I am too lazy to sort
Fucking finally.
I blame Google for keeping it alive. But I’m sure some dude is going to keep it going. Fuck those guys. And fuck Google for keeping it alive. THppppttt on Android for pretending to.
Adobe, let me know where you bury it so that I can merrily dance on the grave!
Again, I blame Google.

I’m gonna post this, but it will be gone in a few weeks because of the copyright police. For now, though enjoy!
Hadashde summer isn’t my favorite of the three singles from last year, but everytime I listen to it from the live I love it and join in with the rest of the fans on the call…
Hai! Hai! Hai! Hai!
Also, 3rd Gen! And an Ayatii blunder!!
So good.
Let’s go to Japan in November to help close out their tour!
AKB48 opened there ticket booth to international fans. It’s not like I’m buying anytime soon, but it’s nice to know that you can at least try to get tickets. The mother ship, AKB Theatre, is probably a tough buy. I would try for one of the sister groups out in the sticks, perhaps NGT48’s or HKT48’s theaters in Niigita or Fukuoka respectively.
Maybe I’ll try on my trip to Japan…
It’s been a few weeks since I saw Wonder Woman. I can’t believe I have not wanted to write this review. I need to get on with being the blogger that I know that I am.
Here: good. For a DC movie. That’s a low bar. Even Ant Man could step over that one.
I’m a Marvel guy. (Make mine Marvel!) DC comics was never one to catch hold of. There movies in particular are just grim. Sarting with the hyper-real, The Dark Knight, they took a tone that borders too much on realism. It’s just men in tights. To imagine the super heroes as something more is too ridiculous. DC’s somber tones just put me off. When I give these movies 3 star, they are barely are.
Wonder Woman is less somber a DC movie. There’s some joy there especially in the playful romance between Chris Pines’ Trevor Barnes and Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman. There’s also some grimness as Wonder Woman confronts the world for the first time and sees the horror man has made of things. Overall, there’s sun in this film and darkness. But at least they got rid of the grim tone.
I liked it, but this isn’t a Marvel movie. You should watch it and decide for yourself.
3 of 5 stars.
Have you thought about the best movies of the 21st century? We’re only 17 years in, but there have been many, many good ones. Run a search for “5 of 5 stars” on BrowserMetrics and you’ll find a few.
CatWoman? How’d that get in here. Never mind. Ignore my 5 star ratings and find some on your own.
Anyhow, they are still making lots of good movies, you have to go out a seek them. Today’s link should help you find a few.

I have not had the urge to watch movies lately even though summer movie season is in full swing. The last film I saw was two weeks ago, Guardians of the Galaxy: Volume 2. Yeah, I know. There’s been a few other summer films that have come out since then, but I haven’t seen them. I’m still waiting for one that will make me want to go to the theatre. It’s going to be a while.
That said. Volume 2 was alright. You can’t beat those A-holes. A little too inside comics for my liking — too many characters popping up that I have no idea who they were, and I read Marvel comics in my youth. O well, just went along for the ride.
3 of 5 stars.
For my baseball partner in crime, Orioles get a W against the hated Yanks and Adam Jones hits an Earl Weaver special. He did it just as we were doing FaceTime.
It’s been a long time since we’ve talked. There is the 12 hour time difference, and I could barely hear a word she said. Yet, we had some fun.
A W for @margeemateo bday! #orioles #camdenyards pic.twitter.com/eSbPVmxhRU— Broderic Gonzales (@browsermetrics) June 1, 2017
Yeah for a W!
Even better as nice present to my good pal, Marge! Happy birthday!
It’s a 13 hour time difference between here and Japan. Here being the east coast of the United States. So you’ll have some Nogizaka goodness for breakfast as you watch two members promote their latest album on SHOWROOM. You just have to get up real early!
If you participate, don’t forget to throw some stars!!
And don’t forget to wish Nishino a happy birthday! 「お誕生日おめでとう西野七瀬！」
Nogizaka46 3rd Album, 「生まれてから初めて見た夢 」, “The Dream I Saw the First Time Since I Was Born.”
Get it.
Got it.
I don’t think the new songs are as good as their first two albums. The songs sound too much alike. The only saving grace is that there are some funky units, member pairings, that make for some interesting songs. I’m always up for alternative member units.
