I remember hooking two VCRs together to copy Due South for others several times

I've been clearing out a lot of electronics over this past year, among them the two-VCR hookup that was still set up in my bedroom (I have no idea why). So I pulled them apart, and honest to god, I didn't recognize the cables. They weren't coax, and they weren't composite; they were some sort of VCR-specific cables from the depths of the early 90s.

I was weirdly charmed. *g* (And nostalgic enough that I promptly stashed the VCRs in a basement and the cables in a drawer; You Never Know when modern technology will utterly fail us, and we'll be dependent on stone knives and bearskins to see us through!)

I started an eGroup for a not particularly well-known actor, and when he joined the group himself I had a total fangirl attack!

Oh man, I bet! I was always a little startled at how readily the subjects of certain lists would join; I mean, I get the egoboo of seeing what people are saying, but... wow. It's not necessarily all going to be good, dude. Use a sockpuppet, and keep your mouth shut. *g*
