How do You Watch your Stories? Now With Recommendations!
Brian, this interview with Hal Harley might interest you esp. regarding your DVD collection (which I understand and appreciate). One of his films is basically unavailable now as it was made with a studio which has no interest in making it available, etc...- puff_not_snuff

Even so... I wonder how ambient light effects the HD as we have windows in every room so there is always some amount of ambient light. I will say that the speaker is pretty damn good on this thing- we have speakers in the room we could hook it to but never bothered.- puff_not_snuff

How do You Watch your Stories? Now With Recommendations!
I get all of that. Actually, being in a NYC apartment space is actually the reason we got the projector vs. a flatscreen TV. We have a pull-down screen which is just in front of a bookshelf and keep the projector just to the side of the sofa when we aren't using it. While the definition isn't...- puff_not_snuff

How do You Watch your Stories? Now With Recommendations!
Have you considered getting a digital projector? We have this one, not sure how HD it is to be honest, but it's rather nice to watch films on. Oddly, I still like to watch my stories (aka British television shows) on a smaller screen. I don't know why I develop so many strange preferences but...- puff_not_snuff

That looks great. Maybe I'll watch that tonight. I enjoyed The Unbelievable Truth just as much as Henry Fool, maybe even more so, and would go as far as calling it a "masterpiece". Check out this scene with a young Ede Falco. It's hilarious. @jpmcwjr I agree about Being There. Whenever I...- puff_not_snuff

Well, hope the VHS isn't wavey or such. I guess you can just blow on it like we use to do in olden days. I wish I had a garage or basement to put in a clunky TV and VHS player. I feel like I'm talking about getting a hand crank phonograph player or something. I only started to realize in the...- puff_not_snuff

@brian64 I watched Henry Fool yesterday. Thank you for bringing this to my attention, I'll be thinking about this film for a while... It reminded me of Whit Stillman's (Barcelona etc.) and the French director Éric Rohmer's films, but much more imaginative, indescribable and surprising. Have you...- puff_not_snuff

Actually I have not and planned to look it up later this afternoon as it's the sort of peculiar comedy I like. Every watch the British sketch comedy series The Fast Show?- puff_not_snuff

Their a comfort in these sort of ritual and can add meaning to our lives outside of just being entertained. Unless that is you are re-watching things like Superbad and The Hangover III.- puff_not_snuff

I've only come to realize this evening, well at least in a way that feels like being kicked in the nuts, that my life has become so formulaic. I still do and see interesting things, still find stuff exciting, travel, conversations enjoyable and whatever else you want to fill in but nearly most...- puff_not_snuff

Food you Haven't Had Since your Grandmother(s) Died
I certainly wouldn't call pirogis death on a plate. Carb heavy maybe but not necessarily high in cholesterol or saturated fat depending on the filling (my Grandmother's were always potato and a scant amount of cheese)- and perhaps if you pan try them in lard or such and even if you do they don't...- puff_not_snuff
