JakeMoore

Ok, Not only is this a topic in which I hope to get some good answers to some questions I have, but It's also My introduction Thread.

My name is Jake Moore, and I live in Mississippi, USA. I started watching Naruto when it first premiered on Cartoon Network. I watched about 3 Of the episodes and then Got online looking to see how far the Anime had gotten so far. Upon finding http://animeupload.com I Consecutively downloaded and watched many epidsodes a day, and It is by far my favorite anime ever . After getting to the last episode that they had (182) I came here by referral of a friend and instantly got a gold membership, this place is awesome!

Now, as for my questions:
Question 1:
I hear everybody refer to the episodes that are airing right now as "Fillers". What the heck is everybody talking about? What is a filler? What is the point of a filler?

Question 2:
What is dattebayo? I notice on the episodes I download (with my gold mem. that I bought as soon as I signed up) that it says "Dattebayo Presents". Then, I notice in the actual show, that Naruto adds Dattebayo to the end of almost all of is sentences? What is the translation of Dattebayo?

Question 3:
What is the time skip and Kakashi Gaiden? I've read around the forum a bit and have noticed people mentioning a Time Skip and the Kakashi Gaiden? I'm guessing that after the time skip is when Naruto gets his cooler Jacket that's featured i nthe site banner. Is the Kakashi Gaiden gonna be where they show how Kakashi gets his Sharingan?

Thaank Yooou!
