Since I am a relatively shallow person, I would like these things to be finished:
Harry Potter Books (shallow-ness)
The new dual-cored Intel processors
Naruto [the anime and the manga]
Inuyasha
Full Metal Alchemist
Initial D
. . . (list too long)

Serious things:
Bonifacio Global City (Manila's 2nd business district)
Reclamation Area (Manila's new financial district)
Manila's MRT lines
Twin Cities LRT lines
. . . (list too long also)

I'm not the only person who thought of anime?

One Piece is the series for me, though. Unfortunately the show is about to be ruined by its dubbed and edited debut on Fox Kids.

Full Metal Alchemist huh :D Somebody's been bit torrenting. Hopefully they will release it here and do decent voice acting.

Ever watch the Eva dub? In episode 26 they have a black guy do the voice for an asian guy...very humorous. And then other people have southern accents. Quite funny. "Aye shinji when am aye gunna gets to pilut un eva tooo".

Anyways I'm hoping that nanosolar finishes that new inexpensive solar sheet there working on. Must have toast in future.....

I want to finish my fusion reactor and charge all of you an arm and a leg, I'll have a closet full of em.
You observed it from the start
Now you’re a million miles apart
As we bleed another nation
So you can watch you favorite station
Now you eyes pop out your sockets
Dirty hands and empty pockets
Who? You!

Get the fansubs then. Original audio, high quality, sourced from Digital TV (if I remember right).

Finished Gundam Seed last year, now looking out for Ghost in the Shell SAC2, and Macross Zero. Yeah, I'm part of the old-fogey sci-fi crowd.

Adolescence.
There'll be war, there'll be peace
But one day all things shall cease
All the iron turned to rust
All the proud men turned to dust
So all things time will mend
So this song will end

A quick, random evolutionary process that would cause water to be stored in fat cells. People love to talk about how great the human body is; I personally feel a bit weird when I think of my body as a cohesive, biological entity, but bladders are pretty goddamn dumb and I'd love to see a better way of using all of that water that's being pissed out.

The problem is, of course, that not only is economics bankrupt, but it has always been nothing more than politics in disguise... economics is a form of brain damage.

I've got 'em, up to ep 105 (the series is past ep 200 in jp).

It's just annoying that people who know I enjoy this series will think me a complete idiot when they see the dubbed-edited version. I may be an idiot, but I am far from complete.

The original audio soundtrack is much better and clearer. Last Saturday, I watched the English-dubbed Gundam Seed on my local station - darn, far cry. Sounds, effects, explosions all muffled.

Robert Jordan's 'The Wheel of Time' series. Damn long winded writer.
