First off the bat, the Anchorman DVD commentary is a work of art. I'm just going to copy in here the highlights given at commentarydvd.com.

0:41..Ferrell and McKay wonder what they're allowed to say on the commentary and begin a truly magnificient string of vulgar obscenities, much of which is bleeped out. It lasts for over 15 minutes straight with virtually no discussion of the movie.
15:23..Adam McKay talks about his sexual experimentation with men, including with an NBA power forward whose name gets bleeped out.
17:36..Andy Richter and Kyle Gass come in and complain about not getting a part in the film.
23:37..Kyle Gass: "Is that the chick from Married With Children? She's hot. Did you get in on some of that?" This sparks an entertaining fake fistfight.
28:42..McKay: "Less than eight drinks, don't drive your car. More than eight, drive so far."
31:37.."Hello, I'm Lou Rawls and I'm still trying to figure out what I'm doing here."
46:31..McKay: "I'd say without exaggeration there were six applause breaks in this movie just because of how beautiful something was shot."
1:15:07..Adam McKay says he enjoys doing crystal meth and listening the 'Men at Work' DVD commentary.
There's so much more to this though, Paul Rudd calling in to insult Kyle and Andy, the scat-off between Will and Lou, Will being worried Lou would notice that there weren't any black people in the movie, and Adam saying he always thought that Paul Rudd was black, David Koechner selling shoes on the street.. it's just incredible. They must mention the movie about three times.

So i had a pretty rough evening the other night, and yesterday was a little better, but I think being stuck alone in the house leaves me a little fed up with myself. Hopefully tonight I'll get to go out to the cinema with the guys, Marcus and Gav aren't working tonight. I'll see what happens.

I made plans for March. Things will be awesome. Apparently Swifty and Buffy were talking about how awesome it would be for Doug and I to be roommates in Amherst. The answer: infinite amounts. I still have another year of university, which I dread more and more with every passing day, but after that I'll be home free. If I want to move to the states though, I'll probably have to start applying for a visa now. We'll see. I managed to score way more days off than I think I'm actually contractually able to have, so that's a plus. On top of that, I watched two episodes of Lost at work yesterday, and uploaded a bunch more photos to my flickr account. go look! go comment! give some indication you read this!
