Ghost in the Shell (1996) (Japanese title: Kôkaku kidôtai), based on Masamune Shirow’s manga, was beautifully executed and I watched it again this week in anticipation of watching Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence (2004) (Japanese title: Inosensu: Kôkaku kidôtai).

Very interesting search engine… (e.g., especially when looking to discover new music similar to your tastes).
Also something amusing that I found by accident in the middle of my noctunal search for new music.
My brother is a funny little lad… and playing with a new Web cam at that. For the 2002–2003 Holiday season, he wanted one of those Micro Racers—supposedly the smallest radio controlled cars in the world… but I never got around to getting it because all those sites looked like dodgy spam warehouses…
[google:Hooverphonic]. Interesting name for a musical group from Belgium. Even though I had seen the name floating around on the net for a while, I had actually first heard them in Chilé through a fellow Belgian, and my first impression was that I wasn’t impressed. Then I thought no more of it…
Well, Monday it is again, and I got a book (UK import) from Amazon Canada over the weekend by Willy Russell (renowned English dramatist of Educating Rita and Shirley Valentine).
