| Posted: | | | | I'm setting up this thread in the hope of rebuilding the contribution community for Vatican City DvD collectors. This thread is intended to be the primary source of communication between contributors. Firstly i don't think it is necessary to have a leadership structure in place for all areas of contribution, as I'm am anarchist and I prefer to steal the work of others and still be able to claim the moral high ground. Perhaps I'm being a bit lofty purposing this, as I also don't speak Italian or Latin.
I'm small fish and some what ignorant in a lot of way's of contribution. But i feel as collectors we all have a vested interest in ensuring we have abundant and accurate database at our disposal. | | | Do you ever find yourself striving for perfection with an almost worthless attempt at it? Guttermouth "Lemon Water". Also, I include in my Profiler database VHS tapes, audio DVDs, audio books (digital, cassette and CD), video games (digital, DVD and CD) and 'enhanced' CDs with video tracks on them, as well as films and TV I've bought digitally. So I'm an anarchist, deal with it. Just be thankful I don't include most of my records and CDs etc in it too; don't think I haven't been tempted... |

| Posted: | | | | Probably, but I fear that Ratzinger wasn't that much for Schlager either. Being Bavarian he most likely preferred Volksmusik, which is even worse. | | | It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up! But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

| Posted: | | | | Yeah, and since we already have a Martian among our fellow users, an alien collectors contributor thread can't be far off either... |

| Posted: | | | | I'm somewhat disappointed that some people don't seem to be taking my amazingly generous offer very seriously. I imagine the Vatican has a quite extensive collection of discs that could greatly enhance the online database.

Is it that you have anti german resentments? I'll have you know I had a German partner for many years; then she came to her senses... She introduced me to my first ever German language comedy DVD, a thing I didn't believe existed. | | | Do you ever find yourself striving for perfection with an almost worthless attempt at it?
