I never knew about that wonderful site, thanks a billion!
This is now break down the General election. If McCain has to go VS Obama in the General. I don't see how McCain wins. I hope Hillary gets the Dems nomination. At least their McCain has a chance to win then.
I could see coming down to the Democratic convention of who gets the node. If Obama is ahead of the delegates count and the Popular vote and the Super delegates go with Hillary at the Democratic convention. All hell well break lose for the Dems.
Their be a spilt we haven't seen in the Democratic party since the 1948 convention when Harry Truman piss off the Dixie Dems and they left the party for the GOP party.
I like the United States political system. Once he or she appoval rateding gose under a % he or she well have to win their office again in Canada and western Europe? I’m I right about that.

How about i send you some japanese 80s music that you can be truly embarrassed with if someone walk in and see you sing along to it ;)

One was when Dane for no reason at all mentioned flubber. Then you kept talking for afew seconds before robin william movies actually came into discussion.
I dont think it happened anytime after that first segment tho.

On a sidenote, the audio was slightly out of sinc for a while there at the beginning of the show, at least I think it was. This was by far, the hardest, most arduous episode of AniPac to edit and write shownotes for. The sheer amount of links to keep track of as well as audio editing (we record on two different audio streams, not just via Skype like we used to). The audio occasionally gets out of sync and I have to manually go in there and kind of cut bits out of it to put it *back* in sync. Given the time it took to produce this episode, I guess I overlooked some parts (especially during the beginning I noticed).
I also have to censor Alex's various rants and tomfoolery including:
* His wholehearted support of Al-Qaeda
* His contreversial views regarding the Front de libération du Québec
* His intimate details regarding his family funelling money to the Khmer Rouge
* His Democratic Kampuchea poster collection
* His secret DVD containg the original 4 hour cut of Caligula with the long rumoured horse scene
And finally:
* Any overly hostile comments towards the great one, Kevin Sorbo
p.s Thanks alot for playing my promo guys.
Where'd pink Pac-Man go?
Who am I going to get to clean up my pink dots? Not to mention Pinky.
Also, it appears that part of the new layout is in Spanish.
I will be traveling next week also, but we will put something out.

I'm recording solo at the moment, I'll probably have the episode up today or tommorow.
