I checked out &#8220;Bigger, Faster, Stronger*&#8221; yesterday, and &#8220;Between the Folds&#8221; today.  They are both great documentaries.  Bigger, Faster, Stronger* is about steroid use (in sports and elsewhere) while Between the Folds is about origami.  I particularly recommend the origami documentary for anyone interested in science, art, and the strange intersection between them.<\/p>\n<p\/>\n<p>I&#8217;m pretty impressed with the selection (there are a lot more interesting things that I would like to watch) and the process has just worked without a hitch for me.  I won&#8217;t keep the Prime membership in America because I live in Japan, and can&#8217;t take advantage of the streaming there (as far as I know) but if I lived in the US I would definitely pony up for prime and make great use of this feature.<\/p>\n<p\/>\n<p>Since I work at Amazon, this might come off as blatant advertising, but really I don&#8217;t think you can blame me too much.  \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<p><br clear=\"all\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m currently in America for work.
