I was surprised enough when I heard that President Obama gave Prime Minister Brown 25 DVD’s (Brown gave Obama a pen holder carved from the timber of an anti-slavery ship). Now word is spreading on the news wires that when Brown sat down to watch one of the DVDs, it would not work.
The DVDs that Obama gave are Region 1. Region 1 DVDs will only play on players in the United States and Canada. Brown needed Region 2 DVDs in order to play them in the United Kingdom. So, not only was the gift questionable, it was downright unusable. Perhaps Brown should re-gift them to Hillary Clinton.

It just keeps getting worser and worser.
I wonder which movie he tried to watch first… Dr. Strangelove perhaps?
I suspected the DVDs would be region 2 compatible!
