Ok, I have been watching anime for a very long time and I'm going to choose titles the made the biggest impact for: the '60's: Mach Go Go/Speed Racer, also Kimba the White Lion, The Eighth Man, Gigantor. The '70's. Space Battleship Yamoto/Star Blazer...
I just checked with my dad/landlord. He paid $150US installed for a very heavy duty mailbox on a 100mm x 100mm(4x4in) wooden post,treated with custom nameplate. I'm sure I could easily get laser cut custom nameplates for under $50 and very nice ca...
I haven't kept a vest in my car before, but it seems like a good idea. I've been caught out in bad situations with flats recently, including a memorable two in one night, on the same wheel. Regular tire and donut combined with bad roads.
Jeremy Clarkson is big on wearing proper safety clothing when jumping the gates. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ekpD06P7kiI&feature=related another classic
Another idiot on a bike: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lgoTTJbnJvY&NR=1 Somehow i don't think wearing a helmet would help either of the guys on bikes. A helmet doesn't protect what isn't there.
You know, those gates are there for a reason and not paying attention to them can get you killed. For some reason a lot of people ignore them. I stopped at a grade crossing when I was visiting in Savanah GA and I was passed by four cars coming up be...
I had about three or four hallway meetings today. Got lots done too. That with my computer being down for the count for half the day as IT chased a virus.
Shooting in NYC is like shooting fish in a barrel. There is always something interesting to find. I've been taking a camera for the last few years and finding all sorts of stuff, especially around Union Square, the Village and Canal st. To say not...
It's large, yes. The largest, I'm not sure. I know some people who have collections going back to LD's and video tapes. In fact my own collection is quite large and in DVD's alone is probably larger than two small bookcases. If you buy this stuff...
Looking at the video it appears that his house has a large 2 car garage. Is this his spare car or does he use the garage for something else? He would fit in perfectly here in the NY area.
How about offshore copies of figures that they have already run. It's frustrating because offshore you sometimes don't see a show for years after its gone and forgotten in Japan(Aria) and by the timeyou start looking for figures the first run is imp...
Very good time management indeed. He did have a couple of slipups in the beginning and I don't think he got much coffee. Still he would make Frank Gilbreth proud.
Seeing that Raiders of The Lost Ark trailer makes me feel old. I saw Raiders for the first time as preview with a forgettable Roger Moore movie(The Wild Geese) as second billing. Loved the ending with the warehouse. "Our top people are on it."
I like the Yamanote line train but the maid is cool too. I think that the train was supposed to show how both Yodobashi's Tokyo stores were on the Yamanote line and connected by the Sobu Chou lines as represented by the green circle with the yellow...
Quite simply this is one of the best thought out job ads I have ever seen. Off and on I have seen thousands of ads that all emphasized the wrong things or were concentrating on a particular software package or whatever rather than real skills.
OTOH there is the recent release of the live action Dragonball movie, the less said the better. If you can use the plot and character material creatively the result can be fantastic regardless of the source material. Otherwise the results are going...
The kitchen in my last apartment was about twice the size of that whole apartment. In the US jail cells that small are considered cruel and unusual punishment.
Danny where did you hide all the paper. Or were you smart and banish the printer to the third floor. Those glass tables look like a good idea when I get rid of the big metal desk and the stuff underneath.
I went to Murakami's show at the Brooklyn Museum last year. If you think that these are weird you should see his paintings. He did do some more otaku friendly stuff before getiing involved with the NYC art scene and being subsumed by the dark side.
One thing that its taken me all too long to learn is not to be afraid of what others think of me and take my happiness from what I am and what I like rather than what somebody else thinks about what I'm doing.
If this package is packed the way I have received packages from HLJ the contents should be undamaged. Everything I have ever got from them(resin kits, models, figures,books, model supplies) has come through with more than adequate protection and pack...
Been there, done that. It gets really fun during the "Ahh!, we just found out the design won't work!!", "the customer didn't tell us about this!!" and "yes the deadline was moved up a month!!" stage. Though the burning smell of boiled oil and skunke...
Other than lunch money, the only time I carry cash in any quantity is when I'm going to a con or something and I expect the dealers to take cash for the most part.
If you like outlet malls you will love Williamsburg and rte 60. There are several as well as the Williamsburg Pottery which is worth a visit all by itself. Va. Beach Blvd has a bunch too.
