can't get the .asx file to run...

this race is purple's race, no doubt.

green...green...rahrahrah!

eta: last.

5th this time, getting better!

2nd, score!

i was rooting for purple too. didn't think he'd make it through the pack at the end.

Goddamnit.

much better at home, now that i can actually see the riders and the streaming is not so choppy. back to work shortly, though...

Blue!!!

2:18/otsu race> green (as usual). now. 12:18EST

anyone?

edit: damn...only like 4th.

otsu: yellow. he's due again.

AKell, are you taping these races by chance?

nope, just watching the net streams. I'll try to capture some of tonight's races though.

many tracks have 'digests' (replays) available on their websites, though they are usually the last ~2 laps.

otsu

Good find. I saw the Otsu page but the wmv files don't seem to be available. the downloads stall.

The second race on http://www.itokeirin.com/ondemand/kako_1.html features a crash, if you're into that sort of thing.

dudes: my work computer has all of the silly media players disabled, the execs here don't want us workers passing around funny vids through email and such.

my computer at home is connected to the internet via an ancient dial up connection that takes at least 5 minutes to download a regular picture from anywhere on the net.

how can i watch these things? is there a way to download them and dvd them? i don't know too much about that sorta stuff.

i'm on the case.... hmm...

(but, dial-up? foreal?)

seriously, dial up. and not even fast dial up. it is so bad that i have only connected to the net at home 7 times in the past year (no exageration).

ps: the only way to jazz up a monthly office birthday party (where all the february birthdays had to be celebrated on one single day) is with ice cream cake. the only way to make this ice cream cake digestible is to brew a pot of that coffee you sent me! the office thanks you immeasuarably
