Is it my imagination or to be a record co exec u must be completely stupid? And in a tangential rant - TV execs must also be really dumb, cos moving shows around is really going to attract ratings ie Enterprise goes from 10:30 Wed to god only knows when on a Tuesday aaarrrgghhhh stuff the freaking footy i want to watch my show!!! me going bak in hiding.

I think the funny part is that the glued the headphone lead into the headphone socket (as one would imagine otherwise what's the point of just gluing the player shut). Also I think it was Neil Gaiman, he wrote about someone (forget who) who had attempted to get the disc out and had seriously cut his hand up badly. I think that guy's even stupider than the record co execs ;) JJ ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 18 Sep 2002 12:40:48 +1000 From: "Lavenda" Subject: Re: [oztori] Tori shtuff (amazingly on topic) > I think the funny part is that the glued the headphone lead into the > headphone socket (as one would imagine otherwise what's the point of > just gluing the player shut). Indeed, for other things can be plugged into the headphone socket. > Also I think it was Neil Gaiman, he wrote about someone (forget who) > who had attempted to get the disc out and had seriously cut his hand up > badly. I think that guy's even stupider than the record co execs ;) That would be Matt Chamberlain (sp?). I suspect that the leaked copies had nothing to do with Epic, and it was stated that Mark and his 'partner' (whoever the frell they meant by that) had done the gluing for the SW ones... so I wonder if Epic have then got the idea and used it on the Pearl Jam ones? excuse me but can I have a cough for a while?

Some of the reports that I've heard about them say that the journalists are being required to give them back to Epic within a week. One journalist said that, if he didn't give it back, he wouldn't've been allowed to interview Tori. /nm ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 18 Sep 2002 15:40:44 +1000 From: "Bindy ."
