Firefly
This afternoon, I made a special effort to get home in time to tape (via VHS) the back-to-back episodes of the Firefly pilot shown on the Sci-Fi channel.
I didn't use the timer since the Sci-Fi channel has previously shown itself to be unreliable as to episode start times.
This time was no different; except that my VCR refused to continue recording (at the 2 hour speed) unless I used the "length" option. Which meant that BOTH the beginning of the first part and the end of the second part was cut off. ARGH!
Some days you just can't win.
