You has Mac things...hence why you suck. I still very much miss my Mac Book Pro. I do hope you'll use a computer cooler on your new baby. The Pro ones like to overheat.
I'll just add that little pond that Nick speaks of (18 hrs of fly time there), and being in the holy land that is Japan in the anime geekdom. Anime isn't cheap there, I looked at DVD's...we get cheap anime here..we really do. So if you really want, since you don't like dubbed, learn Japanese. So you can support anime truly. Americans at this point are becoming lazy and think we deserve everything cheap to just about free. Japanese otaku drop a lot of money for their fandom, we need to support ours or we just flat out don't deserve it.
I'm into a certain j-rock artist, and I will drop a ton of $$ for their CDs and DVDs, fans that just sit there and download their whole discography and want rips of the DVDs I rightfully paid for irritate me. True fans spend the $ and support the art form they love. Fans that don't support the art form are wolves in sheep's clothing.
So when these anime companies continue to drop like flies...I hope people will wake up soon from their delusions, before its too late.
Well this just goes to show you that this retailer is doing poorly..and well I've dealt with people like this on a daily basis (4 today alone). I'm very, very tired of the craziness this holiday bring out in people. I think next year I'll crawl into a hole for the entire month and eat chocolate...
I find it a tad ironic that you have been naming your fictional cons after food, and then I walked past their table in the vendor room, and was like ramen..mmmm ramen
If it gets too bad the county you live in will declare a "snow emergency" which means you will be told not to leave your home and if you are caught out driving on the roads, they will take you to jail. So make sure you have what food you want in the house before then :P

Oh Indiana...I will tell you now you are going to laugh at them when they close school for a few inches of snow. The county I lived in Boone owned 4 snow plows , and they used to close the whole county after a few inches of snow and you will be arrested if they catch you out there driving on the roads. They never clean the roads properly due to the reflectors. There will always be a layer of slush. We've been rear ended twice in bad weather down there.
Its quite sad really, my family was confused by them and their lack of equipment and well, would close school for low temps and a dusting.
But at least you'll actually have flowers by April :)
When I lived in Indiana...I learned quickly in High School not to talk about my political views with my fellow students. I know in history class, there were several individuals that believed Ronald Reagan was a God. And I was once labeled a communist there. After I moved away and my friends backed Obama and donned bummer stickers on their cars. They would find their cars or stickers vandalized. Or people would come up to them and feel the need to tell them that they are wrong, just for having a bummer sticker with Obama's name on it.
Last night I watched the news, seeing Oberstar in the lead, and went to bed thinking he won..only to learn he lost by 1% the next day...lossing by 4,407 votes...knowing full well 3 of my co-workers didn't vote and don't care. Too many people were "depressed" and didn't feel the need to go and vote, and all the angry people in the country got up and out...and now these idiots will show us why, voting with anger doesn't work.
The whole tea party thing makes me want to punch babies..but then I don't punch babies cause I know that's what they want me to do..then they are winning...
I'm a geek woman and very proud of it, and since I went to a liberal arts college for women, I was taught how to be assertive and to empower myself. I also do a fair share of gaming, and that's about the only place I see where the view point that it's a "man thing" comes in. Of course I've beaten a fair share of men in video game tournaments, so they get quiet rather quickly. Women or "geek girls" need to be proud and self assured, and these issues won't be such and issue. I'm not magical and I was into unicorns when I was 10, its time to grow up and start being real.
The idiots come out in force when the internet is involved. A close friend of mine here in town was riding his bike home from work and was struck by a semi truck. The only news story done on this was on the internet by the local channel. It was very vague and they didn't know much about what happened. But the comment section under the article ended up in flame wars, and some comments were flat out mean and rude regarding my friend. So in the end I'm not surprised.
Well it was thought that if you move the clocks back and forth it would screw up how many eggs they laid. Even though, more educated people know that animals are in tune with the earth, not a clock on the wall. It was also supposed to be an issue with the cows as well.
Yup no booze on Sunday there...and I was one of the people that was trying to buy a bottle of wine on an election day...and I was told I couldn't do it cause you can't drink and then vote...I was like um I'm not voting today...nope I still couldn't buy it..glad they fixed that stupid law...and that they finally do daylight savings time there and not let the farms rule that it "will screw up the chickens"
Yes Indiana is very flat except the bottom part of the state, near Kentucky. Its full of corn, soybeans, and pig farms (and yes those farms smell really, really bad in the summer). Wait til you have to sit next to a pig truck on the road waiting for the stop light to change. And remember down there when the light turns yellow you run it, otherwise you'll get rear ended.
As much as I enjoy reading these, I'll have to disagree with the fact that every town has hotels that will be a good place for a convention. Cause Duluth has 0, that's right zero. We have three possible hotels in town, and two of which want nothing to do with having a convention. And the third's con space is very spread out and it has a water park in it. The hotels up here are all about weddings, and really don't want to have to deal with weird people running around their hotel in costumes...

I had about the same thing happen to me, actually. Even though my dad was raised Catholic, we never attended church or discussed christian ideas much. So when I went to a Catholic college, I encountered for the first time people "with stuff on their foreheads". Of course, that evening we had a gallery opening we had to attend, and yeah I ended up going to it stoned. So, I saw my art professor and asked her "What is that stuff on your head for?" And was explained it was for Ash Wednesday. But until then I had never encountered it before.
Exactly why did I recently join that community??? All I know is if I really don't want to know what an old high class mate is doing...I'll just hit the ignore button
Totally know what you are talking about. Last week after having 3 days off in a row (for taking care of Anya after her hospital stay), I got back to work and I didn't know what was going on and I felt detacted and lost. So this post makes total sense to me.
Nice...my sister took away my toast for her wedding...I think she feared that I would say something about our childhood...like me trying to kill her with baby asprin...stuff like that
When I was in college many, many years ago...the president of the college, Sister Barbara, once told me that she was proud of Anya and I, due to the fact that we were two people that would actually open our eyes and notice the beauty of the campus, most of the girls there never probably noticed the trees, the animals, and the flowers around them. Hell the campus cat, Clyde, would see us and come running and the nuns he lived with would invite us inside their home because we were Clyde's friends.
People should take the blinders off and look around more often. They miss out on so much.
People come and go in life all the time...they all have a purpose, so when the purpose is no longer needed its time to move on....I'm sure you have gained something out of the experience...I wish you well.

hehe if you have to ask a search engine that question the answer is no...cause if you aren't smart enough to figure it out for yourself then you shouldn't be taking care of an animal...
Hitting 30 was bad..and now every year after that...gets worse....you start to notice things...like your body aging...harder to get up off the floor..ankles and knees making noises...sucks lemons
Well said...and the maturity level and brain level of those people are tres, tres, sa bete. And yeah you are probably right about him wanting you...its probably the eyes : P
Sogen's con suite was a vip room that was locked the entire weekend and they finally gave all the sponsors keys to it by Saturday night...however it offered little and it was never restocked all weekend
