I think that's something entirely different...I'm not sure, I've never heard that before...

Actually, Niflhiem is only one half of the Norse underworld. I forget what the other half is called though. Niflhiem is frozen, the other half is molten, and its all ruled over by Hel, daughter of Loki, if I remember correctly.

public television, in 1990 broadcast the four operas that make up Wagner's The Ring of the Niebelung, on successive nights (M-th) so it was like a mini-series (interesting, viewable.) Loki was in the first opera: Das Rhiengold, but I really didn't know who he was otherwise. I've always wanted to study mythology and am keenly interested.

Dammit! I knew I was forgetting something! It's been far too long since I've pursued any of my own personal academic interests. I wasn't able to do anything I usually would for the entire school year because this time I was focusing on my actual assignments, and now I just can't be arsed...
ALSO: I just got series one and two of Red Dwarf on DVD in the mail today! Yay! I'm already through series one, commentary, the smeg-ups, the deleted scenes, "Launching Red Dwarf" documentary, and the trailer. On to series two (then I can go back and finish everything else)! I love new obsessions!
If only I could find transcripts for series eight...

I'm waiting on getting RD seasons 3 and 4 myself. I've just started re-watching the first season whilst I eat lunch. And guest, when you read Dante's Inferno, make sure you get a copy with some sort of notes, as if you aren't fluent with medievil english, it's a real bastard to understand. Even with the notes, its not that easy. That's why I haven't gotten around to reading the second two yet.

According to a new decree about spending my own money, I can't get series three and four until Christmas (unless I go behind my mother's back to buy them, but that would cost about twenty to thirty dollars more than ordering it). So all I have until then are the first two series, and the transcripts.
I have come to the conclusion that college budgets suck. :angry: If only I had looked into this while I was still in high school...if only I had an actual job...
