What we’ve been up to (or, what we’re saying we’ve been up to).

Okay, it’s a little late, but here’s a DIY DHARMA Initiative 2-liter cola label:
DHARMA Initiative Cola (2L)
It’s similar to the Insanely Great Tees cola label that they had to pull down months ago. (I guess that’s why I never bothered to produce one before—that, and I don’t get soda in 2-liter bottles.)
An orange soda and [...]
Miss T and I are back from FanimeCon, an annual Memorial Day weekend celebration of all things of, and related to, anime.
Back in the day, say seven or ten years ago, some of the main reasons to go to an anime convention were to get info on Japanese shows, buy anime merchandise (videos, books, toys, [...]

…are available at the Davis Amtrak station.
There’s food. There’s drink. There’s restrooms. That’s pretty much all bases covered, right? The kleenex is appreciated during cold and allergy season (which is now—the allergy part, at least). And, the fire extinguisher is no doubt required by law.
On the communications side there’s a TV in the waiting area [...]
