You know you're on a high-volume mailing list when you leave for a few days and come home to a grand total of 1027 new emails.

Lucky people. I got gonorrhea, and the picture for that was much too yucky for me to want to put on the page.

Well, with any luck in 24 hours I should have seen you for a while ^^;. I can't wait.

Ok, I know nearly no one reads me, but Dini, Sam, could you please get people to help me with this? I need sound files of asuka. Something of her getting hit in various levels of pain - angry voices would work too. Something with her exerting herself like she would in a jump is also necessary. I could also use footsteps on a variety of surfaces if possible. An interesting dying sound would be nice. Some choking or drowning noise. Also, falling (a short hop, and a scream like she's falling to her death). Also, I need a good idea for a taunt that would work with most of her outfits (the one with the notes, her yellow dress, the eva suit, and the school fuku is probably all I'll do).
Also, if someone could get a good shot of the back of her head (with the thingies in her hair), and the back of each of her outfits, I'd be very grateful.
Oh, and if you couldn't tell, I'm making a q3a model of her :)

Heh... I already knew that not all of Cowboy Bebop was aired on tv in Japan... but I just found out that 14 episodes were cut out of it's airing. Over half the series, and virtually all of the plot. CN has only skipped three; Sympathy for the Devil, Waltz for Venus, and Cowboy Funk.

w00tness! SGL has upgraded their 5th mix machine to DDRMAX. Should be interesting, until I finish all the songs. Then I should try hispeedmode.

Hm, wish I knew you had it before I spent overnight downloading it. Oh well.
What's I'm more annoyed at is that just a month ago I deleted inu yasha 1-18 because I wanted to reclaim the gig or so that it was takingup.
Oh, and it looks like I'm going to be limited to 7 cds (since that's all I have left), so I'm probably not going to be able to bring as much as you'd like.

Parasyte

Tuesday, November 13, 2001 - 09:04 p.m.

Dini, take a look and tell me what you want. I'll try to get as much of it as possible on cd to bring up with me next week (already have cowboy bebop movie).

Well. Pitas is back up.
Check out SpaceBattles.com. It's goofy yet also cool. The modelling work is great - the explosions are not quite so great.

I AM 14% GOTH.

I wanna be a GOTH. But I'm not. Smoking cloves and too much eyeliner a goth does not make. I'll go home and take your Cure CD's with me.

Take the GOTH Test at Fuali.com!

Bleh. Bored. Have all of Love Hina. Getting Comic Party soon.

Added to my cata repertoire:

  • No Limit (RM Remix) - 2 Unlimited
  • Japan - Re-Venge
  • Hypntic Crisis - Blue Destroyers

Got my DDRFreak shirt - it's k3wl.

Bleh. Check out what I have to put up with on some of your guys' blogs here at school. It's a link cuz the pic is 1152x900. Don't ask, I don't get to choose the resolution.
In any case, small fonts do not impress me at all. I may be switching to Lynx for reading blogs soon. At least I can always read that.
Repeat after me: Form FOLLOWS function .

Don't stop blogging please, I read you. And stare at the Dr. Pepper ^^;; Hmm I have all the ddr soundtracks except 4th mix, if you want :)

Well, I'm really bored. If anyone cares to join me, you can find me in this really small (read: only my channel) irc network, icenet. Connect to ice-castle.us.icenet.org or lightrealm.us.icenet.org. Hee hee, I'm even in the motd :)

motherf%$^%#... was downloading the non-encrypted KoF2000 rom for use in Kawaks, but the fricking power went out TWICE during it. Took me a total of about 6 hours, effectively. x_x all to play a KoF in an emu that doesn't have support for my gamepad (psxpad converted to USB, I love it so much). Oh well, so far the only emu to support kof2k. I have a modified driver for MAME, but it doesn't work properly because the S1 should be 512kb but is only 128 since the MVS hardware normally has support for only 128k S-roms. bleh.

Will respond to blogs later, if anyone actually reads this besides Dini and Sam.
Before I forget, right click here to get the Star Wars: Attack of the Clones trailer. It's titled breathing, if you couldn't tell from the link.
Of course that only matters for those of us who haven't seen Monsters, Inc. like some people I know.

