Meet the new metaphor for what George Lucas has done to your childhood

A New Dope

I do, of course, enjoy the sight of the fans combusting in rage. But then observing Nerd Rage is a fun way to spend my Saturdays. Particularly the various boycotts I saw of the SW Blu-Rays, which had the stated aim of making him release the originals, because nobody wanted the remastered versions, which ended with Star Wars breaking all records for a Blu-Ray release.

Strange Livejournal thing

If I try to create an entry with the following html in it, then I get an error:

<a href="http://www.deadlin e.com">Test</a>

"Client error: Sorry, there was a problem with content of the entry"

Changing the URL works makes it work just fine.

I wonder what's going on.

Edit - I just had to put a space between the n and the e, because otherwise LJ wouldn't let me post it!
