Paul,

Terrific! I know my projector threading skills would improve greatly after a few drinks.

America's Beverage of Moderation is castor oil!

Nobody abuses that!

I just discovered Root Beer Beer. I thought it would be great to have a bottle of this tasty refreshment while watching a film. Threading the film seems to go ok...but about 10 minutes into the feature I start falling asleep [Roll Eyes]

I guess I'm just a light-weight when it comes to alcohol. By the time I have to re-wind...well lets just say it's challenging [Wink]

Brian,

I have a feeling everything would have that soft focus look....

Janice,

Don't bother rewinding. Just run it in reverse!
