Okay, so we've got a new government and we like them a lot and they're ratifying Kyoto and apologising to the Stolen Generations and looking less likely to interfere in Stanhope's same-sex unions proposal for the ACT. But I think enough time has passed since the election that the mockery can begin in earnest. A healthy amount of mockery is good for a government!

And so, linked by [livejournal.com profile] tahira_saki: Kevin Rudd's ideal interview. No irritating Kerry O'Brien to ask probing questions! Just Rudd vs. Rudd in a harmonious meeting of the minds.

*giggles*

Happy birthday! If the Indian market in anatomised skeletons hadn't dried up, I would have made you the old-fashioned gift of a complete bone box... you know. Something nice for the front parlour.

That is so thoughtful of you :D Considering the current market I would probably settle for the mythical Sarah Brightman CD that I seem to recall you mentioning...I don't know when. A while ago!

Dude. Was that a year ago? You can never count on me for anything, it seems. Lucky they still sell it...

*waves hands* I thought you'd already bought it and just forgotten to post it in all the excitement of moving house etc. You don't have to go out and buy it! Really.

Nope, I meant to do so and then moved house.

Having owed you a proper present for two years running now, I think it's perfectly fair to say that one present is the CD (or the DVD, si tu preferes) and one is the UPSIDE DOWN SHIPPING TO UPSIDE DOWN LAND WHERE YOU INSIST ON LIVING. :P

That sounds perfectly reasonable! Ji's xmas present cost almost as much to ship as it did to buy. Ridiculous oceans. Why so wide?

(Um...this is hard! I assume the track listing is the same on DVD and CD? Is it a concert or a series of clips? PRODUCT DETAILS S'IL TE PLAIT.)

The DVD seems to have more tracks covering a longer spectrum, but I can't tell from the tweedly product info whether each video is a whole song.

CD info is here:

I think I'd prefer the DVD, but I've just remembered that it won't play on my laptop. SENSIBLE ME. So the CD is probably better! :)

...Do CD's have regions? I have no idea. That's probably something to find out.

I don't think they do. Just DVDs. I've been able to play CDs I bought in the States on my laptop just fine.
