Can I eat it?


They love looking outside. Not a great pic, but oh well.
More stuff? Yes more stuff!
Laurel and Hardy
A 3DVD box that contains The Flying Deuces (brilliant), Utopia, and a few shorts.
Price: 6 euros.
Tommy: The Movie (30th Anniversary 2-Disc Edition)
One of my favorite movies of all-time, and it’s a musical too! Oh happy happy joy joy!
Price: 14 euros.
Platoon (Special Edition)
It’s funny, because I casually mentioned this movie in IRC recently as we wwere talking about war movies that don’t suck. I have a lot of trouble watching this genre, as they either overglorify stuff, or make it too realistic for me to endure.
Price: 8 euros.
Shindler’s List
This is basicly just one of those ‘got to have’ movies, even if you never intent to watch it.
Price: 10 euros.
Frank Zappa - Sheik Yerbouti (Audio CD)
One of his many, many CDs I want to obtain. I especially enjoy his ‘Shut Up and Play Your Guitar’ stuff. Price:
12 euros.
I think I spent more than enough for this month.

Oooh I’m so glad I got this!As you can see in the pic (hopefully), this comes with three smalls busts from Frankenstein, Dracula and The Wolf Man. This box contains the following movies:
Dracula (1931), Dracula (1931) original Spanish version, Dracula’s Daughter (1936), Son of Dracula (1943) House of Dracula (1945)
Frankenstein (1931), Bride of Frankenstein (1935), Son of Frankenstein (1939), Ghost of Frankenstein (1942), House of Frankenstein (1945)
The Wolf Man (1941), Frankenstein Meets The Wolf Man (1943), She Wolf of London (1946), Werewolf of London (1935)
Creature from The Black Lagoon (1954), The Invisible Man (1933), The Phantom Of The Opera (1943) & The Mummy (1932).
Whew, big list… Add in the bonus material and that’s a LOT of entertainment for a very low price of 50 euros!

When my mom was at the Media Markt, she called me about a MD player she found for 20 euros and if I was interested in it. After a quick search on the internet I found out it was actually a pretty good player so I said “Hell yeah!” and I just now tested it out.In LP2 mode I’m able to put 160 minutes of music on a single MiniDisk (MD), converting two 1 minute tracks to LP4 I was able to put 3 entire albums on my very first recording.
Ripping goes fast and easy, and the sound quality is excellent. This will be a good replacement for my age old 64MB MP3/WMA player (which incidently, is also an AIWA bargain from Media Markt).
