Josh may be "at the top of the gay tree" according to Google, but I (Edward Goodwin) am simply

a native of columbia
planning a 400

both of which are total lies!

Of course "Ed" creates much more true results.

ed is hottt timeless timeline
ed is he a good man
ed is a union issue
ed is a recipe for disaster
ed is more fun than this
ed is hott
ed is a god
ed is here
ed is the greatest?
ed is needed here
ed is pleased to provide comments on draft
ed is hard to ignore
ed is an uncle
ed is making her pussy wet for you horny college
ed is laying temporary power cables above ground
ed is as effective as traditional instruction

Beware folks!  I'm layin' my temporary cables all over the ground!  Combine that with the way I make all the college kids wet and you have yourself one jam-packed (no pun intended) hentai film!

watched the first episode of the first season of "24" last night.  Audrey and I borrowed the DVDs from my parents.  It was an impressive show, very well done.  The only thing that got to me were the little montages of everyone where they would break to commercials during the season.  That wasn't a big deal and  I think it was made more obvious by the DVD, which had no commercial breaks.  Everything else I thought was movie-like in it's execution.  Much higher standards than I'm used to seeing on television.

Since we've been travelling so much lately I think I might push to stay in tonight and watch 2 or 3 more episodes.  I have a feeling the sooner I'm done watching this the sooner I will be able to get on with "real life."  This already appears to be one of those shows that really sucks you in.

I don't want to watch the second season because I want to wait for it on DVD.  Which brings up an interesting point: the shows ratings are determined by its TV viewers, but how many people like me are there out there?  How many people will not view it on television because they want to watch it in sequence on their own time?  I'd imagine for a show like this quite a few.  It would be a shame if they stopped producing episodes simply because they thought the fan base was gone when it really wasn't.

Still, if the "Leprechaun" series of movies can go straight to video and DVD then I assume that "24" can too.  If the Hollywood execs see the fan base on television disappearing and the fan base on DVD purchases rising I would imagine that they would change their release strategy accordingly.  Then again these are the same people who are in a pissing match with the public over file-sharing.

Six stocks to avoid.  I disagree with some of their price valuations, but I do agree with all their assessments.  It's funny because these are all the stocks my friends and family have been so up on lately, and that I've passed on for much the same reasons as stated in the article.
