You got manatee!

[sam_tom_sam]

I was subtitling an American reality show called Switched today, when I was pleasantly surprised to see what appears to be a manatee-shaped mailbox outside one of the participant's houses.




Also, one of my colleagues sent me an e-mail just to tell me that it had dawned on him the other day that I look like Andy Warhol. 'What a cool person to look like,' he wrote. I think it is quite cool, especially since Andy Warhol was good mates with Nick Rhodes and had a thin face (I'm often concerned about having a fat face). He attached this picture:

Andy Warhol looks a scream...

I simply chose full screen view in Windows Media Player, then hit the Print Screen button on the keyboard. Then I went into Word and chose Paste. It's a good way of copying anything on your screen. Then I cut out the bit of the picture I wanted and pasted it into Paint, and saved it as a JPEG.

Aah I see! By the way, have you tried the Video Google search engine? The other day we found several vids of Gary Numan with it, including a fab performance of "Are Friends Electric?" on the Old Grey Whistle Test.

No I had not heard of Video Google, thanks for that! I'll have a look. How wonderful.

http://youtube.com also has some Gary Numan on it as well (including other artists).

I understood about screen prints as I have done many and often, but I don't get the last sentence - @Cut out the .....JPEG@. Perhaps you'll show me soon.

Yes, by cut I mean crop the image. You can do that in Word, you know, if you paste an image into a Word document. I can show you if you like.
