Stopped by the grocery store this morning to get some lunch. I had decided on instant ramen because I’m in the mood. Did you know that ramen is such a big thing in Japan that they have a museum dedicated to it? I wonder if the US has a hot dog museum? And where it is so that I can visit it.
If you had read Jon Krakauer’s Into Thin Air, then you know how dangerous K2 is. Here’s some news that K2 has claimed another 11 livesk, and there are still some climbers stuck in the death zone.
The more and more you watch John McCain’s campaign the more and more you get the feeling that he’s just a grumpy old man. He keeps thinking that he deserves to be president by virtue of his service to the country as a Vietnam POW. He feels that he’s entitled to the office. It’s just like an old white guy to always demand it his way.
His veterans status doesn’t automatically qualify him for the presidency. He should be a leader, but I don’t think he is. He’s more like the current fucktard president: wanting it because he’s John McCain and who are you to fuck with him? John McCain is not fit for the presidency.
The US has got another manga publication from the folks at Yen Press. It’s nothing like Shojo Beat or Shonen Jump. It’s got both styles of stories plus Korean Manwha and good ol’ US manga-style comics.
It’s in stores right now, so get it. Or you can borrow my copy.
I saw this a few days back, but posting it now because its hilarious.
I caught both Bamboo Blade and Kimikiss Pure Rouge on Veoh by watching a fansub. A fansub is an amateur translation. They makes it easy to watch the latest anime from Japan. It also makes it easy to watch what may not make it to the States. Kimikiss just doesn’t seem to be for the American market which just wants Naruto, Bleach, or more DragonBall. The fansubbers try their best, but at times they just get things so wrong. It happens because they want to get it out quick. These are some classic unintentional (maybe) mistakes.
I know some of my readers don’t like reading movie reviews. (Yes, I’m looking at you seed.) Here’s a good one on The X-Files: I Want to Believe. Maybe, I am trying to get a handle of what I saw. I really wanted to like it, but instead the film ruminated upon things I didn’t want to really think too deeply about in the summer. It also was more intellectually challenging than what I was looking for in an X-files film.
The Fat War may be over, but there’s still some mopping up to do.
It’s been about four months since the end of that. And we’ve probably regressed and gained back the weight lost. I keep on cycling, and eating summer salads, but don’t gain any muscle.
This plan sounds intriguing. Sounds it any way. Maybe. But if you do 25 pushups a minute, this will take 4 minutes to do in the end. That’s gotta hurt.
Here’s a new search engine. What?! You use something other than google? Is there anything else besides google? I mean my statcounter when I check the search engine references are nothing but google. Maybe there’s a stray AOL and a technorati search, but it’s 100% google 99.98% of the time.
This’ll please the girls.
Four pandas born in captivity help the endangered species. Pretty cute. And wait until you see the pictures. Kawaii!

Working at IniTech sucks. I need to go indie!
Or I just keep on dreaming about it. The antithesis of yoga. Not even the doing. Nor the trying.
