So yeah I went to http://www.abc.com to watch LOST online and i get "Only viewers within the United States can watch these episodes".

Hopefully Obama will change that.

Says that when I try to watch Battlestar Galactica episodes or webisodes. So annoying. The internet is developing borders and soon they will be restricting all sorts of content based on country.

Canadians say "eh" at the end of sentences a lot, so he subbed "A" for "eh" cause it sounds similar.
