Martombed is dead. Off with his head!!! (and put it on a pike, and watch him drip dry outside of my office, like I do all opposing counsel . . . )! Oops . . . got carried away. Trial is over.
But he's still DEAD! (I still think Marty deserves another snake; he's such a cute little guy!).

hey guys, finally getting back into a caonverastion i butted into weeks ago then left...no marty my vcr doesn't do pal, but it sounds like mary simmons might be able to help you.
here in the land of oz(kansas) we do occasionally get snow, but ususally not much. it's just cold and windy.
we do get some of texane's tornadoes and hail...the meteorologist at the local tv station is called cyclone jones if that gives you a clue.
i know how jsc feels a bit about the helicopters. i live 3 & 6 blocks from hospitals, and life star flies in at any and every hour of the night.
even in topeka, we get to hear 'the natives getting restless' ie, the gang bangers decide to shoot at each other and we'll debate if it was a normal or automatic weapon and agrue about the caliber of the shot.
weird how i've gotten used to it.

You've gotten USED to it, skydiver! You are a braver soul than I am! Scares the HECK out of me! Drive bys and walk bys are scary especially when you see the bodies and blood and bullets and police and know the some of the victims. I ain't happy in a war zone.
when we moved in 25 years ago, our neighborhood was different. my sis's and i were really the only kids. we used to sit on the porch on summer nights and watch the start, which you can see, though not as good as if you'd go out in the country.
in the last 10 years or so the neighborhood has gone downhill a bit. people die, their houses get turned into rentals...we had a guy murdered in our alley about 5 years ago...heard the shot. my mom was nearly mugged going to the store several years back.
it's not great but...well the city council doesn't live around here(they live on the west side of town which was prairie when we moved into our house) and ...it's central topeka, no one really cares. '
i'm not saying it's a slum or anything, just that most of the folk living here are just renting and...neighborhood associations can only do so much.
i've gotten used to the police chopper or medeval flying over head, just like the ambulances going down the street a block away doesn't wake me up anymore...it's just part of the landscape.
i spent so many years sleeping with a streetlight shining in my window, when i spent the night at my grandparent's house i had a hard time sleeping cuase it was too dark. and too quiet.

Martouf---Skydiver is right I can make PAL dubs if you need them. I have some episodes from every season. Drop me a line and I'll see what I can do for ya.
Skydiver---Do you still have every episode from seasons 1 and 2? I am missing a few and would like to propose a trade. I'm not sure if you are in an area that gets seasons 3 and 4, but I can trade you some if you're not. Let me know.

mary, i have em all!
my season 1&2 are sp dubs i bought from someone so they're in pretty good shape, just down a generation from the original. my season 3 & 4 are direct from showtime and are lp or sp dubs.
just let me know which ones you need, i can make sp, lp or slp dubs

the quality does tend to degrade a bit when they're slp...it has to do with, well, in sp mode the tape moves across the recorning head faster and is more spread out or somehting so it holds up better than when it's scrunched up for an slp dub.
really though, go down enough generations and they all start to look nasty. if you really want good dubs you need to record them on 1" or beta tape...unfortunately that's tech only available at tv stations or production houses and costs 1000's of dollars...man i dolong for the good old days when i knew a guy who worked master control at a tv station and he recorded b5 and trek on 1" or 3/4 tape...broadcast quality.
anyway, sp tapes will hold up better especially if you're going to be watching them a lot or making dubs. slp is just fine for personal use(and takes up a LOT less room. imagine fitting 1 season on 3 tapes(we mostly have 6hr tapes here) rather than 2 or 3 episodes per tape.

we're talking big glittery ruby red mary janes!
marty: normally we use t-120 tape which is 6 hours at slp and i can fit 8 eps i think...but there are t-160 which are 8 hours at slp and could probably fit 12 eps. there are one or two kinds that are longer but when you pack that much tape into the little plastic box it can be more fragile. sorta like hanging a bowling ball and a tennis ball by the same size of rope. the bowling ball is a little more undteady and the rope more likely to break.
course if you're going to be watching the eps to pieces, an 8 hr tape might wear out faster...then again it might not.
it's just one of those things.

somebody else who is as bad as me. i recently got sp dubs of season 1 & 2 but i'm still hanging onto my syndicated dubs of 1&2 just in case something happens i have a back up copy...
so if a rogue magnet attacks my tape cabinet i'll have something..and of course i'm contemplating buying the season 1 eps when they become available here in the states in feb...man i need to get a life
