Wow! I never thought of the bestiality thing... Hahaha.

I watch True Blood, which I think is entertaining but not great. Haven't seen Twilight and I'm not too familiar with the books, either.

On twilight, its very simple, let me 'splain it:

Twilight is the new Phantom of the Opera for today's pre-teen/teenage girls

///oh and I'd see phantom 5 times before I'd see Twilight once
//but i'd still see Twilight if it was on tv or nothing else good was at the box office
/slashies!

k thx bye!

Thanks for using my coin!

Those balancing rocks were cool!

Now that Zadi is gone (for awhile), when is the "single man" party? :-)

Twilight. What more must I say? I have read the books and enjoyed all of the, very much but once the movie came out things got crazy. I haven't seen the movie and don't plan on it. I don't know about your city but here, people end their name with Cullen, adorn themselves with Twilight clothing, and talk non stop about Twilight. It's wierd. Like the latest obsession 0.o

And thoes balancing rocks were cool. Amazing that it's nothing but balance. But what happens if the wind comes???

I know, I was wondering the same thing about the wind! I mean, it's one thing to balance one rock, but some of those are like 4 or 5 balanced on top of each other. Pretty amazing.

Vampire bloodlust! It's true .... almost all vampire stories have a high content of romance. I guess the appeal of it is that vampires are presente3d as the prohibited thing. And somehow they make all vampire girls really hot.

So somehow the "freudian sex thing" works for them. True Blood has a bit more of a "human" approach to vampire life though. And Twilight too, but i have to see how they have translated that to the screen.

But i like both Twilight and True Blood ...just finished watching the first season of True Blood and i can imagine that I'd watched it every sunday as it was supposed to be I would have been waiting eagerly for the next episode.

One thing I like about True Blood is that there are indications that there's a much larger world inside our own. Not just vampires, but shape-shifters, telepaths, etc. I hope they expand that kind of stuff and make it really wild. I love the idea that there's more that we haven't seen in our world.

I like that idea too. Some parts were stupid but mostly it was a awesome show. I like also the way they give vampires a more human approach, specially with Bill. They focus on how hard is for him to live a human/vampire life, because he has to do things that Sookie may not approve.

LOL @ earwax. I have never been a big fan of Pioneer headphones. The last Pioneer headphones i purchased were the SE-NC70S and in about three months the right side died out and the battery life was crap. What I do like about pioneer is the sound q...

Well I have the 2006 80 GB classic & the 32GB iPod touch both sound qualities are great but I must agree about the classic being better. I've been getting alot positive feedback about Sennheiser so I'll give it a shot. Thanks for the info!
