I feel sorry for him, too, but not nearly as sorry as I do for that kid from Texas named "Espn."

I remember that there was some guy in my neighborhood who named his kids after the Teenage Muntant Ninja Turtles.

Well at least he can cover up the names to be inspired by the Reni. Painters.

Best "Krylin" can come up with is that he was named after Krill. The stuff Whales eat.

Yeah, until his friends are old enough to watch DBZ, and go over to his house and see all the DBZ stuff his dad has. It's all over then.

Oh I was at work, I work in a law firm and I nearly jumped when I saw the article on my boss's desk. The article is great and I have had the pleasure of going to the store myself. It's wonderful there, like a kid in a candy store. I usually spend way too much there and NOW they started their animerental thing which I am going to enroll in. That store is the greatest and that article was a thrill to read. I LOVE ANIME.

You must have a reson or something for "not being down" with AnimeNation ?

There's really no point in saying that if you aren't going to give a reason.

Yeah, I'm with tempest on this one, anyone who doesn't like anime a whole bunch would probably not like Animenation. But I'm under the impression that anyone who comes here to this site must have at the least a deep love of anime. It's great. Its a bit on the small size, there;s not that much space when you have a lot of people there to move around but if you want something, all you have to do is ask and it's there. I love it.

I will have to say that the amount you like anime doesn't figure into whether you have some deep like of Animenation or not. I think it's great that they are doing so well, but at the same time, if they didn't exist, I wouldn't even notice. There is a store here that can get ahold of pretty much anything I want, so I don't really have a need for them. Should I ever need to order from them, I will.

My disdain for them stems mostly from their website. I don't live anywhere near the store, but I'm sure I would never visit it if I was. I could get their stuff cheaper anyways.
