Don't get me wrong tho, I did like Rose Madder, but compared to some of his other books the story line seemed a bit odd in the last 1/5 of the book. When they were both in the picutre world (probably mid world?) and they kinda did a minotaur chase thing.. it kinda lost me there. and don't bother reading Gerald's Game. Theres a small connection to Dolores Clairborne in there, but thats all the book has going for it. bleh. Yeah, lady mentioned something about the witches books being good too. I'll have to check those out.

Anyone read Anne Rice? Another book that I finished a while ago was Interview with a Vampire. That book just dragged on and on for me. And half of Memnoch the Devil should have been completely discarded. But lady has told me good things about The Vampire Lestat, Queen of the Damned and Tale of the Body Theif.. So I'll have to finish up the series sometime this year. Thats a shame. \ Is it better than Rose Madder or Gerald's Game tho? I wasn't impressed with either of those.

hmm, it could have all been a coincidence tho. Sharon said there were 8 more cylons in the fleet, so that other 6 might have been one of them. *ponders*

ROTFLMAO! X'D When we first watched that ep, we kept skipping right back to that moment over and over again laughing our asses off. X'D I love these screenshots!

I just finished Michael Crichton's book Congo, which was pretty good. I'm reading Sphere now and by the way its reading, I have a feeling it'll be a better book. But I'm really looking forward to reading Eaters of the Dead next (aka The 13th Warrior) its amazing how most of that book is based off a true story. *dies of anticipation* So what are you reading, have read recently, or are about to read?

seriously!? I don't think I caught that. Man, I need to re-watch the season finale. *must buy season 2 dvds to encourage more battlestar production* I wish they'd release the rest of the second season on dvd already. \

I was shocked as all hell that she had her own angel-baltar. but yeah, sometimes she seems to know things that Baltar shouldn't, but other times she reacts more like shes the embodiement of his instinct... There has to be some other kind of connection between the two of them if they both are visually seeing each other like that. oh.. and maybe she doesn't know that the baby is alive because sharon doesn't know that the baby is alive. Kinda like if what one cylon knows or believes to be true, all cylons think the same? Maybe like a level of shared knowledge or conciousness like the borg in star trek?

The filler eps are almost done, Jiyara is in the next ep!

I haven't used Nero in forever, does anyone know if it has the ability to burn avi files into region 0 DVDs?

luffy's face kills me.

I just switched to this Starcraft Ghost one recently. I'm lazy about changing my wallpapers. I had a Gaara one on for the last 3 months.

I had a feeling that this was coming. Damn, I wished Lunar would have been able to finish this series. \

sweet! oh, and we have seedlings growing! a couple of my tomato plants and some of lady's lupine are already sprouting up!

you're kidding! I didn't even notice that. hmm, you're other topic is making me think they may have had an oversight about the pegasus numbers now.. either that or they didn't want to change the 49,000ish number in the opening. What do you think might happen? I doubt the cylons will "farm" the humans here, and slave labor seems kinda pointless with their massive army of drones. I wonder if they'll rule over them.. or try to integrate with them.. What if these cylons are a renegade group from the total cylon collective? Maybe we'll see some cylon vs. cylon? But if that was the case, then why would that cylon that starbuck tortured be there? hmm.

I thought about that too. I'm guessing she didn't have the time to keep up with an acurate number anymore. And keeping a constant correct census of the entire human race would probably require too many unproductive resources just to keep a number updated. I wonder how many ppl are actually left now. Its probably around that same ballpark figure tho.

It looked like D was the new XO of the Pegasus, and Helo was doing Gaeta's or D's old CIC job. Knowing Adama, I'd guess he never let Sharon off the Galactica.. and that would make sense as to why Helo was one of Galactica's active crew when the clyon's finally showed back up. I bet Adama made the fleet jump away in order to save the ships, its not like any of them could fight anyway, they'd just be targets. And with inadequate fighters and crew, what else could he do? \ But even with their crews at half staff, I don't see how the two battlestars can take on that massive cylon fleet (I saw at least 2 basestars) with the rest of humanity grouped together and one nuke away from obliteration.

Now that season 2 has actually had it's finale.. holy shit. "One Year Later" Do you think season 3 will cover that missing year and the events that lead up to the cylon occupation on new caprica? or maybe they'll just skip that entire year and go on from here. hmm... I don't think they would waste an entire season on just the political side of things and rudimentary stuff like making a settlement. With no cylon interaction, the main military cast of galactica wouldn't have much of a role to play. Of course a little insight into a couple of the key characters would be good, but I think they'll continue on from where the cylons arrived. Cloud 9 was nuked! I didn't see that coming.. but what kinda irritated me was that within 5 minutes of that happening they skipped a year into the future. It kinda tore away at the significance of such a major ship being destroyed. \ Starbuck got married? Cali is prego with the cheif's kid!? *dies* Waiting until October is going to be a bitch.

I use itunes for cds, and Ulead DVD MovieFactory for data dvds (came with my dvd burner drive).

Drunken Fist! X'D

I'm still watching Gundam Seed Destiny (only on episode 16), but I have come to hate Cagalli. Every episode she is in, she is constantly bitching and then having a shocked look on her face. I have never seen someone get so wide-eyed shocked so damn much. I've even come to expect it of her. Has anyone else noticed this?

September 13, 2006. I've found that alot of publishers are slow to update their sites with release date info. But TRSI is usually the best place to go for pre-order info and release dates. Their pre-order prices are usually good too. http://www.rightstuf.com/cgi-bin/catalogmgr/NF2TADdG4koU9N5C70/browse/search/5/4/0/0/results/desc/asc/50/1

*bought one* That damn thing sucked ass. \ It can take off small or micro scratches, but most visable scratches won't come out. A guy that sold them told me that every cd has 15 layers of coating seperating the outside of the disk from the actual material inside the cd. and he told me: "With enough buffs, this thing will remove entire layers off the cd to get rid of the scratch, but if you remove more than 3 layers of this coating you could permanently damage your disk." I dunno if that was all true or not, but yeah, I buffed the hell out of one disk to no avail and it won't even partially play in a cd player anymore. And you have to keep the disk constantly moistened while doing it too. what a pain.

Use a lint free cloth and star from the center and whip away, then rotate the disk slightly and do it again and again. Don't whipe the cd on your pants or rub it on your shirt. And cleaning it like its an apple on the front of your shirt will only cause micro scratches that could further damage the disk.

I love that Nakama sig!

Another of my favorite eps is when Kagome's friends finally meet InuYasha. X'D I can't remember the name of the episode tho. That was cute! ^___^
