Neil Gaiman Goodness

If I ever have the funds to have my own house built, I'd just about die to have something like this installed -- videos #4 and #10 especially. Discovery of this site courtesy of Neil Gaiman's blog.

Speaking of Mr. Gaiman, I've just finished reading the copy of Neverwhere that Jaimie pushed into my hands last week, saying 'Meg, you and I have to make a movie of this!' p.s. Jaim, it was a TV series in the UK way back in 1997. But we can still try! It was amazing, and I could just see it unfolding as a film as I read it. Kind of like Christopher Logue's War Music, but then Wolfgang Petersen made Troy, and that particular dream (and screenplay-in-progress) of mine was butchered before my eyes... Anyway, among other things, the last scene is a perfect way to end a film, and Croup & Vandemar are so delightfully morbid. Brilliant stuff.
