Not sure about Leverage but here's the first episode of glee, HERE!

Sorry to bring up an old topic but just managed to watch this film finally. Anyone who hasn't yet seen it should, it's on youtube or you can watch the whole film Here (just wait for the box to load beneath and then watch it in the browser) Now the film: Oh I cried. Thats the first time I've had to use tissues due to watching something on tv in about 10 years. And just as I stopped, I'd cry again. This story is tragic and I'm so thankful it got told. Sigourney Weaver is a great actress, she's always been one of my favourites but now I love her more. This film is one of the best films I've watched. Period. I think it should be mandatory for all humans to watch. Ok maybe that's too far, but films nowadays spend millions of dollars on creating utter **** that does nothing but make money for the already super rich. This film has a smaller tv budget and actually does some good in the world. That's just another reason it's amazing. Well done to everyone involved in this, especially the real Mary and Bobby. Whoever said he didn't die in vain is right.

If anyone thinks Glee on Fox is embaressing then cool I like an embaressing tv show. It's the right amount of hilairious and cheese. I don't even like musicals :S But I guess I'm a GLeek.

Thanks guys! Bit of a weird 21st in japan. Big night out in Tokyo and then spent my actual birthday asleep in bed, lol. No presents as it's kind of hard to get anything sent here but i spoke to all my family and had a nice day. People say your 21st is a big deal but I guess it isn't really in england anymore and it definately isn't in japan. Another year older and none the wiser

Hi from Japan! Here's my new best friend Hachiko (anyone that hasn't read the story of Hachiko should definately do so): And anyone that thought the Statue of Liberty was in New York is wrong. Lose 5 points. It's in Odaiba in Tokyo.

Happy Birthday...from the Future!

Ok so I've been in Japan for about 4 or 5 days. I'm living here for a year now as part of my university degree. I wasn't scared or worried before I came, just I knew that it would be difficult and tried to prepare myself. However since it is the first time I've been to Japan and it's not like a tourist holiday, it's living here, sorting out loads of registration forms, household supplies, university etc. I'll happily admit I'm slightly overwhelmed. No amount of book learning or television documentaries prepare you for the culture shock, literally everything is different, from showers to getting on a bus. Everything has a completely different system to what I'm used to and I find myself doing things that make people laugh. Alas, I have inevitabley become "a stupid foreigner". I've found myself wandering around going "That's so weird", "That's really funny" but then I realise, no I'm weird here, I'm the one who isn't normal. I have to intergrate into their way of working, not think "Why am I buying a lunch ticket from a vending machine to give to the lady who's stood next to the vending machine and therefore knows exactly what I want?" With that, I'll end it for now, probably upload a photo or 2 when I can get my camera working, and study hard as communicating at the moment is not going well for me. This is one of the hardest things I've ever done. That said, having already spent a year in Israel as a child, I can only think how lucky I am to get to experience another culture again, and that I really should make the most of every moment.

That was awesome. Really made me laugh.

Agree totally. Unless I'm missing something where "bisexual" is read "whore"?

Automatic cars aren't that popular over here so yeah i drive a manual. I like it as i feel more in control though to be fair I've never driven an automatic so wouldn't know :S. Unfortunately my car (who i call wendy as she is blatently an old lady) does not like me being in control and so often "plays tricks" on me like fall out of gear or make her breaks ocassionally not work.... Hahaha.... If I were a boy racer and thought I was cool I'd probably stand like this in photos not as a complete joke: Luckily I'm not delusional.

Fail Blog! keeps me entertained for hours. For an odd sense of humour Jamie4U is funny. Just read from the bottom posting upwards as thats in the archives and you want to read the 'incredible' journey he goes on. It has really 'awesome' posts like: I'm 98% sure its a joke blog but 2% of me kind of wants it to be real...

Thankfully This Beast got discontinued. How much does that thing weigh to have more than some people's daily calorie intake in a cup? It's probably more like a bucket of shake. That article and the top 30 health food one scared the hell out of me.

すみません、 英語で: Well obviously in english it isn't 5,7,5 but I think it's roughly Light Brown Trees, Leaves changing colour in autumn, It's beautiful. Translated japanese haikus never seem very good.

茶色の木 秋に紅葉 美しい That probably isn't correct japanese at all but since I'm gonna be living there in 3 weeks time I thought I'd give it a go. Fail.

Love her or hate her, you can't help but admire her and the other people involved in making this episode of My Life On The D-List as she takes on bigotry and fights for gay marriage: http://www.youtube.c...h?v=B9IxKzHjlOM At first I was shocked when the gay youths didn't really know about Matthew Shepard then I realised they probably had enough to deal with (mormon parents). It was Kathy's mom Maggie (an irish-american catholic) crying during this ep that really got to me. EDIT: Other parts in Drew's post as it ruined my links and made them not work

I think I've rarely taken revenge on someone. If people are in the wrong or have been a **** to someone then rather than screaming at them, getting violent or trashing their stuff, even at times when I've been the most angry, I'll sit down and tell them calmly to their face what a **** they've been and that they need to think about what they did and apologise. It usually gets through to someone much better to see in your eyes that they've hurt you and screaming and yelling solves nothing. It just gets windows broken *rolls eyes at some people I know* As for when someone has done something and it isnt one of those things where you talk to them about it or someone you don't care about, then I tend to do what jamessavik does and bump them up to near the top of karma's list. There's usually nothing spiteful about it, it's just sometimes the best plan of action.

Happy Birthday! I had a google session for that story and came up with nothing. Perhaps its been deleted? Sorry that's not a very good present. So I made you a cake instead? But I couldn't send it you on here. Total mess trying to put it in the USB port...

WTF is probably the only thing that somes that up. Horrible story. Horrible woman. I think I'm in shock, I have no idea what to say. :|

Theres a site just for uploading podcasts to called http://www.podomatic.com/ and on it you can get your own page and all that stuff. Of course they try and make you pay more to go pro but my friend used to get thousands of listens a week on his and he never needed to upgrade so I guess that'd be ok. Good luck with whatever this project turns into!

Linda is a right little homewrecker even if she is a widow. Pepper will bounce back.

I always thought gene therapy was one of the most amazing things when I was studying biology. Seeing how it can be used in treating cystic fibrosis as an example was something I really excited about - there's something quite satisfying about the thought of using a strain of a virus to infect people with a cure. Gene therapy is still pretty new but yeah maybe one day something like this could work. *fingers crossed*

When you get time, I think this should be the first episode with the 6 parts down the side. Here! All the other Torchwood: Children of Earth parts are on that guys' channel. Just be prepared to join the devastation festival we have going on here

If that is even slightly hinting at saying the "younger generation" hasn't faced any sort of discrimination, hatred and stereotyping you have then honestly that's being ridiculously self-indulgent. To say that that is the reason why some younger posters are enjoying the film, as though we're oblivious and uneducated on the quite tragic past faced by many and still some today is just dumb. The films childish, immature and full of dick jokes. If anything that is why you may be seeing a pattern. As for the film: It's obviously not oscar material, but i've seen worse attempts at comedy.

Voted. He's in third at the moment.
