The $50,000 bed is based on a theory contrary to everything I've heard about good mattresses-- people need to move when they sleep so they don't stiffen up.

Yeah, I found it baffling!

I hate the Wilhelm Scream with a passion. every time i hear it it ruins the immersion in what i'm watching and i get pissed off at the makers for using it. it's like it's screaming "look, i'm a film! just picture people sitting in front of an editing program inserting this sound and thinking how cool they are!"

Having now heard it 25 times in succession I suspect I'm going to feel the same way (like spotting a 1138 in the background on a George Lucas movie)

I'm seeing the Roger Waters show in December, (twice.) And I am so looking forward to this show!

Thanks for posting the link. It's nice to see some pics from the show.
