I don't get angst.

I do understand it in small amounts - we all have our bad days - but in large amounts it gives me a headache. Like, look for Full Metal Alchemist stuffs and you get crap loads of angst. There's Fury angst... WTF? How do you get Fury angst? Did Hayate take a shit on the carpet and there were no paper towels to pick it up? Fury is the happy little techie of Mustang's crew. Give the man some credit.

Yay for the cover of FMA volume 9er. Jason agrees with me that the cover kicks so much butt. Military love, everybody!

I had forgotten how late some of the military gang are introduced in the anime. I think they all appear in the train misadventure in the manga. The club is on episode 6 of the anime and Breda and Fury have yet to be seen. Kinda sucks. Fury's personality is so cute and after the lastest chapters of the manga, I'm really liking Breda more as a character. The anime doesn't really have a use for him, since he didn't become important until...

I wish culture still had the soft spot for that kind of strangness. It's what I live on.

Speaking of which, I had a strange dream last night. The Flying Saucer Drive-In Restaurant in Niagara Falls had been ripped down and I was very upset. Everything was gone except the foundation.

Rachie misses walking around Clifton Hill. My shoes damp with the half-melted slush and salt on the sidewalk, bright lights and neon signs cutting through the night, outpriced souvenirs in filling store windows, the smells of fried and sweet foods floating in the air. Like the Ex had a sudden deep freeze and started sliding downhill to Lake Ontario.

FWWWEEEEE!

14 Prisoners of Gravity was the interview show hosted by Commander Rick that was set in:
a) A weight loss clinic
b) A huge satellite orbiting Earth
c) David Suzuki’s Beard

I didn't think Reality One was that big... I mentioned it as being smaller than the SOL in RPs... whatever.

The greatest EVER happened today.

Signal Loss, my dorky Prisoners of Gravity fansite of doom, is a silly little project I used to fill up spare time. Which, in the winter, is quite a bit, but we all still love Thunder Bay anyway. I DON'T think of Signal Loss as a massively important project. It's, you know, something dumb to work on and research. I love Prisoners of Gravity, I think the show still kicks ass although it's now slightly dated, and Nance pwns all of you. But I never saw the site as anything more than stupid fan fluff. Back in high school, yeah, I thought I was being all cool and stuff 'cause I was building a fan site for an offbeat media series while everyone else was creating sites for pop bands and poop like that. Steff once told me I was probably singlehandly doing something for the fandom. I laughed at the thought, but she did think that Rick and Nan-Cy were cool characters and she kinda discovered them through me.

So I belived that I was just doing crap at random, until I saw this.

Scroll down and Mark Askwith lists my site as a good place to learn about the series. For those who don't know, Mark Askwith is one of the creators of the series. He's a man I respect... and it appears I got a tiny bit of respect back.

I've often joked that The Powers That Be would probably kill me for my fangirlness. It appears that I can now rest easy that I won't be getting a C&D anytime soon.

Hmmm... yeah. Although it's sappy, I'd really like to thank all my friends that have helped me with Signal Loss. Jesse, Evan (sp?), employees connected to the series and, of course, the old gang from the TTPCTS Club, fictives and muses included. Because with an army of Crow T. Robots, nothing is impossible. XD

I'm done.
