the boot? The final promise: they will never mention the crash in the show again. ETA: from another Top Gear episode:
