Can ones mind encompass the entireity of the future? Is a foretelling a warning or an inevitability? These are good questions to ponder during future episodes.

On Heroes.....it is not so true. At least not in the most simplistic terms.

Be sure to watch the episodes "Company Man" and "Parasite"(17 and 18 respectively). Some of the best TV I've seen in years. But I have a few questions: Are you watching Heroes in Portugese? Dubbed? Subtitles? or is it in english? What kind of schedule is the show shown on? (Once a week or whatever?) And is the show very popular in Brazil? xponent Dattebayo Maru rob _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
