It seems that the hometown team has made it to some kind of championship
game. The town is slathered in purple. I almost bought a jersey, but
will wait until the super bowl week to join the bandwagon. As for
showing home team pride, Itsuki-chan's mood lights are a calming purple.If your geeky enough about football, then read today's links to help you
get out by the numbers on who may end up playing in the big game and who
will win it. I'm not up on statistical analysis of football teams. I'm
like the retiring fucktard president: I rely on my gut feeling. I don't
doubt that these dudes can analyze the game in a way to know who has the
better chance of winning, but like they say, "the football isn't round."

Tilt shift photography is gaining a big following in the world. I think it’s because of the digital camera revolution making it quite easy for anyone to take photos often. You can take many pictures and not worry about how good or bad they turn out because you can always take more again. Practice.

Anyhow, tilt shift photography makes your pictures look like miniatures. Nendoroids are miniatures, but not like that. Check out the site for more interesting photos.

Don’t let Marge @ the FishTank see this or else she’ll go on a ramen craving but find disappointment (and high blood pressure) in cup noodle.

Today’s link takes you to Anime News Network where you can get all your latest news about anime, manga and the like. You don’t need that news? My bad. I thought you were as geeky as me. Today’s link also takes you to where you can watch the episodes free of charge. This type of streaming may be better than downloading a torrent of the anime you want to watch. At the very least, it’s legit.

It’s 4 AM and I just finished up the anime, Welcome to the N.H.K. I strolled through the door about a quarter to one and decided to finish up the third disc of the series, but it got so good I kept going to the fourth. Then the final two episodes hit, and I was really moved. I mean really moved. What Misaki and Sato went through! That second contract was one of the saddest things I ever heard, but Sato didn’t sign it even though it was a cry for help. Sheesh!

This is a real good anime. Today’s link will be a semi-review of the penultimate episode of the series. It’s not mine, but one of the first search results when looking for the anime.
