What the heck?

I’m participating in American Censorship Day, which is the reason for the scary message. I definitely do NOT want that ridiculous bill to pass .

Anime 101

I certainly wouldn’t be the first, nor the best to write this post, but I think I’ve got a solid basis to, so I’ll tackle it. Keep in mind I’m not saying there’s a set order you should explore anime, or that some are more difficult to follow than others, just trying to make the ride, initially, as free from jarring changes as possible.

VaultPress

Now, this looks mighty promising. Premium WordPress blog backup service. I’m keeping my eyes open.

Update: I got a @reply to my tweet from what looks like a competitor, blogVault, offering the same type of service. Competition could be good.

My Japanese Name

My authentic japanese name is 猿渡 Saruwatari (monkey on a crossing bridge) 籍真 Kazuma (take part in reality).

Interesting. I kinda like the feel of Kazuma.

And….once I got the order right (I think.):

坂本 Sakamoto (book of the hill) 国海 Kuniumi (country ocean).

Take your real japanese name generator! today! Created with Rum and Monkey‘s Name Generator Generator.

My Luck Is Good!

Doing a bit of questing on my alt tonight. About to turn in a quest and took a bit of a detour (on a whim) to see if I could spot a very rare creature. Looks like the hunter luck was with me tonight…

RV or Train?

It’s been quite a while since I went on a long trip. The last out-of-state trip I took was last summer’s family trip to Vegas, but the last multi-state trip I was on was nearly a decade ago. Vegas is a decent hop from Southern California, but I’ve been thinking a longer trip would be fun. I’ve yet to really experience the east coast of this country, so that would be a trip I’d like to plan out and go on for a long vacation. How do I get there?

It would be a super long drive and perhaps an RV rental would be fun, but I’d likely be taking a solo trip, so a train trip or flight is what I’m thinking. I don’t mind flying, but I’ve never been on a cross-country train ride. That’s what I’d rather travel in for a long trip. What about you?

 

Would you rather drive across the country in an RV or go by train? [From That’s My Answer! » Would you rather…]

Things to do when the WoW realms are laggy

Since the realms are currently down due to some mailbox issues (I have immense sympathy for the Blizzard IT guys…), I thought I’d begin making a list of things to do when you’re in the game, but otherwise can’t be doing the things you usually do in the game (quest, level professions, gather mats, etc.) due to the crush of players that are going to hit Northrend and the Death Knight starting areas. This list will probably grow over time since there’s at least one maintenance period a week in WoW. Here goes…

This is pretty cool!

Hammer (MCHammer) is now following your updates on Twitter.

Yeah, yeah…..I know. It might be an assistant making sure to follow people who are following Hammer, but still; it’s MC Hammer! I don’t feel any more important, but it does feel kinda neat to know that Hammer might see my updates.

And….the normal amount of creepy…

BINGO!

393Px-Bingo
One thing I’ll be doing at Blizzcon…playing BINGO. No! Really…

Whatever happens, make sure you print out your bingo card before you go, and then throughout the weekend, cross off everything that you see on there. If, by the end of the weekend, you’ve nabbed five across, you win!


I’m printing my Bingo card right now…
