Isn't that one of the reasons we have ebook readers? When someone asks what you're reading you can quickly switch to some Jane Austen before showing off your technological toy.

Bury them, if you will. Oh, and burn all those pesky books, too.

But seriously, I think a global language wouldn't be too bad. Should improve progress at the expense of cultural diversity.

Dude, you need to spend less time in front of the computer or reading ebooks. The pirate thing can be kind of cool. Some girls like weirdos.

I'll take that as a compliment

The 'weirdo' part, that is. As for the computer, I am only on the PC here at work. After work, however, is different.

After work, I go home, and get on the PC and watch wonderful shows like Q.I., Arrested Development, and my favourite BBC sitcom ever.. Black Books.

You watch, and like, QI & Black Books, and do not have a girlfriend??? There is no justice in this world!

Fortunately, the yeti loves both of those as much as I do

Lemme go look up Terry & June. I'll get back with ye.

But yeah, Black Book is my fave. Manny is too hilarious. I also like Father Ted, and I've seen some My Hero, and Yes Minister as well.

Being in the U.S., and in Arkansas, on top of that, I am a bit deprived on true culture. If it wasn't for torrenting the vids, I'd never have known anything.

For example, I only knew about Father Ted when I heard the BBC host talk about it after an episode of Black Books. Boom, I went and searched for a torrent to see, and yes, quite funny.

And Q.I. mentioned about Jonathan Creek, so I naturally had to check that as well. I currently own every episode. I love to hate Maddy. I wish Caroline would come back.

Sorry for the off-topic post. What were we talking about again?

How Black Books and Father Ted are Channel 4 sitcoms not BBC ones.

Ahh. gotcha. I suppose, as a Yank, any British sitcom is BBC Comedy.

To be honest, I didn't know what 'channel' they were on. I assumed all channels in England were BBC stations. Channel 4 = BBC4.

Our mediais very different. You never hear CBS tell you to switch over to NBC for anything.
