Ferris Bueller - You're My Hero!

I've been hyperventilating all day. Ever since I found out that there's a Special Edition Ferris Bueller's Day Off DVD out, actually.

And here's the historical background: Soon after the Wall came down, we got an old VCR. Anyone remember Betamax, the video format which lost the battle with VHS? This VCR still used Beta tapes. It came with a couple of movies - one of which was Ferris Bueller's Day Off. I loved it! I was 11 years old and I just loved this movie. It should probably have been the first clue for my Mom that her child would turn into a serious movie-holic and unbearable movie-watching companion. She never watched the movie that played part in her daughter's tumble towards Media Studies. She had no idea!

Now, I won't be able to function properly until I get my hands on a Ferris Bueller's Day Off Special Edition DVD.... Wonder whether they sell them here.

Oh, and Clare, there's not a chance in hell I will ever post pics of my cat. He has a No Picture Clause in his contract! Damn Diva!
