Is it from Excel Saga, perhaps? Or that wierd little guy from... that show... what show was it? Dammit. Obviously one I never watched much of... I don't get enough anime. New obsession - the six episodes of Full Metal Alchemist that exist in my house.

Getting warmer with Excel Saga. Still need a name though :p

And Full Metal Alchemist is the DVD that's always sitting in the anime section everytime me and my friend go hunting, and he never picks it up (I never buy anime, I let him get it, and I watch/borrow it)

Latest one bought was Shadow Skill. Anime ninjas. Sweet.

Edit: After checking my sputnik profile, I can now confirm that Growing up should happen, especially after my last Black mages comment

Ah, good. Now, I've got resources in the department of OTT anime, so if "Excel Saga" is hitting it close, it might be able to get it sometime soon.

The best way to get what you want. I ususally don't buy many CDs, because I know my father has similar tastes and often gets them himself (Coldplay, 'Phonics, etc.) and I usually end up with them.

What I've seen of FMA is pretty good. Interesting overall plot and storylines, especially when you're dealing with alchemy and stuff. I am unfamiliar with Shadow Skill... but anime ninjas are always a bonus.

Never grow up. I enjoy your company is it stands right now. I freely admit that I am a big nerd. Hell, I'm gonna look into The Black Mages sometime soon myself. I sit around listening to Radiohead and checking my various webcomics, including AMD, Megatokyo, and one about D&D (Order of the Stick). I go on here all the time. I watch whatever anime/read whatever manga I can get my hands on. I'm in three D&D campaigns.

I'm not helping this situation any, am I?

Adam Jones is GOD 03-30-2005 09:24 AM

Nope, not one bit :)

But thanks for reminding me about MegaTokyo, my friend is constantly looking for their published books, and I now know where they are sold. Yet I forgot to tell him, so I best pass that message on soon.

And Nobuo is coming to the US again, with his Orchestra and The Black mages. I cant remember where they are playing, but since they are never coming to the UK (bastards), I make it your job to go and see it That's if its at your end of that big place over the pond.

87% this morning. Struggling through hard mode on my own, but going for a few more Co Op missions tonight I hope. I've taken a break and gone back to LOTR:Bfme again, just to kick Minas Tirith's arse to the ground and defend it, all in a day

That, and currently doing my weekly job seach/applying for/reciveing rejections. i cant clean forever goddamit!

Nice job, IaJP! Let's all be happy for the man.

I hope you get a real job soon! If I can help in any way (unlikely), I will! (unlikely)

Get good at it then, I may challenge you online one day.

/radiohead goes onto mp3 player

Im currently tip toeing through my computer's registry, as im attempting a massive clear up to increase speed and performance. (thanks to DBJ thread, it gave me some great pointers and software). So it's like diffusing a bomb, one false click and im back in the stone age. Wish me luck

IAJP 03-30-2005 09:41 AM

I de-frag my computer all the time, it takes ages the first time, but if you do it weekly it takes less than 5 minutes.

NP: Radiohead-Kid A.

Spectrum 03-30-2005 09:43 AM

Good luck, Ben. I really hope your computer doesn't die.

Wanna play Friday, maybe? I would play with you today, but you've got computer work to do, and you've probably got other stuff to do. I could practice some more until I get the controls and the nuance down tight, and we could team up and play a comp-stomp. I mean, I've played all the "Age of" games, and I'm fairly good at tactical strategy games, so I'll probably catch on very quick.

This goes beyond defragging though. This is going through individual programs, procedures, macros, etc, and clearing out those that have no purpose, or no home anymore from deleted programs.

After that, its a big disk check, followed by a defrag. Then hit restart and hope the results are good.

What would Untitled have to say about this?

However, I fell next month its time to return to a bit of metal. Meshuggah's new album is looming and I really should get my ears ready for Download.

IAJP 03-30-2005 09:48 AM

That's because Radiohead are better than any band around at the moment!

I really like DBJ. He's pretty great.

Jonny Greenwood is amazing.

NP: Street Spirit (Fade Out)

See what I mean? Great guitarist.

NP: Airbag

Still a great guitarist (is listening to his three 'head albums in chronological order).

IAJP 03-30-2005 09:52 AM

He isn't the best technical guitarist, but he makes some Radiohead song.
Street Spirit is so brilliant, so sad too..

Paranoid Android's guitar work is untouchable. I've attempted to string together even a few parts of it, and it's not easy at all, it's just so all-over-the-place-but-sounds-godlike

Ben...surprisingly enough I like Mehsuggah as well, to the extent where I actually listen to [I]I[/I] semi-regularly. Thomas Haake is some kind of robot, but other than that, they're an inredible band.

Craig (one younger one): I like your reviews, and would comment on them, but sputnik still refuses to let me log on, even though I've tried everything, so I can't. :( If anyone cares I'm going to start writing for [url]http://www.trust-me.ca[/url] soon, which is run by the infamous Spiral.

And of course, vote Greenwood in R&M, on the grounds that he's one of the most talented musicians (not just guitarist) in contemperary music.[/QUOTE]

I've got parts of it, but a lot of Jonny's guitar work eludes me. The main riff for the second section is nailed, and the high part in the first section.

If only my set up gave me a semi decent tone....

My friend in a band has the tab books for The Bends and OK COmputer, and he had nightmares about them for a good few months. He's now trying to get most of them worked out.

I personally ok sticking to learning Just.

I browsed through the book for OKC once. It was pretty scary.

And I love "Just" so much. I also wish I could play anywhere near that well. Perhaps I'll just stick to learning the rhythm guitar parts.

Ill stick to stealing Trust-me's downloads. My home is here, with my fellow UK/US'ers
