Just discovered HULU.COM...full episodes of TV shows online...SWEET!
Stumbled across a clip on YouTube from "The Simpsons," which led me to HULU.

I haven't had cable for a year and a half. Not a problem for the most part, but sometimes I really miss TV. Check it out:

http://www.hulu.com/

They have full episodes of "It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia," "30 Rock," "The Daily Show," "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" and all kinds of neat stuff.

3. I have a Japanese-American dictionary but I wanna know NOW!
:rofl:

I actually have TWO...one is about 4 inches thick...but it's almost 9:00 and I'm in "winding down mode," so just tell me!

5. Wouldn't do you much good, since it's Chinese
Edited on Tue Nov-25-08 12:54 AM by FloridaJudy
They're the ideograms for "Serenity", which was the name of the spaceship in the "Firefly" series.

7. Very cool!
As you can tell, my Kanji skills are somewhere just below those of a Japanese kindergartener.

9. You had no way of knowing
And they're waaaay better than mine. This and the ideogram for "Peace" are the only ones I recognize.

I've considered having the "Serenity" ideograms tattooed somewhere on me. Right arm might work, since I've already got a firebird on the left.

10. I did that with the first episode of the current series of "The Shield"
There's only one show I really, really miss, and that's The Shield (especially since the final episode is right around the corner). FX takes a year, year and a half to put out the DVDs. I'm convinced that the creators of the show know they won't be able to get away with Vic Mackey eating onion rings in a diner while Journey plays in the background. Salon.com had a nice article on the recent episodes...it looks like they are moving toward something bold and memorable.

13. If you haven't already, check out Three Sheets
It's freaking hilarious. Dude hooked himself up with a job traveling the world and getting drunk on the local cocktails and moonshine....very funny stuff!

17. This validates my decision to dump cable TV and upgrade my dial-up to DSL line instead.
Hulu commercials are very brief, and you can rate each one with a thumbs up or down so you stop getting the ones you hate.

19. So why do I keep getting the idiotic one
About the friggin' shoes??? Who cares if the damned shoes are "hawt": can you wear them for more an an hour without feeling like a foot-bound imperial Chinese concubine, that's what I want to know!
