Sometimes I really hate the Bodleian's e-journals platform. When for instance, they tell you that there's full text access to a journal, you then painstakingly hunt down the issue and article you want, click to download, and then the journal's publishers tell you you can't access it because you're not a subscriber.

*weeps*

Oh well, off to do it the old fahioned way. But I do wish they'd subscribe to more arts journals, online, when we seem to have unproblematic e-access to any number of trade publications, some of them on mindbogglingly obscure topics. I don't know what 'swot analysis' is, but every other journal on TD.net (the e-journal interface) seems to be one of these, for an astonishing range of companies.

Why, oh why can't I find any clips from House of Cards on You Tube, leaving me unable to demonstrate to an American friend why the moment in the Hogfather film where Death says 'You might think that, but I couldn't possibly comment' is, while admittedly gratuitous and borderline OOC, screamingly funny?
