Hey, i'm not dead yet

As per normal, i am here to whine and make excuses.  In hindsight, i really shouldn't have determined to read all 4 books before writing the articles, especially since one of them arrived late.  However, now that the this is over, you can expect some articles in the next few days.  First off I'm going to try to explain/justify my bias towards White Wolf in general, before I finally release the articles.  

However, I've also been hindered because for Christmas, i got Silent Hill 2, the Orange Box, the Witcher, some Boggart films, and I Cladius, so do you really expect me to focus too much on writing when i could play portal?

Hey, EE. Glad to see you're still around. I thought you should know that I'm still using your signoff as your sig -- either the mods haven't noticed yet or they don't care about the reference to a banned poster. Lot of good arguments that never happened cause you're not here.

The playground misses you.

Dude, thats just plain awesome on so many levels my sig thing, great move. I think teh mods won't mind, through tippy might. I'm glade to see you around. Yeah, i miss the play ground, and i just avoided being sucked into face book in response (yikes). I find it ironic that my presence leads to lack of arguments.

Anyways, great to have you. If your interested in posting anything on my blog, just let me know (elijahz@webjogger.net). If it isn't too much trouble, would you mind making a link to this place in the playground (maybe in your sig) so people know i'm not dead yet.

Thanks to see you, wonderful to have you around

I've had a couple of PbP games with Tippy. My opinion of him is now and forevermore "screw him."

Actually, there are still plenty of arguments. It's only the good ones that don't happen.

I'd be happy to link to this blog in my sig. Gonna make the EE part a link...

Happy 5th January, EE! Why must we celebrate the 1st of January if January the 5th also only came around once per year.

Aanyway, I just got something interesting that reminded me on you. Someone got a garage sale and they have this particular interesting piece, a full set of Eroica (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eikou_no_Napoleon_%E2%80%93_Eroica) manga by Riyoko Ikeda (a really old manga, from the 80s, I suppose). It's a manga about... Napoleon. Yes. That corsican hobbit got himself a manga dedicated exactly for him. And it's a shojo manga, that is, manga for girls. Heh. Well, the author was famous for his historical manga though.

It's so amusing that I had to buy it. I don't know too much about european history though, and that made me think that you obviously would appreciate it more.

Too bad that I can't find an online version of it. I really, really want you to read a biographical manga of napoleon's life. Think all of the amusing repercusion. Just slightly less amusing than what would happen if you found a manga adaptation of lord of the ring. Well, maybe you'll be luckier than me and found the online adaptation.

Have a good year!

I screwed up the link. How to put a link here? Sheesh. Let me try again.

1) Tippy isn't a horrible person, i just disagree with him a lot.
2) Thanks for the link, now that the new year is over (and now that i finished portal of course) i intend to get those five reviews i've written but haven't finished editing out as quickly as possible, along with WG's awesome video game idea. Then Mid terms come up, so i might vanish for studying, but i hope to at least get a small article called "The alignment of the anti heros" in, where i do the alignment of Scar (manga and Anime), Guts (Pre Hell and post hell) and Everybody favorite Watchmen masked manic Rorshach.
3) Ironically enough i got the Napoleon mini series, which i hope to review as soon as possible
4) Dude, a napleon manga? Awesome. I"m going to check that out as soon as possible. Ok, this might delay future articles, but its Napleon
5) Also, general reference for manga, Vinland saga is an amazing manga if your into vikings, or historical stuff. And if your not.......its still one of the best mangas i've ever read, and i've updated it to my top five mangas out there. If anybody else knows good historical mangas, let me know as i'm, if you haven't noticed yet, a big history buff.


Happy new year and a late marry christmas

Hey, just want to jump in. The mods blammed me for having your signoff in my sig, just letting you know. And can I just say, since you're departure, Media has been almost unbearable. Also, why the Tippy hate?
