    Japanese Dramas

    Lately, my wife and I have been watching Japanese Dramas. Fortunately for me, there are alot of fan sub people who translate the dramas and give them english subtitles. They are really quite good. Sometimes, they make me think of leave it to beaver, but other times, they are quite enjoyable...

    Batman: The Dark Knight

    It is a good movie. I recommend you to see it. To bad Heath died, I would have liked to of seen him in another sequel. Do not believe the hype though. Believing the hype is a one way ticket to disapointment. I wish Katie Holmes was in it though. Not for her acting ability. There is one...

    Chatting - how many people actually still do it?

    Conservativeness vs Liberalness arguments of the past

    How many poeple here have found that thier "views" of the world change as they age? A few years ago, when this board was alive with libs vs cons, i was more liberal. As I age, i become much more conservative on certain things. For example, I love my medical coverage in Canada! It is great...
