Okay because I'm lazy and didn't bother checking any of the previous posts so I don't know if this question has been asked already. Did Tsubasa ever released a solo CD? I mean I like Tackey & Tsubasa songs (I luv the Venus song and the pv!) but I like Tsubasa's singing more than Tackey and I was...

To all you Americans reading this thread, how would you feel if Native Americans living on reservations decided to have a get-together and burn American flags? I'd bet over half of you will go, "well, they've got a right to do whatever, and sure, we did some horrible things to them long ago, b...

For light reading that's funny, try Bill Fitzhugh. I highly recommend these three books by him: Pest Control - about an exterminator who is mistaken to be a hired assassin Organ Grinders - the shady world of organ donations (before reading this book, I never knew the whole organ donation process was...

There is another place for direct downloads but I hesitate to mention it only because in order to download the files you need to register and have 10-20 posts (I think I might have given the link elsewhere in this forum): http://tvbnation.com It's a good site and they're only 2 episodes behind for d...

Nick: I got mine from one of my really good friends' mom. For some strange reason, I was trying to come up with a nick and then, I started thinking about my friend's mom.

whaling is a very complicated issue, and considering that japan does not excessively whale, japan very much has a right to try to protect its own culture. to tell the japanese to stop whaling is like trying to tell the US to stop killing cows. considering japanese ate more whales than beef before W...

I don't think they have english subtitles for this series - it's just in cantonese with chinese subtitles. However, on TVB Nation - it gives a very detailed summary for each episode.

Chinese drama: either Chor Lau Heung (for martial arts) or Police Cadet II (I watched the first part afte...
