Hmm, I haven't seen any cartoons yet. I'd like to see the Russian ones!

I know Futurama is cool, but I don't watch networkTV much. So I really
don't know.

They are the islands 180 Km south-east of Tokyo. There is major volcanic activity.

Sol Bianca, after seeing the first two episodes, is really good. Lots of
