    Hey, am I a fascist if I don’t like quantization artifacts?

  4. giagia says:

    ‘quantization artifacts’? Isn’t that what we fought against the Germans over in WWII?

    Or have I got it wrong again?

  5. Nicholas says:

    No, those are what we kept Indiana Jones chasing after for us. Most are stored in a super huge warehouse somewhere!

  • Observer Article -

    Honestly, this isn't a blog just about Brian. That would be really weird... but... indulge me just a bit longer.

    Some of you may have seen the article about Brian in the Observer today. Now, you guys are intelligent and realise that not everything you read in a newspaper is accurate. This was made absolutely clear to me this morning as I was sitting in my bathrobe, hair all over the place, barefoot, all coffee breath, unshowered and read, "he married his American wife, glamorous TV presenter Gia Milinovich, in secret." :-/

    Ah well...
