If it is something you would watch, surely there are others out there that would also watch it.
jc_blitz:
heard about your back, how is it doing now? i havent really been around, and probably won't see you guys until saturday when i go to start the process of fixing up that floor.
We have a house!
WASSUPWITDAT???
Yup, we're homeowners. It's been a bit of an emotional roller coaster ride which has resulted in both of us getting sick (the dust didn't help, nor did the lack of sleep), but we made it. Now comes the months of unpacking and re-arranging.
I'm actually pretty jazzed about this. When we first started talking about getting a house, i...

Congrats to you and Cairo on the new house. You know, I haven't even had a chance to congratulate you on the marriage. Wish you the best with your new home. Looks like we both have something new to celebrate.

Horray!! Congrats on the house hon Now you get to do the real fun stuff... decorating 
Now you get to do the real fun stuff... decorating Ok, so it turns out that MICA's 2D animation program is actually pretty good (and, depending on what i hear from the faculty when i have my visit/talk with them, could be REALLY good), so i'm going to try and get in there. Problem is that it's REALLY friggin' expensive, so much financial aid will be needed. Probably some scholarships, grants and human sacrifices as...

Hey dude, congratulations on your new house!
Fuck.
So i found out today that the animation school i've had the goal of saving up for and attending no longer teaches 2D animation. As far as animation school go, this was really my only option, since we can't afford to move out of state, and every other animation school in this area sucks, curriculum-wise. The only thing that i can do at this...

Ha ha ha You rock. NOW I'm entertained
That sucks about your school no longer teaching 2D animation!! Why would they just cancel it like that?
Why not take everything BUT the 2D, then when you guys can afford to, transfer somewhere else?
Thanks for the smile hon, it's nice to hear from you

Well, I hope it works out for you I'm glad that it's a better class than it appeared to be a year ago, I'm sure you'll figure something out for the costs.
As skilled as you already are, it will be worth the money! I'll see your name up in lights one day and say I knew you when, ha ha.
I'll cross my fingers for ya, but I know you'll get it all figured out

As you all know, i'm an artist.
I used to go to anime conventions all over the country in an attempt to sell my artwork or various characters. I'd sell prints, take commissions, and generally work like a slave prior to the con, during the con, and for a solid month afterward. I'd usually break even at least, and i turned a profit a few...

Yeah, it's a lot of work to get through such a focused event, especially because you're always trying to make sure you put your best foot forward. There's also the risk of losing motivation afterwards when it's time to do all the new work.
Otakon is a great con, I'm sure you'll enjoy it if you go. Good luck!

Hey man, how have you been lately? It's been way too long since the whole gang got together. Are you going to be free for the event on the 7th?
After reading some things on this site (current events posts, arguments on the boards, in groups, etc), i have to say that sometimes i really hate the fact that i'm black.
What i'm finding in general is that people here (and in life in general) really don't understand when i have a problem with some kind of benignly racist attitude, or when they jokngly say...

I think your post is extremely intelligent and well thought out. I understand what you are saying, and feel bad y ou have to put up with all this mess. Unfortunately, ignorance is easily cured only if the person wants to educate themself.
xanderknight:
I have gotten the "whitest black guy i know" comment numerous times, and all of the time it was by one of my white friends. how i could smile in their faces all the time, and not know that all they could think of is how "white acting" i am. I actually had this one guy at my job say to me, "i am blacker than you". I pointed to my skin and then towards his, and said, "I am blacker than you will ever be, i was born black, you were born white....CASE CLOSED". Speaking improperly, listening to only rap music while slurring and/or PURPOSEFULLY abbreviating/hacking words in normal conversation to sound cool IS JUST NOT ME.....i was given an education for a reason.........and it seriously upsets me when people say shit like that. i can totally see where you are coming from, and it makes me very mad. I agree that African-Americans should be due something......even if it is a formal apology from the government.
nice rant Marcus.

Wah.
Hey guess what? Cairo's Fight set is back up!! Woohoo!!!!

Naked chicks? Naked guys? Furries? Sci-fi? Martial...

Would you consider doing something with me and a big belly? More info later.

Like "liberty"?
Thanks for the compliment. I don't think Keith Olbermann would seriously consider collaborating with a Seattle-based night watchman (the term is so much more honorable-sounding than "rent-a-cop"), but I won't be stuck here forever. We'll see.
ZOMG! An update!!!
I am currently in Syracuse NY with Cairo visiting my family for Thanksgiving. She's going to be meeting the majority of my family for the first time and i'm sure that it will be... educational. ^_^

humans are silly, eh?

I have Comcast too but I never had to deal with that shit because the deal I got when moving in was free installation. And anyway, even if I wasn't, I'd just play it like one computer was being connected, and then after they left I would hook up my router, because unless they're giving me one modem per computer, it's none of their business how many computers I have.

Well, Cairo and i got legally married on Tuesday.
That's what prompted my last post.
I'll pause now so that you can pick your jaw up off the floor.
