  anyway its still bullshit, he said disc for disc, so maybe hes comparing vcds with dvds

  the reporter should still have checked her facts
  
  the Odex people in Singapore are dickheads anyway

  Is that right. I don't recall coming here last weekend.......
  
  The font is not superlarge but it's... a size bigger than usual and I can't downsize it There used to be a down/up size font control somewhere... right ? Or am I hallucinating? x____x

  i think the site ran a prog which affected firefox and MSIE changing their fonts to superlarge unusable sizes

  Several years ago, before Bandai USA released Love Hina on DVD here, I mail ordered the 3-disc Odex box set of that series from Popular Book Store/Company in Singapore. The video transfer wasn't bad, but the subtitled translations seemed like they were done by people for whom English was a third language. The subtitle text was chock-full of spelling, grammatical and translation errors.
  
  I'll probably give Odex products a miss in the future.

  despite all their profits and money into subbing and digital transfer, they remain way below fansubs

  damned sleepy.. blanked out for a few seconds.. as in.. totally blanked out...
  
  found myself leaning back on the chair..
  
  and i'm hungry too
  
  what's this i see before me?
  a kitkat bar in all its crimson glory!
  should i devour it right now?
  or resist the temptation somehow?
  
  i give in to gluttony's calling
  i find myself furiously chewing
  ahh.. on the kitkat bar i munch
  now.. i await.. lunch
  
  i love such bad writing
  especially about eating..
  to stimulate hunger
  and annoy the gentle reader

  yeah.. anyway, most homicides are done in rage and the killer is not thinking.. that in itself does away with the 'deterrent' thing...

  erm i realise i don't travel on airplanes much but the last few times i did, i could see chicken/meat if there was some......
  
  of course maybe it was hidden. but if he didn't even bother to look, i wonder about how he managed to keep to his diet for so long
