Hardware question and anime

[thistlechaser]

First, to those hardware-wise folks out there: Do they make a sort of splitter for audio-out on a computer? My speakers have no jack for a headset plug, and there's only one audio out hole on the back of the computer. This means when I want to change between speaker and headphones/mike, I need to crawl on my belly to get to the back of the it. No fun! (And dusty!)

Aishiteruze Baby is so so so cute! Gah, it almost makes me want to have a kid of my own! (I watched #2 today, #3 is downloading right now.)

I'm so behind on my watching! I have a Twin Spica, two Kino no Tabi eps, one Monster, one Midori no Hibi, one FMA, and one Aishiteruze Baby on my 'watch immediately!' list! Plus a bunch of stuff I was in the middle of catching up on (*sniff* I miss Full Moon wo Sagashite!), and some new stuff I had downloaded pre-FFXI. If only that darned game didn't demand full screen and no switching between windows! It's such a selfish game. :) But man, does it know how to keep your attention! No matter how much free time you have, the darned thing can expand itself to fill it! So much to do, so little time. :)



Oh boy, oh boy! This was a good ep. It was great seeing all the fathers again, especially the one or two we hadn't seen before! I need to watch it again to see Kiba's family and their dogs! Wonder why it was mostly only fathers who were ninjas? Why not an equal number of mothers?

Unfortunately I had been spoiled (twice!) on the Third's death, so I was expecting him to die, but it was still way, way, way touching. *sniff*

It's hard to write up what I think! So much happened in the ep, I feel like I'm still processing it all. I suppose this is the end of the arc? Or maybe one or two eps of wrap-up before the end? Either way, I'm ready to move on to something new; as good as this ep was, it took way too long to get to it.



Zoom! Back to FFXI to check the moon. If I can't fish yet, then I'll return and watch the new FMA ep (yay!), otherwise I'll watch it later.

Happy Tuesday, everyone! :)

They do. Do a search for 'dual headphone jack' or for 'headphone splitter'. I know Mac makes one for the iPod that will work on any computer and it's fairly cheap. I use them all the time for my students - we use a lot of software that gives auditory feedback, and since the students are in classrooms they have to use headphones. I order them these spliter jacks so their educational assistants can also listen in.

Argh argh argh! I will not be able to read this post properly until the end of April at the earliest! I'm glad that Naruto #79 was worth commenting on and hope that it is such in a good way and I hope I'll be able to reply to this post properly then.

Good luck with the computer issue!

Yep, it was a good comment! I hope you like it once you get to see it, too!

Thanks!

I really liked the conclusion of the naruto gaara fight. :x I never expected him to be fighting him...it was really well done. ^_^ Very cool. XD And I was sad Hokage died ;-; but he wasn't like the most beloved character, but he was cool and influential, so it was a good choice. But I really liked seeing the parents too. XD
