its really no different than just downloading a regular file except you need a program that will download .torrent files... azureous vuze is what i use works great no real setup needed. this program is like the old download managers people used to use when they had 56k. but definatelly check it out.. looks of benefits to .torrents just watch out for virus's but thats with downloading anything on the net.

just finished reading ray volume 1 and 2 is very good so far i'll be looking for the other volumes it revolves around a girl named ray that was born on a body farm were they grow humans for their organs and sell their organs on the black market these humans are not given names and have no education...

they are given numbers that are tatoo'd on their backs and rays number is 075-1-74 she decided to take on the name rei which means zero in japanese... 75-1-74 = 0... anyways upon reading the book her eyes are sold for 2 million dollars some guy rescues her and gives her new eyes with her new eyes everything she see's she can see through so basically xray vision...

the books are about her struggles to find out who she really is and she meets her friends from the body farm along the way...

when she was rescued and given new eyes she also gets an educations and becomes a nurse... that does surgery.. with her unique eyes she can see what she is getting into... she is a great surgeon...

don't want to give anymore information away but its worth the buy or read.

I read several Japanese comics, among which my favorites are One Piece and Full Metal Alchemist. I also read Naruto and Bleach, but I don't like those two nearly as much.

The only non-Japanese comic I've read is Batman: The Long Halloween. However, that will soon change; I have Batman: The Dark Knight Returns and Watchmen on my to-read list.

Long Halloween is ace. So is the Dark Knight Returns and Watchmen is just one of the greatest books ever. If you feel like reading another Batman comic, Arkham Asylum is a good one and one of my favourites (oh god the artwork).
