I almost forgot to mention I ordered the original Spanish DVD of Alatriste yesterday. I just couldn't wait any longer. It was about 50 bucks on Amazon; but, luckily for me, I had just received a $50 gift certificate for completing a health risk assessment survey on my company's website.:D What's more, the product description states it's supposed to have English subtitles!!! *flails* And yes, it's region 2 - but a good friend of mine has a DVD player set up for European stuff... so I guess I'm just gonna show up on her doorstep with huge puppy dog eyes - and even bigger bag of popcorn - one of these days.:P The DVD is supposed to ship sometime this week, so it might be already waiting for me when I get back from San Francisco. Life is good, my friends.:D
