When my nephew was born, for his first Christmas I was thinking of getting him some Apple stock. I remember the run up to that December 25th. Apple (APPL) was mired in the low teens. I could hardly believe it. So when I found out that (at the time) you could purchase a single share, I thought it would've made a great present. But I talked myself out of it because why would a baby need stock in Apple?Now look at it here. I kept telling myself to buy APPL but never did. Who knew you could become a millionaire betting on APPL? It still keeps going up and up!Today's link is blocked at work. I hope this is correct.http://www.kyleconroy.com/apple-stock.php

Oh, snap! The english dub of Haruhi Suzumiya no Shoshitsu coming to the United States. You can watch it legitimately in SF and in Hawaii when it comes out this summer. I can't wait. Sweet, Nagato! Sweet, Asahina-san! Sweet, Suzumiya-sama! This is some good news.http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2010-04-15/bandai-entertainment-adds-the-disappearance-of-haruhi-suzumiya

Did you know that Akira Kurosawa would’ve been 100 years old this year if he had lived? I didn’t.
The best way to celebrate is to watch one of his films. There are many to see. You could spend a month. So why don’t you?
TCM is honoring this illustrious director by showcasing his films all March. Every Tuesday evening a veratible smorgasbord of awesome is being shown. I know you have it on DVD or BluRay, but watching on TCM is great. You’ll get a running commentary before each film. You’ll do your own running commentary.

I wish more people would read Mitusru Adachi. He’s one of my favorites.
And I wish that they would bring his major works to America, Touch, H2, Cross Game, etc. He’s one of the biggest mangaka in Japan and we don’t even have any of his manga here.

I haven’t seen a blog-a-thon n a while. They were all the rage a few years back. It’s when a bunch of bloggers decide to blog upon a subject for a few days. They write a blog post addressing the topic at hand, submit it to the blog-a-thon co-ordinator, and then read and comment upon all the links available. It stirs up a sense of community in the blog-o-sphere.
Today’s link is to a blog-a-thon about film preservation. Lot’s of interesting links to ponder about the loss of some of Hollywood’s past. It is also about treasuring and helping to preserve what little is out there.

Best way to ruin a good thing.
The bicycle is one of man’s greatest innovations. Throwing an electric motor on it is retarded. It’s like taking La Giaconda and giving her smile teeth. It’s the same but stupid different. It’ll leave your head scratching.
For those needing help up a hill. Walk it.
