Sweetness. Excuse me for a sec. "Hey, is it frozen down there?"

"Yes."

Why does it seem like that CNN tracker thing is usually the furthest thing from news? Anyway, it is kinda cool that they had anime on there...it must mean it's selling more. Anime selling more equals making it more mainstream and that means more money for the anime companies which means more anime here. So yay....I think!

I was at work so I was not really paying attention, so I only got a brief look before it went by. I do remember Heat Guy J being on the list, though.
