  • too much, dangnabbit

    anime that i want, that is ^^
    but then again, glutton for punishment that i am, it’s not enough.
    i want more, dangnabbit XD

    with terrific new series premiering in japan or finishing up,
    and con season just starting in the USofA, my wallet trembles
    in pitiable fear of the abuse it’s going to take this year.
    shoot, it’s only january and a huge long-ass running series i
    want has been announced as liscenced.
    One Piece rocks. love it. can’t wait to start getting it 😀
    of course, at over 100+ episodes, i quiver to see how FUNi
    shall release it. so long as i get it in subbed uncut japanese,
    i be happy :3

    did i mention it’s only january. how many more cons do i
    have to go before con season is over O_o
    but i say, bring it on. gimme more!more!more! cause i can
    take it. if i can’t get it right away, i will get it before the liscence
    expires, i can gauruntee that.
    and not only liscenced anime, but the slowly growing number
    of limited box sets and special editions is growing too. delicious :3
    r2s is a whole ‘nother issue alltogether }:D especially english
    subbed and/or progressive dvds.

    ~reads MegaTokyo~
    aww… kawaii mushy moment =^^=

    ahem, but i diverge. the point of this rant being… i dun know,
    did i have one ~piku~ amidst all the awesome new anime being
    produced and liscenced and still waiting to be liscenced,
    i can also think of a number of older classic anime i would
    kill (literally, at least) for. age matters not when it comes to
    the anime i love ^_^
    i’d *sparkle* for Rose of Versailles, any classic Matsumoto,
    Future Boy Conan, and quite a few others. and i so gotta have
    my Wedding Peach crack on r1 XD

    that being said, i get my Hellsing vol. 4 with ltd. ed. figure
    on tuesday. aw yeah 😀 mine!mine!mine!mine!
    look and/or touch and die >.>

  • Hey, I was there!

    Showing up on a few places in the last day is posts pointing to the origin of the term ‘SPAM’ (boingboing and jenett.radio being the ones I’m seeing at the moment). I was around in those early days of MUDing and remember seeing people chanting ‘SPAM SPAM SPAM SPAM’ (as do probably more than a few people reading this).

  • Okay, at least I’m not here

    Okay, so it is frickin cold out currently. My normally too warm apartment has a bit of a breeze even. It’s kinda wacky. But as cold as it is where I am, it isn’t as cold as at the Mount Washington Observatory (where they seem to have their own blog

    What happens when you have a bunch of weather freaks up on the summit with 100+ mph winds? They go outside and run/flop around. It has been an amazing night with the winds topping out at 142 mph. I don’t think that I have the courage to face that full on out on the deck. All I can do is peak around the tower and wait for the blast to hit. Have you ever stuck your head out of a moving car?…well this is kind of like that except the car is a NASCAR running the oval. I guess it would be dog heaven, but Nin won’t even leave the comfort of the living quarters couch.

    I can’t even imagine it. 142 mph winds. You’d stick your head outside for a second and it would turn into a block of ice.

  • Sekrit Santa

    So this year I did two Secret Santas. The first was an online one from a web page that hosted it last year. It was pretty cool and I had fun doing it, so decided to do it again this year. Unfortunately, I still haven’t received anything from that one.

    The second one was one done with another group of online friends. And today I got a package from amazon containing some stuff from my wish list. So thank you Mr. Sekrit Santa for the Office Space DVD and Permutation City by Greg Egan. I’m just about done reading a book now so that one will be read right away.

  • What a day

    First I overslept. After getting a bit of programming done I decided to head out to the store, only to discover I had a flat. Not sure what to do I checked out AAA’s web site and discovered I could sign up right there and have coverage. So I signed up and was even able to put in a service request on their web site. Pretty damn slick IMHO. And the guy was great. He had my tired changed in under five minutes, which I thought was pretty amazing. Even then, my ears were about to snap off from the cold by the time I went back in. Tonight I must go to sleep early so I can get to the car place first thing to get a new tire.

  • mahou tsukai ni taisetsu na koto

    I have to agree with Izumi here on this show. I just watched the 2nd episode and I love it. It’s so sweet. It’s one of those shows that kind of gives you warm fuzzies.

    So it looks like of the new season we have three hits. This, Wolf’s Rain, and .hack//DUSK (I’ll write a bit more about that later).
