Sounds like it. I very much hope so. Are they (I hope against hope) widescreen?

But what line from "The Road Goes Ever On" will we be using?

Hmmm...I don't think so.

Let me go check.

Nope. Regular screen.

They came as a boxed set. I still have the box with the shrink wrap on it. Got 'em off ebay a few years ago.

They say 1995 on the actual tape.

Didn't they have a big push right before the new version came out? They started selling them saying "Last time available in orginal format?" or something like that? I seem to remember that.

I think that's what this is.

Well, all right. The good news is you have them as originally released. Which is mostly better than the "improvements", which upon reflection were released in 1997 and '98 in advance of the Big Deal Episode I.

I don't specifically remember that. You are more than likely right.

We'll have worked our way through all the poems of Tom Bombadil and be halfway through the Ent-wife song by then.

Evenin' evellybody. [sip]

I'm tired of having a job. I think I will retire. I've got it all figgered out... I could retire today and have about five dollars a week for the rest of my life, provided that I catch something pretty serious in about ten or fifteen years. :-) Maybe I can learn to live on that. I mean... with enough Top Ramen, anything is possible.

I think you need to marry a rich woman.

Hey, it worked for Kerry, right?

First one of us to get a million bucks better buy that commune. I wouldn't mind getting away from the rat race either.

I think that's a workable plan. [looks around] Drat.

Right. So this plan takes some work.

First, find a rich woman...

Maybe you'd better start hanging around different bars.

So it would seem. :-)

Maybe the bar at the yacht club would be more suitable. [note to self: get a boat]

Well, someone's got to do it!

Good evening!

The rich woman will probably already have a boat if she belongs to a yacht club.

You could have Hair crash a plane for you... just walk into the yacht club and ask for a drink and the loan of a fancy boat to get home.
