Thanks Johnny and Thudlow that makes sense
I have more than one podcast host reminding me at the end of episodes to “stay tuned” for a future episode. I have no idea how to “tune” my iPod.
You can get an FM Tuner for iPods, actually. 
Wait… this means that film is video too, right? I always just interpreted video as “moving pictures on a digital format”, as opposed to film, which would be moving pictures in a non-digital format. Is there an actual distinction between film and video?
I suspect Mr. Boink was just being a little pedantic there. 
‘Film’ is a transparent medium through which light is passed to project an image onto a screen. ‘Video’ (i.e., videotape or video disc) is a medium from which an analogue or digital signal is read from magnetic tape or a digital storage device such as a DVD. If you shoot something with a film camera (16mm, 35mm, super-8, for example) you’re ‘filming’ it. If you use a video recorder that stores the signal on tape you’re ‘taping’ it. If you’re storing the signal on a writable DVD or other non-tape digital medium you’re ‘recording’ it.
Even though the camcorder doesn’t use vinyl as it’s recording medium?
Yeah yeah, I know, 72’s are simply vinyl audio records, and the term “record” applies to anything you use to store information in, up to and including slabs of clay or scratched rocks. 
Nobody was ever paid in salt, and that is not where the word “salary” comes from. There is a thread about it, or you could check the OED.
You and I would get on just fine; I’ve been known to ask librarians, “Where is a computer I can use to look at the card catalog?”
Heh, when I worked in a library, we had a computer system called “Cardcat” for cataloguing the books. We always refered to it as “Cardcat” (since that’s the name of the icon the patron would have to click on anyways to open it up) when talking about it, so one day when I was talking to a friend, and she mentioned that I could look something up in the “Card Catalogue”, I was at a loss as to what she was talking about for a short while. :smack:
You are my hero.
Oh, that! OK, that makes more sense.
In my limited experience in the world of (independent) filmmaking, those three verbs are often interchangeable in practice.
I think it’s becoming more common now. Indie filmmakers are turning mroe and more to digital video, and they make ‘films’. Even though the images are recorded digitally, the finished product is a ‘film’. (Subtle difference.) Saying ‘I’m making a video’ has a different connotation. When I started making films we used super-8. The first indie feature I worked on was shot on 16mm. Younger filmmakers may never have seen an actual film camera in real life. But since they’re making a ‘film’, they’re ‘filming’ a scene. I have nine 16mm cameras, but only one DV camera; so I still make the distinction.
Edit: Which is to say that’s why ‘filming’ is an anachronism in the spirit of the OP.
To Spend A Penny
In a slightly different sense, although I say I’ve been gypped by somebody, I’ve never actually met a real gypsy.
Pleased to meet you.
Ah hah! How exciting. I wish I had a verb named after me… I guess “Canadian” is too clunky.
“Rickety” is another term that is totally divorced from its literal meaning.
After I shot the bastard, he thanked me. He even sent a card a few weeks later saying how grateful he was for the whole learning experience. I totally got canucked.
