The L Word: the complete fifth season starring Cybill Shepherd, Jennifer Beals, marlee Matlin, Pam Grier, others. "Unresolved romances and long-simmering fulm project finally bear fruit in this season's 12 episodes."
The L Word: the complete final season starring [the same people as before including some lady with a really big mouth]. "All 8 dramatic, provocative and mysterious final season episodes as careers evolve, relationships are tested and friendships end in murder!"

It's only -5 Degrees With the Wind So Don't Whine or You'll Make the Canadians Look Good
DVD
District 9 starring [African Guys]. Aliens from space land on Earth and are segregated into crappy neighborhoods in Johannesburg. Trouble happens
(500) Days of Summer with Joseph Gordon-Levitt-Too-Long-Name and Zooey Deschanel. Romantic comedy for chicks.
Little Rascals/Our Gang Discs One and Two. Another repackaging of the shorts. Includes Bear Shooters, Waldo's Last Stand, The Pooch, Derby Day and others.
We used to watch these on television or at birthday parties when my parents would borrow the 8mm films from the library. George McFarland, who played Spanky, spoke at Gustavus when I was a student. I had a conflicting work assignment in the cafeteria that night and was unable to hear his whole presentation. Spanky had some neat stories. He spoke about Buckwheat's career as a film technician and how simple speech therapy would have helped him out as a kid. Alfalfa's post-Our Gang troubles were covered along with the story of his killing in 1959.

Musical Interlude
Musical Interlude
I had this song bopping around in my head. The Housemartins were neat in that they would mix their peppy music and harmonies with wicked and pointed social commentary.
