I have not taken a ton of pictures since I returned to the US, actually I’ve only taken 55, many of which I will probably never use. I finally got around to culling the mix and picking some of particular merit to stick in the gallery.
Most of them are from around my house, but […]

I have finished watching the OVA for Rurouni Kenshin, and watched the movie. I like the idea that this sequel is really a prequel, “finishing” some really interesting historical (for the character) information, and giving more complete character to a really exciting guy.
Finishing up with the movie was a good bonus for me, partly […]

The big day has passed, the meal has been consumed, and I have a killer headache.
I don’t really know what’s brought it on, but I know that I feel like I slammed into a wall.
The family event was interesting and distant all at the same time. People I haven’t seen for […]

I have been through my normal round of comics reading, and from the last two weeks I feel that this scary go round post is of particular amusement.
Mind you, the idea of evil (yet silly) Portuguese man-o-wars plotting to take over the world is already quite amusing, and the idea of Shelly trying to stop […]

When I miss China, it always helps to eat something i would snack on when I was there.
I love citrus fruits. Oranges grapefruit really make me happy, but tangerines are a little too sweet. If you know Chinese medicine, things are usually separated into things that raise your internal heat, and things that […]

The weekend approaches, and this weekend I’ll be teaching at Splash. I imagine it will be fun and interesting, as it has been in the past.
Splash, and it’s spring counterpart HSSP, were quite literally a lifeline to me when I was in high school. I had come from someplace bad for […]

I added a drawing I did a couple of days ago to the October 2004 part of my gallery. I know it should really be a November piece, but it’s in the vein of the things I’ve been working on of late.
I hope that some of the sketches there will be incorporated into larger […]

Or at least this classy monkey does. While this comic is on hiatus until December, I think there are many fun moments going on there worth checking out.

I like languages and art, and sometimes I think of the two as interrelated. That relationship can be really exciting when I watch something like Samurai X, but also speaks a word of caution somewhere in my head. In thinking over my misgivings on dubbing vs subtitling, I clearly take more of a […]

I have had the chance to watch the first disc of Rouroni Kenshin Samurai X. The style departs from the original series to something more serious and in some ways darker. I like the focus of the story and the cross of history with fiction. There’s not too much for me to […]
