Anyone remember this clunker?

Do not adjust your eyes - it is George Clooney, in a pre-ER TV role as Det. Ryan Walker in a show called Bodies of Evidence, back in the early 1990s.

His greasy, slicked-back hair was a real turn-off. I watched several episodes trying to figure out how he was supposed to be attractive to the women in the show.

Then came ER, and the rest is history.

I think we can safely say that, though he has appeared in a few less-than-good films, on TV Vincent has never made an unfortunate choice of role.

Finger Lickin' Good

What wouldn't I give to have Bobby astride me like this.








I wonder what he thinks?

"If I display my hands like this...



...the Vixens will go crazy.



As for my thumb, well, I just know what they'll be thinking now.



Why do I always have to look down at everyone?



OK, all right, I know, it's because I stand head and shoulders above them.



Except when I'm sitting down.



Why do I point with my middle finger like that? The whole finger? The hole finger?



Sorry, I feel ashamed about that last comment.



Have I met the sexy-pencil-holding challenge?



I'm telling you, Val's are so big, I can't even fit one in this grip.



Guess what this finger's good at?



If I display this part of my neck, someone will go wild to kiss it.



Is this a good angle to show off my wrist?



If I cover my mouth with my hand it drives the Vixens over the edge.



Can I rub some of this into Val's boobs?



She's just over there gagging for it.



She's only this big, but man, does she GO!



Bet you're disappointed I didn't unbutton my jacket!



If I'm going to rub these all over Val, I have to keep them soft.



I think she's going to need these tissues, and not for her nose...



I'm sorry, but I genuinely love the woman.



And I do have to practise trying to get one in each hand.



Look at them - do you think YOU could do any better?



You do?



Oh, no! Better defer to her opinion.



See? She chose me! I'll just fill this doorway and prop it up till everyone goes and we're alone."

Bobby Shrink Wrapped

Oh, what wouldn't I give to see that. Or better, to DO that!

Anyway, it was on last night.

By the way, my computer is still alive, though still DVD-driverless. I'm going to try and find one online, or else phone HP and ask them to send me a link and all necessary instructions. The software goes back as soon as possible, and please, everyone, notify all your contacts about this piece of crap.

Anyway, Python Alert! How can Alex keep looking at the other guy's face when she COULD have an eyeful of...



As for the profile and the lashes - yum!

Then there are the other bits...

...the size 13s...

(Now, you see, if I stuck my chest out at him like this, I'd put the poor man's eye out.)

...the thumbs...

...with the hands attached...

...and the wrists...












...the shoulders and back...

...oh, the hands again...

...hand-to-mouth...

...and of course the old favourite, the crossed arms.

I left out the tongue 'cos the pictures are a bit blurry, and anyway, I think there's enough here to give us all an attack of the vapours.

DO NOT BUY THIS PROGRAMME!

If you see DVDXpressDX2, by ADS Tech on sale, promising to enable you to convert your videos into DVDs on your computer, RUN LIKE HELL OUT OF THE SHOP.

It doesn't tell you system requirements on the box. When you get it home, if you hunt high and low in the accompanying booklets, you will find that it does not mention Windows Vista. When you try to install it on your computer it informs you that the driver will not download. So you go to the website, and they have links (two different sets) to downloads of a Vista driver. First you have to uninstall everything you just spent hours installing.

The download does not to seem to actually appear anywhere on the system after downloading. Nor does it tell you anywhere whether you now install again from the disc. But I tried to anyway, only to discover that I HAVE NO DVD DRIVER ON MY COMPUTER ANY MORE!

Twenty-one hours ago I tried to restore my system from a backup within the computer (can't do it from the backup discs because I DON'T HAVE A DVD DRIVER). Kevin at Sales Support recommends contacting Technical Support. I wonder if he's ever tried to find a way to contact a human being on there? FAQs just led me back to the downloads that wreked it all in the first place.

System Restore is still apparently running, though the screen has been blank since about 10 minutes in. But don't interrupt the restoration, it said.

How long, I wonder, before I weaken and pull the battery to switch the blighter off? And what will I find when I try to switch it back on again?

Sorry, Diane, I didn't mean to trump your techno-woes story, but at least I know you understand my pain and frustration.

Thank goodness for my old machine.

Tether me these...

Hands seem to be a bit of a theme today on the UK VDO blogs. The others hvae opted for that very pointy index finger, but I've gone for the whole appendage.



And just for good measure, some face shots from the same powerful episode.

Thinking About Tomorrow

In the complete absence of any chance anytime soon of finding a way to use my video-to-dvd transfer programme (thanks for the amazingly intricate [ha ha] support from Kevin at ADS Technology) I am forced to fall back on these rather scrumptious slideshows from Season 2.

Bobby in Endgame

Because he reflects my mood.
