Hear me, oh faithful readers
Well that's just peachy! I've had tons of readers lately. I know of at least three people that read my last post, and at least another who asked for my site address. Good stuff! Now of course I have to post for all my readers :D
I downloaded Winamp 5, and I'm loving it. It's actually quite similar to WA2 in terms of adding files, making playlists, changing skins, etc. The main thing that I've fallen in love with is the ability to get live radio and television feeds. The tv feeds are always full or unavailable, so I've stuck with the radio for now. I've even stopped listening to my main playlist for now, since I get exposed to much of the same songs in these two radiostorm.com channels.
Why is it that I obsess over things? Just cause it gives me something to do I suppose. I've recently found myself infatuated with the Samurai Pizza Cats. I've even ran into a few people who love the show too. I don't think I've found anyone that hates that show yet, and John hates almost everything I like, especially anime. I've spent way too much time trying to find a decent wallpaper, but since those seem to be lacking, I may wind up making my own.
Slayers boxsets are going pretty decently on eBay. I'm not really that big a fan of the show, but good anime is good anime. Buffy the Vampire Slayer has some good prices on eBay as well, I'm not sure where to put my money. Oh, and in cause you think spending $100 on a boxset is a waste of money, let's look at this logically, shall we?
Logical argument #1
Slayers episodes: 25 mins each
78 eps in boxset, for $100
$100 / [78 * 25/60] = $3/hour
BTVS episodes: 25 mins each
22 eps in each boxset for ~$40
$40 / [22 * 25/60] = $4.36/hour
Most new movies: 2 hours, for $25 => $12.5/hour
Damn cheap movie: 2 hours, for $10 => $5/hour
Logical Argument #2
What's the price of convenience? How many of your favourite shows have been cancelled, or are on at an awkward time in the day? Now you can watch what you like, when you want it. No commercials, no missed episodes, no integral plotline details missed. You have the internet for news, weather, and everything else you need TV for. Just cancel your TV service and put your funds into things you want to watch.
Well, I suppose those are my two best arguments. Oh, and I'd like to point out that I used the bold tag way too often in this post. I apologize. It's a shame there's no underline tag.
I think one day, when I have no more content to make HTML for on the main page, I may construct shrines to my favourite cartoons (Beast Wars, Samurai Pizza Cats, Trigun), or at least the ones that don't have decent fan pages devoted to them.
