Go on Grazie; show us something. I’m sitting here waiting for my FX1 to arrive, and Vegas 6, and the Cineform product; wish they’d hurry up, so yes indeed Grazie, show us what you been up to.

"We had our own "QUALITY" Christmas Party... with several Stellas..."

...and you didn't arrange with Liam for live streaming on the Internet for all SCVUG members? Tsk, tsk, tsk...

I'm just gonna have to comfort myself with a Stone Brewery India Pale Ale, current word champion in this category I believe, and I'm happy to second that. India Pale Ales were made *extremely* hoppy to survive the long boat trip to India, but then the result also tasted exceptionally nice (not just if you have chest hair). Where did I get it? From a health food store of course!

Whole Foods sells it...

Liam took some footage of your very own Grazie - fooling about and generally being silly at the NFT. Oh yes! At the same time and next to the NFT - at the National Theatre - was the Evening Standard Theatre Awards . . . lotsa celebs being "clicked" by the paparazzi . . . we set up several "spoofs" .. Liam says, "Hey Grazie, thanks for laying on this event!" . .. .

Hey, that was a great early-holiday treat. Nice to see what a couple of the guys look like. Funny how the mind's-eye image can bear little or no resemblence to the actual person.

I had some problems playing it, though. Maybe someone has suggestions where my system went wrong. When I opened the webpage with the viewer embedded on the page, I could hear the audio but I got a black screen in the viewer. Eventually I opened media player by itself and opened the URL to the wmv file inside the player. Then it worked.

Anyone else seen problems like this? What's wrong with my set-up?

Yes. Yes it wasn't, that is.

I met John Meyer at the intro to Spot's Vegas training last May. He was not too far from my mental image. You, I pictured as a smaller person with a higher voice. Liam, in my mind was tall and thin. Of course there is no real reason why I created those images. Nice, now, to have a real image to base things on.

Guess you have no suggestions where my wmv playback went wrong?

Sorry mate, can't help you on the WMV thing . . .

You viewing it in Mozilla or Firefox??? I have the same issue and the easiest thing to do is to minimize and then open again.. should solve the problem. Has to do with the WM plugin for non-IE browsers.

Just like the old Bond movie where 007 lands at Heathrow and you can see Big Ben just behind Terminal 4...

:O)
