This is a pretty interesting topic seeing as I leave to go up there in the morning. I'm catching the 6:30 a.m. out of Haneda tomorrow with a couple of my bros. Last time I went was about six years ago, so in my eyes I'll let you know how much it's changed. All in all, I hope for good times with the bros, a much needed break from work, lots of beers and hopefully a chance for some good uncut powder.

I do agree, watching it on the computer is not that appealing. So I do is convert it to a DVD format and watch it on the TV. That way I can kick back on the couch, drink beer and watch whatever it is I download.

I got it yesterday. It was pretty good. Again I will be awaiting next episode.
This is probably another topic but if you want to use a pretty fast and reliable downlad service check out Easynews.com . It's $9.98 US (unfortuantely not free) for 20 Gig a month and it's got everything you can think of.

That will reind me to do the conversions at the airport next time I go to Thailand.

I was just curious. I haven't had the chance to download it. A couple of my colleagues got me into it and now I'm at the point where, weekly I can't wait until the new episode comes out.

I once too suffered from this lack of insulation problem. My house is nice and warm now. I have heated floors insulated walls and dual paned windows. It's very very nice in the winter and cool in the summer.

I tend to just use the Japanese. I wonder though if it frustrates some of my friends that speak English very well. Once, I was told by a friend of a friend that "I speak English, please speak English to me". I replied to him "I speak Japanese, so please speak Japanese to me". He didn't care too much for my response though. I felt it was appropriate though because we were all together and he wasn't speaking English to anybody else that was Japanese and neither was I.
I used to see a Brazilian girl that didn't speak English and chose to speak to me Japanese. When she couldn't think of what to say in Japanese she used Spanish because I don't speak Portuguese.

Are there any "LOST" fans out there? If so did you watch yesterdays episode?

Paul is a cool guy. I met him when I was in H.B. partying with some of my bro's. He's a good surfer too so I guess you couldn't go wrong.

Just got back from Niseko. Yep, six years changes a lot. Not that it's a bad thing, but there was about 1000 time as many Australlians there this time compared to last. Still had a good time though. Met lets of cool people and saw lots of uncool people. It was a lot warmer that I wanted it to be. Wasn't counting on the rain, the near zero visibility condition or a stomach virus either. The last day up (yesterday) was clear and way to warm. I was just happy that the toilet was across the hall.
