Beg pardon please

Good after­noon. Please allow me to mix a couple of meta­phors. Because I pretty much screwed the pooch and made a hash of what was sup­posed to have been a some­what work-oriented week­end, I’m now in the pos­i­tion of play­ing catch­up with a couple of dead­lines. Something’s got to go on the back burn­er for a bit, and this blog is it. The Tuesday Morning Foreign Region DVD Report is likely where you’ll next hear from me. In the mean­time, instead of put­ting on the hair­shirt, I offer an image of a… dif­fer­ent mani­fest­a­tion of self-mortification in apology.
