Amelie :: You've got mail

I watched Amelie yesterday with Stella; she had borrowed the DVD from the library.

It was… quaint. Often, we didn't know what was going on, or what the scene on the screen had to do with the plot. But it was still sort of interesting. It's different.

I also seem to have managed to install Pegasus Mail on the new PC and transfer my old mail files over. That's especially good because that's where I've stored a bunch of registration numbers and licence keys for various shareware programs I've registered.

Whee! The paid account fairy has visited me again :)

I'm five foot twenty-five centimetres tall

I'm curious as to what sort of units you use to measure various things, especially since I've heard that some people will use a mixture of metric and non-metric units depending on the object (one example given was measuring distances in miles but speeds in kilometres per hour, or measuring short distances in inches and feet but longer ones in metres and kilometres).

If you answer "other", or want to add anything, please comment on this entry.

Edit to add: I'm also interested in how you'd measure the diagonal of (a) a television set and (b) a computer monitor. (For example, in Germany (a) is usually in cm while (b) is usually in inches.)
