Anyone know where I can find Nowhere Boy online? I want to see it SOOO badly, but I doubt it will ever come to mainstream theaters around here.


I haven't seen it around. I'll keep an eye out for it, though.

The complete discography of Yoko Kanno and The Seatbelts (they did all the music for Cowboy Bebop). I have most of the stuff already (and consider it to be some of the finest music ever recorded) but decided to get the little bits and pieces missing from my collection.

If you haven't heard their stuff I highly recommend you do so.

I love the opening music to Cowboy Bebop. I still need to watch the rest of that show.

Yeah, decent show that. Good music. There are some great anime soundtracks around.

Yes, yes you do. The opening theme is great, but there's so much other good music as well.

Yoko Kanno's work in general is quite brilliant and has a quality that makes far greater than mere Anime soundtrack music.

I've downloaded 92% of that huge 100+ Gig ER Torrent you linked me Strat. I hope the show's worth the wait (and the extra external hard drive space I've had to purchase to make room for the bad boy...)

You should have downloaded Battlestar Galactica instead. :)

The FastestFox add-on for Firefox. It's incredible! Really has sped everything up.

I'm not really sure actually! It has a lot of features that increase productivity, it auto-loads the next page for you, you can set it to copy any text you highlight, and there's some features for adding stuff to social networking sites and other stuff built in. If you want to have a look for yourself, it's here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/9825

Thank you. I did a Google search for it, and there seem to be some concerns about privacy, as everthing goes through a third party website, or something! However, it's got really good reviews, so I might have to think about downloading it!

It's had over 5 million downloads, so it can't be all bad! I doubt Firefox would allow something like it on their website if it was a true invasion of privacy.

Next on the list, after a couple of huge HD classic movie transfers.

As of this morning I now have the first 13 seasons (106GB) of ER. It took 6 weeks in total which I didn't think was bad going in the grand scheme of things.Just hope I can get into it - the pilot left me a little cold I'm afraid.

My punt is that I don't think you will. I think you might watch through it all and think it's ok, but i don't expect it'll be up there with your favourite shows.

Heh, I've found something that speeds up Firefox even more now!

All you have to do is make a few internal tweaks, it's really made the difference. :D

New season episodes of Burn Notice and Penn & Teller's Bullshit, plus the first couple of episodes of some new action show called The Good Guys, and some new mystery drama called Persons Unknown.
