I had a very productive weekend. Evan and I beat super mario world (the one for super nintendo). I think that when we were kids Eric beat the game, but I don't think I ever made it that far. I will admit that this time Evan took on a majority of the levels, but I was playing my part the whole time so I'm claiming success.
Ok writers and studios, I give in. I'll give you whatever terms you want, just end the strike. I'll even stop complaining about NBC doing its own site instead of letting me pay them for shows through itunes (do they really make more than $2 per show per person from ads? - oh, right, I'm not complaining). At one point I thought that I sided with one of the groups, but now I don't even care who wins. Maybe just give me the daily show back to keep me going through the strike - kind of like if airline workers strike they might still do emergency flights.

A couple suggestions to hold you over, if you have a Windows box (or a sufficiently good surrogate):
- you can buy some NBC shows (e.g. Heroes) on Amazon Unbox. Though then you get to deal with either WMP DRM or DivX (can't remember which).
- alternatively, Netflix now supports streaming video. So by signing up for a plan, you get some number of "free" hours of streaming video (e.g. 17 hours if you're on "3 DVDs at a time" plan). The awesome part is that they post episodes of Heroes a week after they air. And no commercials! :).
The Netflix thing is awesome and true, but I don't think you can do it on a Mac, unless things have changed drastically since I last looked (late summer). Sad, sad, sad.
btw, THANK YOU SO MUCH for the souvenirs from Japan-- haven't gotten around to reading yet, but it sits happily on my dresser.
