Random questions...

[rebness]

1) Dear Americans,

Do they sell those little chocolate Kinder eggs in America?

2) Does anyone remember a cartoon from the late 80s or early 90s, American, about these children who would go to sleep of a night and become super heroes in their dreams? There was a little dinosaur toy that came to life, a boy on a skateboard, a bossy girl... can anyone remember what it was called, because everyone I've asked remembers the cartoon, but not the title.

ETA: The savage sc1ssors1ster reliably informs me that the cartoon was called Potsworth and Company, after the smarmy dog in it. Yaaz!

3)After my computer was re-programmed following The Great Crash of '05, I've lost my DVD playing program, though of course I still have the actual DVD drive. Does anyone know of a reliable cheap or free driver I could download for Windows Media to play my DVDs, or a DVD playing program?

Also, Doctor Who was fab, as usual. Etc, etc.

I'm telling you - http://www.badwolf.org.uk/index.html is the scariest creepy front page I have ever been to. Dr. Who is seriously excellent, and Capt. Jack deserves to last into the Tennant era.

I know which cartoon you're on about! But I've spent years trying to remember what it is also!

Ditto to Doctor Who! Er... which you know of already :p

What about the one where Eric eats a banana and then becomes Bananaman???

Never heard of the cartoon... And no to the eggs unless it was a specialty European shop.

1. Not American but in Canada, they sold them only during Easter. So, when I moved to HK and they sold them 365 days a year I was in shock.

2. Never heard of it.

3. Power DVD. Not cheap but reliable. *cough*go pirate*cough*

You can get Kinder Eggs in specialty stores, but I order them online for my daughtwer occasionally. She discovered them when were in Ireland visiting some family and friends and she loves them.

1. Never heard of them until now. I have no idea what specialty stores would have Kinder Eggs either. (don't mention these to Jessica)

2. I have no idea about this cartoon and neither did my stepson, the one who knows every cartoony thing since time began. Sorry.

3. I dunno. I don't have a DVD thing on my computer. :(

Dream Warriers wasn't it? I had a crush on the Asian girl in it.