Hee hee, SunOS5 would be me at school ^^; I use these remote terminals to a mainframe with a 16-processor UltraSPARC2 with something like 20gb of ram. Biggest iron I've ever seen. And I crashed it once ^^;; ls */../*/../*/../*/../*/../*/../*/../*/../*/../*/../*/../*/../*/../*/../*/../*/../*/../*/../*/../*/../*/../*/../*/../*/../*/../*/../*/../*/../*/../*/../*/../*/../*/../*/../*/../
Does the trick nicely. Wonder if they fixed that...

Hmm, just got a check from my aunt carol, belated birthday present. Now I have two choices on what to do: buy a DDR pad or get some SWRPG stuff.

Sob ;_; Barney got to one of my spiffy double dice. It still works, but about half of one side is broken off ;_;
Take that back. The rest of the side is coming off now too. Waaaah.

Rediscovered tie-tanic yesterday, though the one I watched was converted to mpeg and archived on CD.
Jeff got a DDR dance mat yesterday while he was in stockton - took TWO tries, too. Looked online, software etc had some in. Turns out they sold all 5 of them yesterday. Funco had one, so he got it while we picked up pizza.
Grr. Barney also destroyed the tie on the blue dice bag you gave me.

Bleh. bored.

Heh, just checked your blog in the NS we have installed here on SunOS SPARC; never knew you had a js alert for that ^^; It doesnt look that bad though. Prolly looks better in Opera

Sob ;_; The Place is closing down - while it wasn't necessarily the best place to import cds and such, it was my first real place (not like that shitty gamecave that i dunno if its still around), and it was _close_ and they shipped USPS - so in stock stuff would get here the next day. Now they're getting rid of their DVDs, so I advise anyone who reads this to take a look (if you want region 2 DVDs).

Oooh, Evil Dead. My favorite is the second one...

Damn, I never realized how UGLY netscape 4.x is. Supports only the barest minimum of CSS, screws up rendering of other things... bleeh.
I put some thought into maybe learning XHTML 1.0 or HTML 4.01, both STRICT. It'd be an interesting exercise... I've decided I'm not going to even try for CSS2. That's so amazingly complicated, it's nearly a programming language. But at the very least it DOES get those nasty layout tags out of HTML (it's a formatting language. Want pixel-perfect? use CSS).
In any case, it'll be neat to go through w3c's validator and come out clean.

MAME 0.56 was released today, which is too bad since now I have to reget changed roms. *sigh*, I'm 2/3 of the way to having a 100% complete set of roms though. Maybe by the end of the month...

So for halloween I was Cardinal Ximinez of "Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition" fame. It went over well at school. We got virtually no trick-or-treaters so it looks like I'm going to be bringing candy to eat during Java and Japanese.

Well, I suppose that's about all that's going on now.
Oh right - conundrum of the moment. Is it just me or does Utah Saints Theme from Mortal Kombat take from 2 Unlimited's Twilight Zone?

Woohoo, passed two more catas today - Dead End and Can't Stop Fallin in Love Speed Mix.

Hee hee, CSS demos. Rather interesting to look at the difference between IE's compliance and Mozilla's. Worth it to install if you have a fast connection. In fact, Mozilla works amazingly well (and find your prefs.js or whatever, and add user_pref("dom.disable_open_during_load", true); to it. It'll get rid of popups when you load up a page and close a page, without killing popups you click to get. Some other interesting prefs here. Anyway, enough evangelizing; time for bed.

Oh yeah, Dini, I won't be able to get you excel saga for quite a while. Lori won't lend me because I took 6 months to return her FY OAVs. And she's booked up for dubbing off other tapes till January or so, and she's taking an insane number of classes. Bleh.

Ah, yes, one of the classics. I don't think any architect has ever built something, had it fail horribly, build something again, another catastropic fall, build it again, then it works until someone steps in the wrong spot... heh.

Hmm... was at the house of one of the people who run the local anime club. Played some DC games... then did the NES. Dr Mario, Trog, Ice Climbers, and Arkanoid. Best games ever, really.

o.O;;; Google hit me for "dance dance revolution buy pad from toys r us"? That's very very odd. And doing the search, I'm 4th. I also got hit for ayumi hamasaki porn.
Just noticing now cuz I finally decided to get a sitemeter. Which may or may not be visible at all at the bottom.
